Bradley has a chance to re-claim the #1 spot at 140. But, as of TODAY Khan deserves to be #1 at 140.
Bradley recent activity especially at 140 -1 fight in 19 months at 140- is what hurts him in the rankings.
Khan in that 19 months time frame has fought 5 times at 140. 1 of them against a bum, 1 against a top 15 fighter in the division, 1 against a top 10, and 2 against top 5.
Khan run at 140 in the last 24 months is more impressive than Bradley inactivity in the last 24 months.
So I really can't see how Bradley should be rank #1. However, at worse he's #2. And, has a hell of a chance/opportunity to re-claim his #1 spot if he wants it.
I personally think Bradley overall is the better fighter and I think Bradley beats Khan H2H. But, Khan has earned the right to the #1 ranking. You can't ignore Bradley recent inactivity at 140 whether it's his fault or not.
