    Khan has a better learning curve ahead of him. He will claim the throne believe me.

    Bradley is great, a true gladiator but he has been through a lot. I respect him and I fear him but something just doesn't cut the mustard for me. He is weathered and experienced but he doesn't have the speed of Khan.

    I think thats going to be the determining factor at 140.

    It always has been.

      Khan! He faced the better fighters and is the most dominate.

        People voting Tim Bradley I can't help but ask what you see when you watch him fight. Amir Khan outweighs Bradley in every aspect of what makes a great fighter... He outweighs him a lot...
        Bradley does everything well and his will to win is far superior to Khan.

          Nope,Bradley has shown more,when Amir got hurt against Maidana,he wasn't fighting to return the favor,he was fighting to survive.When Bradley gets hurt,he tries to return the favor.I like Khan he has talent,but he ain't getting higher than Bradley without beating him.

            Khan has outrageous talent and might take the top if those two meet, but for now it's Bradley, just impressive how he always gets it done.

              It's close.

              Khan is the better physical talent, but Bradley is more well rounded.

              The division as a whole is overrated. Even I was guilty of overrating it.

                Because Amir doesn't have the chin of Bradley. So he should have traded with Maidana?

                It's ok though. I can live with people calling Bradley more determined. Because he is one tough nut to crack. But his warrior-mentality is not FAR superior then Khan's.

                  I agree. It's all about Amir and Timmah.
                  • Alexander didn't meet my expectations
                  • Ortiz didn't meet my expectations.
                  • Maidana proved to be exactly what I thought he would be. A one-dimensional slugger.

                    I disagree. I think Khan has as much heart as anybody in the game. He reminds me of De La Hoya. Khan also takes on very tough fights. Bradley is just a protected fighter, and I was never sold on Devon being very good as he comes off as another American hypejob who really doesn't come to fight. Now that Bradley has beaten Alexander everybody is jumping on his **** when that win is only as good as his other mediocre wins. Devon Alexander was hyped and now exposed to be nothing more than a quitter who does not come to fight and only his future will hold whether or not he was ever the real deal or not. My guess is NOT.

                    Khan on the other hand has taken on Maidana which was a more impressive victory and showcase of skill than Bradley has ever shown.

                      One question.

                      Has anyone seen Bradley with a bad cut post fight?

                      I think he's never had a bad cut.
