    Who has the better resume out of the two? Taking into consideration that Timothy Bradley is 3 years older than Amir Khan.

    Depends on whether you count the Pacquiao "win" for Bradley - or the Peterson "loss" against Khan. If you answer yes to either count, Bradley by a wide margin, but if you disregard both then they are about even, imo (Khan maybe has a few more good names, but he's also got that ko loss on his record).

    Didn't Bradley lose against Holt?

    So you want us to take Tim's record from 3 years ago??

    Before Junior Witter I don't see many big name in Tims record, his big scalps in the last three years - Im discounting Pacquiao as I don't think he won that fight even though it was his best performance. I'd say they are on a par, as far as their record goes but knockout ratio and the fact that Bradley was ducking Amir shows which is the better boxer

    I'd go with Bradley, at 140 his wins over Peterson and Alexander outrank anything Khan has done so far

    Both fairly even, edging it to Bradley ... I would probably rate Witter, Holt, Alexander, Peterson & Casamayor over Kot, Malignaggi and a shot to **** Barrera and Judah. I personally though Khan won the Peterson bought despite the point deductions and PEDS but it was close enough that I can't count it as a win.

    Pacquiao beat Bradley, end of story for me so he doesn't get any credit for that win from me.

    Yeah probably Bradley by a slight margin.

    Fair or not, Bradley has a win over Pacquiao. That definitely bumps his resume up. So I pick Bradley. The Peterson and Alexander wins were good too.

    Is Witter that good a win? Casamayor certainly isn't. I'd say Khan's Judah win is about equal to Bradley's Witter win. Bradley did beat Peterson which Khan didn't, and Alexander was a good win. In hindsight though Kotelnik being jobbed against Alexander makes Khan's win look better and Bradley's win look somewhat diminished.

    I would say given the Witter that he fought and the fact he travelled to the UK to beat him so convincingly in the guys own backyard (as they say) to take his title, that it elevates it quite a bit.

    I thought it was a good win and certainly above the Judah that Khan fought.

    Casamayor wasn't great but no worse than Kotelnik who I seen as a very average fighter.

    Cooking to beat Witter in his home country is a positive mark for Bradley, but Casamayor was a forty-year-old former super featherweight/lightweight who was more shot than Bonnie & Clyde.
