    Khan v Bradley and Rios are two really good fights. I'd like to see the Bradley fight above all though.

      I don't know about Rios in this one, he's entertaining and fun to watch but if Maidana couldn't get the W on Khan, I just can't see Rios doing it, even if it's a close fight Khan would still get the nod, not a great fight for Rios right now.

          Rios has no defense but Khan´s punching lacks precision so they would be balanced lol, Khan would be dragged into Rios´s style and put to sleep with a jab.

          "Rios couldn't even drop Murray and he was at least 15 pounds heavier than him."

          That would be because the ref rescued Murray.

              Khan will only stay at 140 for Bradley. Top Rank won't make either fight.

                I would love too see Khan bust Rios up but if he's having difficulty making weight then he should move up. Rios brings nothing to the table.

                  Much like Margarito if you can't keep Rios back he'll keep trying to land power punches.

                  Khan still makes mistakes in there. Maidana's not the most talented guy in the world, and he had plenty of success.

                  I'd favor Khan, but Roach is too confident.

                    Depends on if Bam Bam can get to him. Khan will have to be outside and off the ropes the whole fight. Bam Bam will pressure him every second of every minute of every round. He has a decent chance of overwhelming Khan I think.

                    On the other hand Khan is far more skilled than Rios, is lankier (if I'm not mistaken), faster and has good power. I could see Khan administering a steady beating and then getting a stoppage late w/some big counters once Bam Bam gets desperate.

                    I think it's gonna' come down to stamina.
