    Fact is Khan isn't going to fight the winner or loser of Bradley - Alexander. He will try to fight Ortiz or JMM or Juan Diaz, but he isn't fighting a legit 140 fighter. You can see that much in his trying to fight every name 135 fighter that is active.

    All Bradley and Alexander have to do is win their next fights and they'll be getting it on for big money in January on HBO. Look good fellas and everything is set.

    Khan has alot of haters who discredit him based on some press releases but when you look at what has happened in the ring, in 3 fights at 140 he has fought two Ring Magazine top 10 guys in Kotelnik and Malignaggi and one undefeated mandatory challenger in Salita. Not one of those guys is a 135lb fighter and he fought them all back to back after moving up from 135.

    But you know some fighters will be hated on for certain reasons no matter what they do.

    Even if Khan beats Marquez, Maidana, and then the winner of Bradley/Alexander, he will still have haters its the nature of the sport.

    people give khan a hard time but that is because a lot is expected of him. also anytime a fighter looks like they are going for a bigger name with less risk they catch some heat. furthermore, although he has fought OK opposition at 140 so far, he has been the heavy favorite going into all those fights, particularly the PM an salita fights. i don't think he should fight the winner of marquez diaz and won't give him much credit for a win over either one.

    Manny is scared of black fighters so he will never come down to fight Bradley or Alexander and he is ducking Mayweather @147!!!! That's why the names you here from team Pac are Margarito and Cotto 2 guys they know for a fact he can beat.

    are you serious? I like bradley and alexander a lot, but neither have a prayer against pac. alexander is way to green for pac and bradley was dropped by kendal holt. bradley is a really solid fighter but is no atg, pac is, big differance.

    What does that have to do with anything? Pacquiao was dropped by torrecampo and singurat!!


    My point is Manny will never fight these guys thats why they bring up Margo or Cotto!!!!

    Nice! I just hope this qoute is credible and wasn't pulled out of Gary Shaw's fat ass like the lies they put into Abregu's mouth. Hopefully Tim will keep his word and fight either Devon or Chino - Maidana is particularly motivated to give Mr. Shaw a big surprise!

    King Khan wont take to these words kindly, when little 5'6 Bradley gets in the ring with Khan 5'10, Khan will beat Bradley like he is his father.

    Maidana probably already lost out on a fight with either Alexander or Bradley for the time being. He'll have to wait for 2011 at the earliest to get a crack at either one. Hopefully he'll have all his issues settled by then.

    LOL, Khan hasn't done **** at 140. Salita was a ****ing joke who nobody respected as real comp. Kotelnik beat Maidana but some say it was because of terrible judging I say it shows me that he is on the same low level as Maidana but I'll give you that as a good win at 140. Malinaggi wasn't a good win, I don't care where Ring ranked him, he is a 140 fighter who split a fight series with a lightweight, that isn't impressive at all.

    So Khan fights 1 good 140 fighter in Kotelnik and beats a joke of a fighter in Malinaggi and now wants to challenge lightweights like Marquez or Diaz winner or Katsidis? LOL. He is a pathetic joke and only Brits respect him as a fighter, no American looks at him other than as a over hyped glassed chin joke who brings big money with him because he has all those Brits on his back.

    If Khan beats Marquez it doesn't mean **** Marquez isn't a 140 fighter. If Khan beats Maidana I'll give him props, that is a tough fight for him. If he beats Alexander or Bradley I'll give him major props and call him an elite fighter.

    Maidana only had "shark issues" for a couple of weeks and it's already been sorted out. He's scheduled for a summer home fight and will be ready for any 140lbs showdown later this year. But if it's Bradley vs. Alexander for 2010, I'll be just as happy, just make these Goddamn fights (including Maidana-Khan)! :thumbsup
