Khan more Durable & Maidana a bit savvier than expected; these 2 are the best at 140

    Khan is going to be better now than before. Maidana was put down with a body punch. A lot of other fighters are going to be very interested in seeing how well Maidana takes a left hook to the body from now on. Khan on the other hand took Maidana's best punches. I was impressed with Khan, and before this fight I was not. But he proved he has heart.

    bradley should beat alexander
    khan should beat bradley - as bradley has been down a few time and lacks pop...bradley chance against khan is if it becomes an inside fight
    maidana stops bradley
    alexander and maidana is 50/50... alexander stopped another tough south american urango who has never before looked like being stopped although maidana has much better punching power than urango
    alexander and khan is also a good fight which could go either way

    add marquez and maybe ortiz and you have a loaded division

    where any of the 4 could beat the other on any day...although right now.... i rate them as follows:

    1. bradley - has defended against all and won championship abroad
    2. khan - moved up in my rankings due to spirit and heart showed. and ability to take a punch and survive. will need work on boxing skills especially jab and defence to succeed
    3. maidana - was 4th but after tonights showing moves up
    4. alexander - need to prove himself against any one the other three

    Whoa what!?!

    Bradley, undoubted #1 in the division.
    Alexander, prior to tonight to me was the unquestioned #2.
    Khan, easily and understandably COULD be put ahead of Alexander. Sorry, Brit, no way he is the kind of the division.

    I think Khan has big chance to beat Bradley or Alexander, he's tall and fast + power

    AK & Maidana are definitly better than those 2 featherfisted midget musclemen who can't draw flies to ****.

    Alexander is the most overrated. He has one good win on his resume (not the Koltenik!). If he wasn't American, nobody would be talking about him.

    My ranking would be

    Khan
    Bradey
    Maidana
    Koltenik
    Alexander

    Bradley would put a dramatic KTFO on Khan, he would just easily outbox and outpoint Maidana.

    i think every one needs to remember that khan isnt at his peak yet, maidana is. when pacquiao was at 24 he was no where near the level he is at now. khan will get better and more experienced and i really thought he fought well. he showed he has a chin and im excited for future fights for amir khan

    Out of the big four Bradley has the least power, he aint KO'ing Khan or Maidana.

    i dont think bradley has the punching power to stop most fighters he is a 12 round boxer
