    Bradley ducked him ... and i'm sure its going to be tough for him to get a unification bout with the other champions, maybe Juan Urango but thats about it. Urango seems to have some damn guts unlike those other champions.

    Khan won't be him ... and he won't come to the US ... i'm not sure if Khan is legit and if he would make it past both Salita and Maidana.

    Thoughts ... ???

    No.. pacquiao is the best JWW in the world by beating hatton. Anyways i still rank bradley over alexander at the moment due to the fact that bradley has defeated 2 title holders in witter and holt and just defeated campbell.

    Bradley wanted to fight a proven "warrior" and wanted a bigger payday. Understandable. Now that Alex has the strap bradley vacated, I still don't see Bradley fighting him anytime soon. Alex is in a tight spot because he is a champion at a very young age. No one wants to fight him b/c he hasn't proven himself so to speak, and if he gets beat up on its because "he's a kid"

    Very similar to Berto... But Berto is a better fighter.

    Pacquiao isn't campaigning and will probably never campaign again at 140 ... of course he's the lineal champion but thats as far as it goes ... he won't fight at 140 anymore.

    Be that as it may, he's still not the best junior welterweight. :deal

    Holt is shitty ... he has no guts and he won his title off of a damn headbutt just like Bradley did last night ... I have no respect for that especially when these chumps are looking to go in different directions immediately after. Holt was not a true champion ... neiter was Witter ... who proved last night he doesn't have a lick of ****ing ability and is as awkward as Carlos Maussa.

    I think Hatton can make a "comeback" fight against alexander or Bradley and get a belt while doing so. I really don't see too much KO power from either... But then again, everyone says that Hatton could be KO'd in a pillowfight these days.

    Alexander was going to stop Witter ... he had him hurt several times during the fight and was on his way to a stoppage.

    It was a reason why Bradley didn't fight him ... he was talking about he wanted all the belts yet he vacates one as soon as he can because stylistically he's at a disadvantage agaisnt Alexander.

    I was very unimpressed by Witter last night. I see why he can't fill a minivan with his fans...

    Still not very impressed with Alexander though... Great win for him though.. you can tell he really wanted the WBC strap.

    Spinks seemed like he was more excited about the win than Alex was.

    My unofficial super lightweight rankings:

    C. Pacquiao

    1. Ricky Hatton (former undisputed champion)
    2. Juan Urango (2x IBF champion and only 140 loss came to Hatton)
    3. Marcos Rene Maidana
    4. Tim Bradley
    5. Amir Khan
    6. Devon Alexander
    7. Andreas Kotelnik
    8. Paul Malignaggi
    9. Lamont Peterson
    10. Randall Bailey

    Kendall Holt ***** ass is not in my top 10 ... he talks too much and never once proved himself ... he got knocked out by a journeymen Davis ... was on the verge of getting knocked out against Monchuelo but again the headbutt plays an important factor.

    Spinks was cryin ... I think it was a relief because I'm sure spinks helped him ... and he seems to have the skills of Spinks with a bit more punching power and he's going to be pretty good throughout his career.

    I thought Spinks was the guy from Soul Plane for a while... Alexander needs to sharpen his skills if he wants to make it up the 140 ladder. I think that Holt would be a great fight for him b/c holt is a former champ. Holt would want the fight b/c he can pick up a belt easily.

    Dont worry Khan is coming to the USA to clean up the 140 divison, bar Pacman Khan is coming to kick ass. :yep

    Khan for now will fight Salita on the Cotto-Pacman card, they are working on it.

    Khan huh? You think he can beat Bradley? I think he could make a splash, but clean it up... Not really.
