True had Khan fought Lamont instead of McCloskey like it was Originally planned then Bradley would have no a case at all to be ahead of Khan inactivity or notComment

Dont forget Kellerman calling him future p4p#1 material too. I had a good laugh when he said that.Comment

This is a damn good post...And, I agree...No doubt Khan should be ranked #1 at 140 today.he earned the #1 spot AT THE TIME but that doesn't mean you can't lose it.
just because he hasn't lost doesn't mean he can't get bumped down.
khan's 140 resume is more impressive imo.
even if you think bradley's is better , the fact that it's comparable even though khan just jumped to 140 2 years ago says it all.
And, I think he will be by The Ring and by BoxingScene. They're the 2 most respectable rankings out there IMO.
I think the TS is impatient. It's Sunday the day after the fight. Usually rankings are not updated until Monday or Tuesday.Comment

So if Floyd were to fight Khan and Bradley next, and Manny were to fight some cab drivers, would that make Floyd p4p king? No. You have to beat the best to become the best. And how is Khan's resume more impressive?he earned the #1 spot AT THE TIME but that doesn't mean you can't lose it.

Alexander > Judah
Lamont Peterson > Andriy Kotelnik
Kendall Holt > Malignaggi
Miguel Vazquez = Maidana (and Vazquez could very well box his shoes off)
Junior Witter > Salita
Bradley's only good wins before Khan moved up were Vazquez and Witter, so that isn't a valid argument. There's also the inactivity, which isn't his fault. If Maidana hadn't pulled out last year, his resume would s**t on Khan's.
With that being said, I think Khan's better, but it wouldn't be right to put him at #1 just yet. At least give Timmy a chance to make his claim.Comment

LOL....dude he fought 6 months ago. He beat the guy that nearly everyone thought was the number 1 guy in the division.Comment

actually yeah. if pacquiao is fighting scrubs and mayweather is beating better competition , pacquiao would lose his spot to him.So if Floyd were to fight Khan and Bradley next, and Manny were to fight some cab drivers, would that make Floyd p4p king? No. You have to beat the best to become the best. And how is Khan's resume more impressive?

do you not know this?
dude , you <=> are all fucked up for those fighters tbh.
i mean just look at the 1st one.

Khan is the number one JWW now. Bradley hasn't been doing enough recently. His win over Alexander doesn't mean much now that Devon has arguably lost two other fights.
Khan is now the man to beat in the division. Not that Bradley wouldn't have smashed Judah either though...Comment
