    It seems like many people are starting to see through Khan and realize he isn't that great but it's more. Well before this fight, a Bradley fight was still a nightmare style for Khan. People are quick to look at Khans weaknesses and look just at his chin but he has so many more problems and that's why Bradley is a much more difficult matchup than Maidana would be.

    TBH, I think a guy like Judah or Alexander is a tougher matchup for Khan, I would expect him to lose both of those but Bradley is tough in his own right. Khan can actually beat Bradley, unlike the two guys I named(Judah he possibly could beat if Judah goes back to his ways), but from what we have seen of Khan he just hasn't improved his skills much if any. He still is wild and not very precise, he still has terrible footwork for being a top 3 fighter in his division, and he still, despite having a size advantage has yet to learn ring generalship. All these things and the obvious chin problems add up to a very tough night for Khan, since he can't fight inside at all(which Bradley excels at). Unless Khan learns something new he will be battered and lose a wide UD to Tim.

        I'll take Bradley by decision. amir really isnt all that. He has some speed but his footwork is not that good, he lunges with his shots (which leaves him off balance), he kinda pushes his punches, and he is mentally not strong enough. If you look at him he fights too up tight, he always has the look of a guy would who is really, really worried about gettin koed. Bradley is gonna come forward all fight and i think he is the better pro boxer at this point. Let me clear that statement up. Amir khan can physically/technically do more than Bradley but he doesnt get the most out of his skill while bradley is a little less talented on a technical level but he knows what he has and he gets the best out of it.

          it's not just bradley with the headbutts and maidana with the dirty tactics... first it was barrera and now mccloskey. check the maidana fight also, amir snuck in multiple headbutts right before JC broke a clinch and, let's not forget the elbows he digs down people's necks. this con is just as bad as either of those guys.

            Things khan needs to work on:
            1)footwork....he still lunges in like crazy and b countered and b seriously hurt

            2)CALM THE F***DOWWWNNNNN!!!.. khan is way too hyper in that ring no patience at all

            3)control the fight with your JAB!!!..Khan has a great Jab but all of this goes out of the window when he starts flurrying again!!

            4)NO MORE FLURRY'S!!! ..khan seriously has to sit down on hes shots he does cant generate no power if he is in a hurry to finish he god damn combo!!!

              he's a programmed fighter like someone mentioned. all he does is overwhelm opponents with speed and flashy combinations then gallops around the ring when things don't compute, rinse and repeat. i don't see any defense at all or the ability to adjust to take advantage of a situation in a fight. someone is bound to really expose this con sooner or later... and by that i mean a real schooling, a clinic, not just a one punch KO in the first round. he's as one dimensional as maidana is compared to an actual talent like donaire or something, imo.

                Nonito Donaire is one talented Muthaf@#ka but Amir Kahn is not. Don't see what's so special about him other than his speed and that is not enough to win fights against other guys who have speed and more than Kahn.

                  khan's fight with mccloskey is nothing to brag about. he suddenly became average. he better train well for the bradley fight.

                    I actually agree with this. i didnt think many other people noticed. Thats why him bringing up floyd is hilarious to me. But he'll end up getting koed again before a schooling happens.

                      Ask Peterson, Abregu, Holt, and Alexander if they were laughing at Bradley's power.

                      War Bradley!!
