    What do Berto and Bradley share in common? They are both African American boxers, Both are grossly overhyped and both are soon going to be former world champions, Just as Ortiz dismantled Andre Berto I fear that Bradley is going to suffer an even greater embarrasment at the hands of Khan.

    Alot of people have discredited Ortiz and Khan because both have had losses one was said to have no heart and proved everyone wrong against Berto, The other everyone said had no chin but took each and everyshot Maidana through at him. Instead the hype was always focused on Berto and Bradley, I guess alot of that has to do with them being African American, Lets be honest if Bradley or Berto were not African American but any other ethnic group in the US they would not have received the kind of media attention or hype surrounding them.

    Berto and Bradley soon to be to former world champions are having to make way for Khan and Ortiz. Im willing to bet all my points on Khan beating Bradley with anyone who is willing to take the bet.
    Bradley worked his ass off and came into his own the hard way. The only possible gripe I can imagine anyone having with Desert Storm is the # of headbutts that take place in his fights. Other than that they have zero in common. Very big fail for thread starter. To liken Bradley to Berto would be to lessen Berto's shortcomings.

      Bradleys closes fight was against Witter(how long ago was that??)that's very impressive being the fact Bradley has unified the belts twice and has fought more champions and diverse fighters..

          The scorecards would differ as far as domination is concerned,as for looking impressive I thought Bradley looked great..He landed the flush shots,was never buzzed and landed at a nice %rate..If you wanna say the fight in a whole was not impressive blame Devon,but make no mistake Bradley was dominate and more impressive. Then Khan when he fought Maidana..

                Khan was no where near impressive against Maidana, running around the ring is impressive? then you have low standards, dude was scared of Maidana and it showed.

                    You must've missed the combinations he was bouncing off Maidana's head whilst "running around the ring". I suppose your tactics would be to trade with Maidana?

                      Yeah Khan actually boxed. Bradley mauled and butted, landing the occasionally right hand.
