Amir Khan vs. Timothy Bradley: who will win?

[The Surgeon]

I rate both guys but i like Khan big if they fight, probably on points

[-Lowkey-]

Khan takes this via U.D or late stoppage Khan is to tall to fast and has a great jab Bradley will get caught coming in he also lacks the power to hurt Khan, Khans weakness his chin will be irrelevant in this match up as Bradley lacks any real K.O power.

Kahn by late stoppage.

It seems a lot of people expect Khan to defeat Bradley, easily. Which, I find hilarious considering the fact that styles make fights. Timothy never looks good against southpaws, every orthodox boxer doesn't, in fact tell me when you've seen Khan fight a southpaw? Other than in sparring. Bradley thrives against orthodox opponents, that in which Khan is.

I think Bradley will defeat Khan and it is all based on the intangibles.

Khan's strongsuit over his last five fights, have been to throw punches in bunches, to overwhelm the opponent, and effectively make them quit or lead to an eventual knockout. At 140, he doesn't have that one punch knock out power, but he throws hurtful punches.

Bradley is one of the most elusive targets at 140. His head and foot movement is on par with some of the best, which will discourage Khan, and lead to a fall in his punch output. Bradley, is also a master at taking away his opponent's jab, something which we saw last night - Alexander's jab was no way near apparent as it was when he fought Kotelnik.

Khan is a come forward fighter. He struggles to fight on the backfoot and against the ropes. Bradley proved last night, and in his last 5 fights, that he can box yet also play the part of an aggressive fighter. He will be placing Khan on the back foot all night, making it difficult for Amir to get his punches off ...

Khan's defence at times can be abysmal. If Maidana was having some relative success with his slow-ass punchers, then Bradley's right, hooks and body punches will be landing, at will and all night. The overhand right will also be making a solid appearance.

Khan's chin is still suspect; even though he was able to make it past Maidana. Bradley is an underrated puncher. Last night, he made Alexander QUIT due to his hurtful punches, hooks and rights. There were times when Alexander was wincing in pain from the body punches, and those rights were tilting his head back. This is something we never saw Kotelnik do, which could mean in a way that Bradley punches harder. Didn't Kotelnik have Khan on the backfoot? Maybe that's something to think about.

Last night, Alexander spoilt the fight by holding. But be honest this took away one of Bradley's best attributes - inside fighting. Khan does not do well on the inside, nor is he a hugger or holder. Bradley will dismantle Khan from the inside.

Bradley's pull counter is one of the best in the game. Khan has yet to see one of these, and when it lands you'll be awfully surprised.

Ariza got Khan through his fight with Maidana; Ariza should be credited for that win, and helping him get through the 10th round on his feet. Now without one of the best strength and conditioning coachs' in the picture, how will this effect his performance in the upcoming fight?

Joel Diaz is also an underated trainer, his game plans have been on point ever since he started working with Bradley, and his corner advice is brilliant (something that Freddie Roach lacks in).

Lastly, a lot of people liken Bradley to Holyfield. Whereas, I see him as more towards Hopkins. Look at his last fights, he consistently takes away his opponent best weapon(s) plus he's a very smart fighter, and we all know about smart fighters don't we.

Bradley wins this, and I'll be surprised if it even comes close.

--------------------------------------

The opening round of Malinaggi vs Khan pretty much sums up how this fight will go.

The only difference is, Bradley will be landing hurtful punches and be aggressive consistently for 12 rounds.

Can Amir handle the heat?

[The Hammer]

Incorrect.

HBO has the option to have the rematch.

HBO has stated they do not.

Good news.

I don't want to see Bradley-Alexander II, but I'd love to see Bradley-Khan.

Bradley by ud. As long as he is active(periods of inactivity last night) he will look better against khan than alexander. Tough fight khan comes out fast but tim can defend against that. A few misses and a few counters later and the fight turns into a battle of wills..............I'll bet on the fight in bradley's dog over khan's.

Khan tends to waste his height at times and lacks head movement. If he were to tighten up the defense and fight tall and long all night he would win. Just don't see that happening

[Bastian Loc]

Khan will knock him out. Bradley isn't very good at all.

[The Hammer]

I hope Bradley doesn't duck Khan.

The overrated Mayweather ducked Mosley, Tszyu and Casamayor when they were in their primes and ducked Cotto and Margarito later and is ducking Pacquiao now.

[The_Demon]

I cant see Bradley ducking khan,he is old school and will take on all comers,i cant wait til they fight!

[Salardo]

I dont think bradley is a fair fighter. he is gonna headbutt khan and win by stoppage
