    Was very impressed with Khans win last night. I personally think wins over Malignaggi and Kotelnik are more impressive than Alexanders wins over Witter and Urango.

    What do you guys think??? What order should the top 3 be??

    World Rankings before last night.

    I wasn't that impressed with Khan last night. He done a good job, but nothing more than expected TBH.

    I reckon we leave Bradley and Alexander as the top two.

    Well Ortiz should at least be one spot higher than Campbell.

    At lest from what I saw.

    Does no one think that Alexander would hit too hard for khan? He did make the quitter whitter retire in his corner. I kind of like the way khan said a semi final between him bs maidana and Bradley vs Alexander... Tho I think it should be khan vs Bradley and Alexander vs maidana as the top two lw deserve to face off in a final not a semi final.. Sounds sad this final shot don't it?

    Based on rankings...

    1. Timothy Bradley
    2. Devon Alexander
    3. Amir Khan

    Although it wouldn't surprise me if over the next year both Alexander and Khan proved themselves to be better fighters than Bradley. We just have to see them get it on to be sure who the best really is. :bbb

    first off you need to show a bit more respect to Witter. He won a world title the hard way.

    Don't think Alexander is a HUGE puncher but you dont need to be one to hurt Khan

    I think the top 3 rankings are fine in terms of resume but I think Alexander is the best fighter out of the lot.
