    Let us all understand who is "Pulling-the-Strings" behind Khan...Arum and Roach. I highly doubt he gets put into the ring with a fighter that has REAL SKILL AND ATHLETICISM. Think about it, why do you think he's fighting Paulie Malignaggi when the "TOP DAWG" at 140lbs (Bradley) had an open date.

    So IMO, there is NO way in Hell Bradley, Alexander or even the Peterson brothers get a shot at Khan. I am thinking maybe the Ortiz/Campbell winner, maybe that kid that just lost to Maidana (Cayo), JMM (great fight), maybe they'll ask Humberto Soto or Katsidtis to move up to 140lbs..And then there is "Mr. Weight-Issues" Joan Guzman.

    For the Record...I just had to say this: No-one finds in kinda' odd and somewhat peculiar the it's DEVON ALEXANDER being labeled as "overrated" in threads in ESB...When Both are 23yrs old, but Alexander within 20 fights just fought and STOPPED two ranked FORMER BELT-HOLDERS and Khan in 23 fights beat a WAY WAY WAY past his prime MAB for got KTFO by an UNRANKED opponent....Yet it's Alexander being labeled as OVERRATED!:-(

    Food for thought:huh

    Khan is a Golden Boy fighter.

    I really believe he will fight Maidana if he beats Bradley, possibly Guzman when he next fights in 2012. Alexander is another option.

    I really think he's going to get in the ring with one of the smaller old guys. Morales and JMM seem like ideal opponents. Both are older, smaller, and bring in big money. If Khan is looking to make a name for himself here in America than those are logical choices. I don't think we'll see him in with Bradley, Alexander, Madaina, or some of the other young, prime, top 140 guys, atleast not quite yet. He could face the winner of Campbell-Ortiz(which I think will be Campbell), thats a possible fight that makes sense.

    Katsidis, if he wins his next fight is a very realistic choice. He'll be moving up in weight and has a style that Khan can handle well. It seems like Khans' people are going to try to get him a winnable fight or two, in the States against guys with big names, before they risk him against one of the top guys.
