    You could be right. I just think you guys are seeing Khan's awesome physical ability and missing the gaping holes in his actual boxing game. I dont think Tim will make the same mistake.

      no, i see Khans problems, poor footwork, static defence, lack of inside game.

      i just think the positives outweigh the negatives in this style matchup

        I really just don't see the great fighter others do in Khan. Khan's defence is running. And it's not because he doesn't have heart, he's got plenty of heart with the way he tried to hold on vs Maidana and he even tried to get back up and fight vs Prescott. He just doesn't have good defense because Roach can't teach it. He tries to use ring movement and activity like Pacquiao, but his footwork isn't close too Pac's, and his stamina isn't as good either.

        I just don't think he's good enough to beat Bradley going foward. He has a better chance if he lets Bradley come foward, but as the bigger man, he's may to feel obligated to come foward, and if he does, he's going to be scored on and turned all night. Khan can win, but I certainly don't favor him.

          As much as it pains me to say it, I think Khan is the "class of the class". Id be rooting for Timmy, but I think he would be eating jabs all night.

            I think if Khan doesn't put some hurt on Timmy early.... it's Bradleys fight. If he can make it a scrap(which he pretty much always does), he'll win. If he doesn't finish Khan off he'll outpoint him. I don't see Khan having the luxury of running away and protecting a lead in the later rounds.

              Khan stops him. He's quicker, bigger, stronger, and has a great jab and combos. Khan's body punching is good too.

              Khan beats him and becomes no.7 or 8 P4P.
