    You can have Gavin, JMM would eat that boy alive. BJS is untouchable.

I've seen Froch and Khan struggle at their natural weights, haven't seen Haye do that.
      Haye outgrew Cruiserweight and couldn't make the weight any more. He's a natural Heavyweight now. And lots of Heavyweights have beaten far heavier opponents than themselves. The problem with Wlad for Haye was his speed, timing, jab, footwork and overall much better boxing skills, allied to his size - not his size alone.

          Khan is still green and unproven in my eyes. Haye fought his biggest and best threat.
          after ducking him for 2-3 years , trying to get as big a payday for a sure loss.

          khan tried to get a fight with the other top guy in the division. that guy didn't want to fight.

              How so? Judah these days is nowhere near Ward's class and is only ranked #6 in his division, whereas Ward is ranked #1. Khan should easily beat Judah, but Froch has no more than a slim outside chance of beating Ward. But that doesn't mean that Khan is better than Froch. It just means he's fighting a lower class fighter than Froch is fighting. Froch has a far better resume so far than Khan has.

              If Khan fought and beat Bradley that would catapult him above Froch in terms of resume, but beating Judah is just doing what he is expected to do and means nothing. It's a good stay busy fight while he's waiting for Bradley, and it gives him an extra belt, but it won't improve his resume much.
              Good points.

              Ward is in his prime, while Judah (even though he has a title) is faded, so the results Froch and Khan's respective upcoming fights will not be a fair comparison.

                So how come you got so many people saying Judah is gonna spark out Khan?

                Looking at Judah's resume and his comeback its far superior to Bradley's. Baldey on the other hand is not in contract right now and is doing NOTHING to try and book a fight. Its almost 6 months now and he's gonna get stripped of his belt for just hanging around too long.

                Bradley has to realise he doesn't have the same name as Mayweather and can't go on vacation. The man has to fix the fight because right now it looks like he has just RUN from a fight and, even if you give him the benefit of the doubt, it looks like he is AVOIDING competition.

                He can't be that well off, right?

                  Best british fighter to me is Khan, but best wins probably goes to Froch. Haye had some good wins but mostly at cruiserweight.
