    Khan, think Ortiz has a decent shout though.

    Khan's success will depend on how his defence and inside game improves. If it gets to a world class level, then I'll pick him.

    But as it stands right now, Alexander The Great will be the guy snatching that crown off Bradley's shiney head.

    It doesn't seem to be now but I think Khan will take the division and prove it in the coming years.

    For me its a toss up between alexander and khan.
    Yes bradley has the heart and resume but you do not see that talent like amir and devon.
    i love bradley man but i know khan and devon will *** him.

    So actually going out and proving yourself against the best is less impressive than showing potential? Yeah, ok.

    Look at Bradley's resume. He has by far the best resume.

    True, the Witter win was especially good away from home but, I don't think it's that good a resume for me to think he'd beat Khan or Alexander possibly even Ortiz.

    I guess selective reasoning is convenient. Him beating the big puncher Holt was impressive. He dominated the undefeated Peterson. Was on his way to completely beating up Campbell. And you mentioned going to the UK and beating Witter.

    I'll go with Bradley thank you.

    It's Devon Alexander. Of the junior welterweights, Alexander is the most fundamentally sound. His skills are the closest thing to a complete package, and does not have a glaring weakness.

    Not saying they aren't impressive wins, but Campbell has since been dominated by Ortiz. IMO Peterson and Holt are wins on a similar level to Khan shutting out Kotelnik and Malignaggi.
    You take Bradley I'll take Khan just hope some of these fights get made soon.

    It's tough to say. Amir Khan has been dominant, but he's done it against handpicked opposition. It's hard to tell how good he really is. Bradley looked sensational against Peterson and has been fighting good comp., but didn't look all that good against Abregu. Maidana hits like a mule, but has shown that he can be outboxed. Ortiz seems to be pretty skilled but also seems to lack heart. Alexander has really shown no real flaws and has been fighting relatively good opposition. However, he's beating and fighting guys that the top guys have already beat.

    It's a pretty good division. Hopefully these guys take after the SMWs and get in the ring with eachother. Ortiz and Maidana have already fought. It looks like Bradley and Alexander will get it on in January. Hopefully we can see Khan in there with one of these guys. If I had to pick one guy right now it would be Bradley. He seems to have it all except power. Hopefully, the Abregu fight was an abberration.
