    A lot of people had Alexander as The best fighter in the division, and it was basically a fight to see who could claim the number one spot.
    Just because Bradley hasn't fought doesn't mean a Judah win will make Khan leapfrog him.

    No. He agreed to consider an extension

    A 50/50 split on £250K UK revenue is hardly enough to warrant committing to a further relationship with someone you do not want promoting you.

    Oh you saw the contract did you? :patsch

    "Snipped" because you can't answer that notion.

    Not everyone is deep in the industry like you, Adam. I assume you've seen the contract then. Instead of smileys, why don't you fill us in?

    It's a tough one, but he'll be Britain's no.1 p4p no doubt.

    Yes if Khan beats Zab looking good than yes Khan will become No.1 at 140 IMO and I also think he would in most of the rankings also.

    Bradley last fight was in Jan, and right now has no fight date, they should strip him if is not willing to defend his titles, no good just sitting there with them.

    I can't see it Darni.

    Look at the Ring rankings for example. IMHO the number 2 ranked fighter (Khan) is not going to get moved up to number 1 on the back of beating the number 6 ranked guy (Judah) 6 months after Bradley won a fight that at the time involved 2 out of the top 3 fighters in the division.

    Yes, because Khan would beat the #1 P4P fighter in the world!

    Judah: "I am still the pound for pound the best fighter in the world"

    Yeah let's see, everyone knows Khan really wanted to fight Bradley but he did not want to know, plus Bradley is becoming inactive let's what's happens.

    Bradleys situation is complicated and has been done to death on here but I don't think its as straightforward as him "not wanting to know" about Khan or being excessively inactive for no reason.

    Like you say, I guess we'll see. Maybe after the fight we'll see Zab at #1.....;O)
