    What?!? If anything I think I like Khan's chances even MORE!

    Bradley was unable to cut off the ring. He fell in and was EASILY smothered. He also cocked his punches. By the middle rounds he was actually being easily contained by Alexander. If Alexander was a bit better mentally? The momentum of that fight may have changed.

    Khan has the boxing skill, the power, and the mental will to be MUCH more of a problem to Bradley than Alexander was. Bradley needs to seriously not underestimate Khan.

    bradley will beat khan, he is precise, fast and works the body really well, plus his defense is very very good.

    Don't see it happening. Khan will box circles around him like he was doing Maidana, only he won't have to worry about Bradley's power.

    Hmmmm, but not if your name's Khan. He wasn't anticipating them well in the Maidana fight, and I have serious doubts about him doing any better against Bradley. I didn't see nothing in Bradley tonight which I didn't already know, so I'm sticking with a Bradley win.

    As a Khan fan, I'm disappointed.

    I expected this fight to be the birth of a new monster that Khan would need to train really hard to beat, but atm, all this fight did was make Khan look REALLY good.

    Also, I wrote a couple of days ago that Bradley has half the power of Maidana's punches. I was wrong. He doesn't even have a third fo the power of Maidana's punches :patsch

    Khan has too much speed and too much power for Bradley.

    This is the next obvious bout at 140.

    And I think Khan has an easier time against Bradley than he did with Maidana.

    No, but he'll have to worry about a more elusive target, and an unforgiving shiny head! Ever seen a bowling ball thrown at a window?

    yup bradley handles him easy. Bradley's like Hopkins of the lower weight. His fights sometimes looks ugly. Does not have the power to knock you out but punches hard enough to throw you off his fight. Hard to hit him clean. But he always makes opponents fight his fight.

    Anyone saying Khan would be in trouble is a little... crazy.

    If Devon had any type of straight? I think Bradley would have been HURTING. Especially considering the way he lunged in. Khan does. Khan also has the speed, power, and will to make it a rough night for Bradley.

    Sadly, I seriously see Khan with the possibility of decisively beating Bradley.

    Power is overrated. He will hurt khan more then maidana by landing clean. Khan is faster but with Bradley throwing and puching forward non stop. I invision Khan fighting in a shell ala Clotty

    It's a toss up, Bradley is not going to manhandle Khan and any topguns from 140 and up, he will be manhandled by Pacquiao that's for sure
