Bradley vs. Khan H2H?

According to Fighthype, it seems like Khan and Bradley will be fighting on December 15th. TR and GBP are back on their bullshit.

Khan is rumored to be fighting Carlos Molina, a lightweight coming back from a two year lay-off. Bradley is rumored to be fighting Lamont Peterson. Khan will be on Showtime and Bradley will be on HBO.

If Molina had a better track record, I would watch that fight. But it's a 100% tune-up fight, while Peterson/Bradley will probably be more competitive at 147 than it was at 140.

I agree with you. Khan hand picked a small, soft punching guy he knows he can beat and hopes that will get him a big payday with Hatton. Molina is ranked #70 in the world by boxrec. Khan once made fun of Brooks for fighting a guy ranked # 30 by boxrec. Peterson looked good against Khan in my opinion. I think he will give Bradley a much harder fight this time.

Khan did the right thing in taking a tune up fight after a TKO loss like that, anyone who criticizes him for that doesn't know much about boxing. You should always take a tune up after being knockdown multiple times because you need to boost confidence and rebuild. Seems to be the first time in quite a while that his team have made the right move, but the mistakes Khan made against Garcia who knows, if he does that against anyone he could get knocked out again (any fighter could who makes the same sort of mistakes).

As far as Bradley goes, he picks a guy that he clearly beat the first time around (when Peterson wasn't on PEDs we should mention, while he was on PEDs when he fought Khan) so that fight is garbage in my opinion. I find Bradley a pretty boring fighter, he's just nowhere near as exciting as Khan but no doubt he's still highly skilled.
