this is a worthy fight for khan, not at all easy but he should be able to win. interesting test to see where he is at in comparison to bradley whom battered peterson imo.

I agree. Now if we could get Bradley vs Maidana in May or so, then we could really rate the two in comparision to each other.

Who was Khan's last opponent? Maidana? You're right, he hits like a b*itch....

khan has to actually fight bradley in order to rate him over bradley....regardless. but if u are to take anything from these fights in comparison.....

khan vs peterson? bradley vs maidana?

no. try maidana vs bradley & khan vs alexander...

Good. I hope this fight happens. I don't want a Witter or Murray fight.

khan has to actually fight bradley in order to rate him over bradley....regardless. you wouldn't be able to rate them in that way anyway.

peterson?

try maidana vs bradley & khan vs alexander (not peterson)

I don't rate him over Bradley. And I don't believe in triangle theories either, but it's impossible not to compair their performances against the same fighters. Even if you don't do it in a triangle theory kind of way, you can still examine the skills they use. And Lamont may be more versatile than Alexander.

imo the only reason lamont is ranked worse than alexander and viewed as a fringe contender in comparison is because he lost to bradley first.
