Would Khan beat Bradley even easier than Pacquiao did?

[lefthook2daliva]

Troll poll.

How bout' this:

Bradley beats Khan easier than Peterson did.

[Isaac Hunt]

This is a very arrogant presumptive post in saying it is a given that Khan beats Bradley especially when you consider Bradley beat Peterson who beat Khan and made him look bad. Why is there not an option in the poll that says Bradley beats Khan?
If Bradley can take Manny's shots who hits WAY harder than Khan. I can see him keeping constant pressure on Khan and exposing his non existent inside fighting skills worse than Peterson did. Khan has range and speed but his skill level and ring IQ is no where near Bradley's level. Bradley would know that if the fight is kept on the outside he would lose if he allowed Khan to hit and run all night. His game plan would be to take Khan out of his groove and pressure him and counter and punch with Khan when he attacks. Khan is very open when throwing his punches in bunches but is very fast but Bradley is good enough to take advantage of the flaws.
My money would be on Bradley in this fight.

..If Bradley can take Manny's shots who hits WAY harder than Khan. I can see him keeping constant pressure on Khan and exposing his non existent inside fighting skills worse than Peterson did. ...

That's an interesting run down but the problem is that the Peterson fight can't be used an accurate benchmark because we know he was cheating in the fight (he admitted that he took the steroids months before the first fight so they were in his system during the fight).

But, I agree that Bradley's chance of making the fight somewhat competitive is his inside game. The only problem is that without Peterson's steroids he won't be able to get on the inside half as much and Khan will be able to box him from the outside with relative ease.

I can only see it as a virtual mismatch at this stage. Bradley really isn't cut out to be a 147 fighter, at 140 the fight would have been more competitive i think.

with Khan's reach and speed could he actually beat Bradley even easier than Pacquiao did?

I'm not saying Khan's a better fighter than Pacquiao. It's just a case of styles makes fights. Does Khan have the style to dominate Bradley for the full 12 rounds?

The one thing that's still uncertain is how Khan will perform at 147. We saw that Bradley proved to be a C or B- class fighter at the weight when he fought both Pac and Abregu.

There's a chance Khan looks bad too, but I think it's unlikely because of his size, he seems more naturally suited to the weight while Bradley looks like he's unnaturally pumped up. I know Bradley fought at even higher weights before but that was only possible due to putting on unproductive amounts of muscle.

So there's a good chance Khan will completely outclass Bradley for all 12 rounds in a 147 fight. His style could prevent Bradley from doing hardly anything in the fight. He might make Bradley look like McCloskey, Malignaggi or Judah. And Bradley's lack of punching power means he'll probably pose virtually no threat to Khan in terms of offense.

I think there's even a chance that the fight could turn out to be a mismatch at this stage. What do you think, is it even a competitive match up anymore?

Pac lost fair and square...

Commission found nothing illegal with the judging or the decision on the night.

No man in a hat or brown paper bags left under seats.

STOP saying Pacquiao won, you're deluding yourselves.

WAKE UP! It was a close fight which could've went either way. I gave the fight to Pac the first time, but upon review, without commentary Pac got school but had the clear advantage on power. And what would you expect a blown-up lightweight with a twisted ankle to do. Just walk through Manny's shots!?!

Make it make sense...

Khan wins the 1st 4 rounds, then loses the last 8.

How do you know Peterson was not on synthetic testosterone when he fought Bradley? Neither of us have any incling of how much the testosterone helped Peterson. You can use Peterson as a bench mark you choose not to.

Peterson didn't have to say he was on the PED before the first fight, he could have chosen any date. But the "doctor/drug supplier" confirmed the date that Peterson gave which was the training camp for the first Khan fight. Clearly he wasn't using it for the Bradley fight, not only by the doctor confirmation but you can tell from his performance he was a different fighter down the stretch and that was obviously because of the steroids in the Khan fight.

If Peterson hadn't been on steroids there's a very high probability Khan would have beaten him much easier than Bradley did because as it is, a steroid-fuelled Peterson was only able to get the decision over Khan when the ref unfairly deducted 2 points from Khan, and the scorecards were also being illegally tampered with.

Didn't realize Pac had officially won.

Fix, I watched the fight live and thought Khan got off light with the ref. Before the decision was made I thought Peterson just edged it but the judges would go with Khan as he was the meal ticket. That was before the man in the hat garbage started.
Peterson is not that good but nobody talks about why Khan put up such a poor showing. The real reason is not Peterson's PED but Khan's complete lack of infighting skills. That is why he had to resort to pushing and holding because he could not cut it on the inside. He got exposed in that fight. You can talk about Peterson and his PEDs all night and maybe Khan would have won but one thing is for certain his pathetic infighting abalities would have been shown up and that is what Bradley would take advantage of.
