    No doubt. The winner of Bradley-Khan deserves a fight against Floyd or Manny.

    The 140 division has been overrated though. Mostly because Alexander and Ortiz were let downs and haven't been what people expected them to be.

    I personally like the winner to fight Berto first so we get rid of that joke.

      Thats not how boxing works. When you become a PPV exclusive fighter (Pacquiao,Mayweather etc) you have a certain guarantee how much you get paid. You can't match them up with someone who isn't gonna sell because its about who can you make the most money with. And remember that we're in a recession and fans can stream fights so you gotta prove your worth the money.

      Tim Bradley can't sell out a KFC and have sold ZERO PPV's in his career. His style is boring and people hate seeing a fight end on a headbutt. Khan is the far bigger draw than Bradley but still isnt a PPV fighter in America yet. 2-3 more exciting fights and he will be. Shane Mosley and Margarito have the styles people will pay to see them fight, not on the A side but B side. Mosley - Mora didn't sell for **** and Shane unfairly lost some credibility in that fight cuz of styles.

              I think Khan brings a lot to the table in terms of a fight with floyd mayweather. He will bring huge brtish ppv numbers, will bring big numbers to the gate, he just needs 1 or 2 more hbo fights and as long as he keeps winning and unifies then it will make sense. He brings enough to get the fight nothing more. He will get a 70/30 split but khan will take it, I think it is a natural fight and the older floyd gets and the better khan gets the more chance he has to winning. Khan is probably the one guy in boxing that can stand in the middle of the ring with floyd and not get murdered, because he is super fast, is taller, long, and has a great jab.

                I think Khan has a good chance, one of the best, to beat Mayweather. Pacquiao is just not that clever and he's gonna get taken to school. Bradley is good defensively, but he can't be as good as Floyd and so he can't beat him at his game. Khan, with his size and reach and speed, would surely give Floyd more than he can handle, on his best day. Berto, Ortiz or other welters are chanceless. Alvarez? Maybe one day, but not right now.

                  All I know is this,Floyd's last fight was against an old Mosley who was tired after round 2.That's not Floyd's fault by any means.Now while Pacman has been active,Margarito can't hit anything that moves & his power has all but disappeared after beating Cotto.Khan & Bradley are prime young fighters beating live opponents.They can move,they can hit,Bradley doesn't tire & Khan is huge.They bring something to the table that the last 2 maybe 3 opponents that both Floyd & Pacman have fought.Youth,prime,stamina,winning streak,these young guys show up to fight,to win,they don't know how to lose,(for Khan,lately)Floyd & Pacman can get caught slippin & get worked over.

                    If he holds the WBA, WBC and WBO titles he'd already be "undisputed". To be considered undisputed, you need to hold 3 of the 4 belts and the lineal title, all of which he would hold if he beats Bradley. Khan doesn't need to fight the IBF title holder (Judah or Mabuza) because they are both paper-champions anyway - Alexander was the true IBF Champion (purists might say Kotelnik should have been, I agree, but for the sake of arguement let's say Alexander was), and the IBF made him vacate under bull**** circumstances. So in effect, Bradley should currently hold the WBC, WBO and IBF titles.
