    According to the Scene anyway. Huge repercussions for Khan and, more importantly, the 140lb division as a whole.

    Thoughts?:think:good

    Good move to stay away from 147.

    Yeah, I personally don't think 147 is a good move for him either; be that a temporary move or permanent one. He's a pretty small LWW as it is.

    June 19 apparently, mate:good. If Khan beats Malignaggi I will be very disappointed if he doesn't fight he winner of this fight or Alexander. No reason not to, IMO.

    Fair play to Bradley and Maidana for taking this fight. No messing about. I wonder where it leaves Alexander though?
    I would suspect, either way, Khan gets the winner at the end of the year if he beats Malignaggi.
    A terrific war though in prospect or Bradley schools him. Will be interesting to see what happens if Maidana gets to him.
    The big fights keep getting rolled out though eh?

    He seems to have a good chin, I guess he should be able to box to a gameplan...??

    He got decked twice (I think, definitely once) against Holt but got up and didn't let it faze him.

    Yeah I'd go with that. Worth sacrificing a couple of quid for interest's sake.

    This is great. People have been saying 140 would be great for a Super 6 type tournament, but I don't think we need it, all the top guys in 140 are fighting each other anyway.

    Apart from Khan ;)


    :stir

    IMO, Bradley seems to be getting better with each fight at world level. He looked good against Witter in a close(ish) fight. Then he looked better against Holt, battered Campbell and then absolutely outclassed Peterson. I think Maidana is just a bit too wild for Bradley who can box to a gameplan and win handily on points.
