    Number of lightweights fought by Amir Khan since moving to LWW = zero?

    I think Berto and Margarito are overrated. Cotto on the other hand might be able to beat Bradley due to size and strength as Cotto is a boxer puncher.
    But Cotto is a cutter, and Bradley uses the head, so I can see Bradley stopping Cotto in a bloody mess of a fight.

    Number of lightweights fought by Tim Bradley in the same time: one.

    Bradley isnt a puncher though. I'd make Khan a slight favorite against Bradley. He's so fast and has an excellent jab - this will cause problems for anyone. Even though i think Bradley is a better fighter than Devon Aleander, i reckon Alexander would have much better chance of beating Khan, just because he has bigger power.

    Yeah like how DLH TKO against Mayweather? Same type of fight, same result with Bradley winning. DLH won the jab contest and not much else.

    Now I give you credit, Kahn might be able to win because Bradley makes technical mistakes, but if Bradley fixes those mistakes between now and fight night, Kahn wont have a chance.

    Bradleys flaws are difficult to capitalize on. He ducks his head down at the wrong angle and is open to uppercuts. He ocassionally leaves himself open to counter punches, but thats about it. I couldn't find many flaws in his game but with Kahn I saw many flaws in his game, his lack of balance and poor footwork being a main flaw. He has speed but he has no power. He has good technique but he has no chin. He has height and he uses it, but he can't do infighting and can't win a brawl.

    Bradley has more weapons, including his use of the head, his in fighting, his counter punching, and his chin if there is a brawl. This means Bradley has more ways he can beat Kahn than Kahn has to beat Bradley, as in Kahn can only beat Bradley from the outside with his jab. If Bradley gets inside and works the body, Kahn won't win because of Bradleys aggression and superior technique.

    Where's your criticism of Maidana fighting a shot to **** bum in his next fight?
    Where's your criticism of Alexander fighting Kotelnik? (Khan's scraps)
    Where's your criticism of Bradley fighting a nobody at 147?

    You exposed yourself in the post before and probably just want to see him get knocked out.

    Lets hope GBP make this happen because Bradley wont get Floyd or Manny right now, next best thing is to fight Khan.

    This would be a good good boxing match.
