    Spot on, Bradley is a well rounded fighter, and a smart fighter, no point rushing into this fight they can make this for late 2010 if Khan keeps improving and winning. Khan has so many other good options next, Nate Campbell would be a decent test.

    Ideally Khan would fight a few different types of fighter to prepare for this. He's fought Kotelnik who is technically quite good and a good counterpuncher but he's very very static. He's fought Salita, I'm not sure what he was but clearly he didn't test Khan.

    1) A pressure fighter, or at least somebody that will put him under some type of pressure. Maidana would be great. That kid knows how to fire bombs and is very offensive minded.

    2) A speedster. I don't think Khan has fought an athlete even close to himself. Zab Judah or Kendall Holt would be ideal.

    Then if he passes those tests he could be ready for everything Bradley brings.

    Never thought of Campbell actually. Good shout.

    The last thing he needs is another guy that will just fall over..... because it won't allow him to put into action the work that he has done to improve.

    You could swap Nate Campbell for Maidana in my suggestions. Perfect example of a pressure fighter, and he has a bit of old school defence about him too that would be new for Khan.

    I would fancy Khan to outbox Maidana ... but the guy sure does punch and was unlucky not to decision Kotelnik .

    I think Khan has a good chance to do more than outbox Maidana. Obviously he doesn't want to get into a firefight and play Russian roulette but if he puts some meat on his counter right that we saw against Salita he would have a good chance to KO Maidana. Maidana punches hard for 12 rounds so the less time you are in there with him the better really.

    Nate Campbell would be very difficult because he's there for 12 no matter what, that would be a great learning fight.

    Yeah you know Maidana or Nate or really any real top 10 140 fighters will be nice, we want Khan to be in a testing and learning fight.

    Ortiz had Maidana down twice i think in the early rounds so there is a potential stoppage there .... and agree Maidana is a pressure fighter he wont be gassing after 6 thats for sure .... the little argentinians very good and would be a good CV entry for Khan...

    Khan would be best asserting himself on Maidana I think.

    Sitting back, popping off the jab won't do anything..... other than Maidana to throw more leather. If Khan does get caught, enough times, he will probably go over - though the same could be said of Maidana, who was all but beaten by Ortiz.

    Either way, it would most likely end up a war, I'd back Khan to win by stoppage - he is a better fighter than Ortiz, and in a different league when it comes to balls.

    Bredis Prescott???????
    although I think Khan is on another level now, this fight would be one to erase the only defeat on his record. Mitchell showed how prescott can be beaten,

    World class promoting?? A washed up MAB, and Salita, aye very good:lol::lol: Its a case of who is shite and how much can we get away with, without taking the ****. Warren is a fudd i.m.o. although Khan deserves some credit for wanting to take on good guys, lets see if Frank has the bottle to let him
