I don't think Amir can make the weight at LWW for much longer. He needs to clean up the division ASAP because he won't be able to make the weight soon.
Khan should fight Judah, not Bradley

This.
Judah has equal handspeed, veteran experience, and KO power. We saw Amir beat Paulie and Maidana. Bradley is just a mix of two traits from them - power of Malignaggi and the will of Maidana. Throw in some speed, but not enough speed, and it's like he's also got some McCloskey thrown in. All Bradley can do is throw a lot of punches at Amir with no proof he can hurt him while Amir beats him to the punch the whole way through. Bradley just takes a beating and Khan becomes a megastar for being so dominant over the best guy at 140.Comment

i'd like to see the judah fight too at some point but most likely khan fights bradley and then moves up to 147. whatever the outcome of the fight, bradley then fights judah for the IBF belt
bradley should already own the IBF belt because alexander shouldn't have been stripped by the jokers at IBF specifically when he agreed to fight bradley!
IBF is a complete farce.Comment

IMO Khan should have fought Judah and not McCloskey but the clock is ticking and Amir won't be able to make the weight soon so it needs to be Bradley.Comment

Business-wise, it’s makes sense.
Judah is well known to the US audience, and is a popular fighter. He’s also the IBF belt holder, but crucially, he’s also way past his best. Logically you would expect Amir to beat him.
And there you go...
Amir is now MUCH better known in the states after fighting Judah, and also has a 50% share of available belts opposed to 25% which makes fighting Bradley a true unification fight.
Financially it would also make far more sense, earn a wedge against Judah then earn even more fighting Bradley then he would were he to fight Bradley in July as has been muted.
I’m surprised this hasn’t been suggested more. I appreciate Amir wants Bradley next, but I’m sure GBP are having a word in his ear...
Bradley is a tougher fight and has a 50% chance to beat khan. Judah has a bigger punch, but has only a puncher's chance to beat khan.Comment
