    because he is light punching weak boxer and wouldnt bring half the action a fight with lopez or brook would bring.

    Tell me about it. I think the greatest sight in boxing right now would be Bradley cringing on the canvas after a Khan body shot.

    I may not be a big fan of Mayweather, but he's at least a real boxer who tries to punch with authority and win his fights legitimately with his skills. Bradley is a flicker jab/slap hook machine who tried to survive and spoil against Pacquiao and somehow got credited with a win for that.

    I'd even be pleased to see Floyd KTFO Bradley, though my preferences to KTFO Bradley would be Khan, Pacquiao in a rematch, and Anybody Else in that order.

    The desire to see him fight Alexander... I don't know what drives that. I wouldn't want to see that.

    As for Bradley, while that wouldn't be as exciting a fight as some of the other guys on that list, the fact Bradley has evolved into such an annoying ***** recently and ducked Khan in the past both make other people (and me) want to see the fight come off so Bradley would lose and get shut the **** up.

    look. if he should face bradley, than way should he leave light welterweight? than he can stay at that weight and fight small boxers. he already fight most of the best light welterweight boxers in maidana, peterson and judah. at 147 there are boxers his size and more quality. I mean brook, lopez, even ortiz or berto sound like great exciting fights in the making, why bother with the small dude, who just doesnt has power :huh

    when there are so many more exciting choices than bradley, why than pick bradley? he had his chance in the big league, he failed, over. dude was at his physical absolut best and couldnt do **** with pacquiao. amir at welterweight will be so much taller and bigger than pacquiao with arguably same speed and power, bradley no chance.

    Well, I think there's a difference in what we want to see from Khan's fights. You want to see the most exciting stylistic matches, which is perfectly understandable, and I'd like to see him get a welterweight belt and some revenge.

    I do think he should stay away from The Tree though. Ortiz is all wrong for him, even if Ortiz is a glass jawed glass hearted mess with the mind of a child. He's just too big and too powerful for Khan and his unproven at 147 chin. I think he'd take Berto and Lopez. I haven't seen enough of Brook to make a call on that though.

    if he can handle maidanas power he will handle ortiz power. remember ortiz was a light welterweight with less power than maidana not so long ago. also with extra weight khan gonne have stronger back and neck muscles and handle power better. but one thing is true ortiz can hurt him, but thats the fights I wanna see or do you wanna see fights where the opponent throw balloons at each other?

    just the most athletic boxer in that division, future p4p star. alexander, who is just a average fighter at best does not deserve more a shot than brook.
