    Khan is the cashcow in the division, therefor if bradley and alexander fight they don't just fight for who is top dog at 140 but also fight for the biggest payday of their careers with Amir Khan. MONEY TALKS PEOPLE, LIKE IT OR NOT KHAN DICTATES THE TERMS, UNLESS HE LOSES. People still don't undersatnd boxing politics.

    Urango is mother ****in garbage.

    Stop tryin to pump this mother ****er up.

    And Witter, who the **** has Witter beat? Zab Judah...oh wait...

    For real, Witter was protected. And Bradley put his ass down when mother ****ers were actually considerin him to be the best at 140.

    So stop with this bulslhit.

    If you dick ridin Alexander just say that ****, but don't try to build up some bull****.

    He didn't deserve the IBF strap at all. His tough fight against Berto, wasn't that tough. Yeah, he gave Hatton a tougher fight but that was down to styles. Malignaggi schools Urango.

    Malignaggi has only lost to the best and beat some good fighters. Juan Diaz is a league ahead of Urango, yet Malignaggi deserved the victory in the loss, and beat him too.

    Malignaggi is a good fighter. Urango got lucky and was exposed against the best.

    HENDO, Witter actually wasn't protected. He chased big fights but none of the other elite fighters would fight him because he sells no tickets and brings nothing to the table, plus is high risk - low reward. Hatton shamelessly ducked him for about 5 years.

    I think you're being harsh on Witter. He wanted the big fights but nobody was interested because he made no money. I also think he was a good fighter when Bradley beat him, yet he had clearly lost a step or two, by the time he fought Akexander.

    I agree with the first part, but Hatton didn't duck Witter. It was Frank Warren who stopped the fight from happening - Firstly, because he wouldn't put his two fighters against each other and then because he wouldn't work with Hatton, post-split.

    I understand, but at the same time bringing up Witter is irrelevent considering that both men beat him.

    Pac beat Hatton and De La Hoya more dominantly than Mayweather beat them, but I think the majority of people still considering Mayweather to be the superior fighter.

    He said the like more eloquently post fight, can't see what the big deal is, he faces Maidana, Alexander faces Bradley, winners meet.

    Im not spouting BS, you are, Alexander has a few decent wins and is now trying to take the next step and Unify at 140, Bradley also has a few decent wins but for what ever reason doesn't want to fight Alexander, which is BS, if he wants a mega fight he needs to establish himself as the undisputed man at 140, a win against Alexander would take care of that and force Kahn to fight him.

    Bradley beats Holt, Petterson, and Witter, so in your mind that gives him justification not to fight Alexander..............:rofl:rofl:rofl

    Man, I'm a Paulie fan but he did not win that first fight. He looked very limited. He also got a dodgy decision against N'dou in the fight before Hatton.

    You dismiss Urango by staying it was down to styles, but Alexander did better against that style than anybody. Who had Urango lost to who wasn't the best?

    Speaking of styles, Paulie was zero risk to Khan in that fight. Yet it's a better win than Witter or Urango?

    Khan's people wouldn't put him in the same room as a fighter like Urango let alone share a ring.

    I thought Malignaggi won but it was close, yeah. I thought Malignaggi won by a couple of rounds against N'Dou.

    Who had Urango lost to? Well, obviously he got beat by a couple of top fighters but the Rabah 'win' was a true robbery. Even his adopted hometown booed the decision. Did Alexander really do better? I don't know. I thought he lost a couple of rounds but the knockout was sensational. Without that punch, I think an Alexander win would have been less impressive that Hatton's. That's obviously not the point though, I know.

    I think so. Khan wasn't a good boxer at all a year or two ago so to beat a boxer, shows plenty of improvement. Obviously Malignaggi can't hit but it's still a good win because he's a good opponent.

    I don't know...I think Khan batters Urango. There's little risk there, in my opinion.

    Fair enough. If he's fighting Maidana then what's the issue for demanding this?
