Comments Thread For: Bradley-Alexander Winner Best at 140, Regardless of Belts

I think he gives Alexander hell.

Bradley-Maidana looks a lot like Bradley-Abrgeu.

Not a fan of this hypothetical ****-- and I'm not saying Maidana wins-- just saying Maidana walks through Bradley's punches and catches him eventually just like he did Khan.

Bradley is pretty slick but he's not Floyd.

Pac/mosley in may, Alex/Brad winner vs money in june.

would be good

so bradley is considered the best,but his last 3 fights are:

Abregu(abre who???) Welterweight,out of divsion fight.

Peterson-
good fighter,not great,lost to ortiz last fight,isnt as good as malignaggi,kotelnik or maidana.

Nate Campbell-
not a light welter,a lightweight,fight ending was dubious,headbut,overturned to no contest,dude was old,but fight had only just got started when it ended.

Khans last 3:
Maidana- most dangerous and wild one in the division.

Malignaggi-only lost to cotto and hatton before,got robbed by diaz,outboxed him twice better than marquez did.

Kotelnik-won the title off him,outboxed him every round,made him look rubbish,kotelnik disproved this by his performance vs Alexander,some question alexander given the win.

Alexanders-
kotelnik-barely "won",
Urango-washed up a bit,good win though,
witter-the quiter,already beat by bradley.

I think khan from his last 3,4 fights,his wins,his performances,and the last 3 opponents experience and styles rank him no 1 right now.

I have to say that Khan has alot of ability. With his height and style, he would give Bradley all kinds of problems.I just feel that Bradley is battle tested more so than Khan. He knows how to adjust in his fights. If Khan was to wear down like he did with Maidana, Tim would finish him because he is a more accurate puncher than Maidana. He also has much better defense and is a better boxer. Tim is a small version of Hagler with no punching power. Until someone beats Tim, he is in my opinion the best at 140.

Winner needs to fight Khan to see who is the best at 140. Honestly, both fighters losses to Maidana & Khan, by KO and wide points respectively.

By Jake Donovan - One sanctioning body decided the bout didn’t warrant their belt being at stake. Depending on the outcome of this particular fight, it’s very likely that another alphabet belt will be up for grabs soon thereafter.

Those who crown lineal champions are coming out of the woodwork, taking a “not yet” stance in filling the void left behind when Manny Pacquiao decided his fight with Ricky Hatton would be the only time he’d ever fight at junior welterweight.

According to ticket sales reports, it seems that the fight itself isn’t enough to revive the once rich boxing scene in Motown.

It looks like the winner of the January 29 showdown between unbeaten titlists Timothy Bradley and Devon Alexander will simply have to settle for being the best 140 lb fighter in the world.

If we can agree on that, then why can’t the rest follow suit?

Fortunately for Bradley and Alexander, it doesn’t require a lot of bells and whistles in order to get them in the ring for a grudge match that’s been more than a year in the making.

Bradley (26-0-0-1NC, 11KO) has proven that much ever since entering the title picture. He was prepared to face Jose Luis Castillo in Mexico in order to earn his first alphabet title shot. The fight never happened, as Castillo showed up a full division above their contracted 140 lb. weight limit, effectively killing the fight. [Click Here To Read More]

Funny article... didn't even mention Amir who has three impressive wins lately. hmmm... maybe he doesn't know Amir.

The winner of Bradley/Alexander fight can't be considered the best at 140. The winner fights Khan... the outcome will determine the best at 140.

[Rome-By-Ko]

I agree the winner of this fight is the best 140lb in the world..But no matter what Khan will still be num 2 so they have to fight him,I think everybody knows the winner of this fight is top dog at 140lb..

[Rome-By-Ko]

Winner needs to fight Khan to see who is the best at 140. Honestly, both fighters losses to Maidana & Khan, by KO and wide points respectively.

You sound crazy,Maidana pulled out of a Bradley fight with a fake back injury..Khan is a 50/50 fight with Bradley..Don't talk foolish and get so hype because Khan finally beat a puncher lol..Oh yea lay off the booze

[Khalid X]

Absolutely not and I hate when people say this.

Khan has just as much of a claim as the best in the division as either Bradley or Alexander.....resume and talent wise.

That's why I'm glad this isn't for the ring belt as this bout still doesn't determine who the best is at 140.
