    Khan vs Bradley would be such an intriguing fight to watch that I'm really gutted it's not happening. Both men are just bubbling under that top 10 p4p area in my opinion and a genuine unification fight to see without doubt the number 1 at 140 would give the winner every justifiction to call out Mayweather/Pacquiao. Plus I think the fight is really a 50/50, a great clash of styles with whoever imposed theirs on the other being the big favourite.

    Very sad it's not happening...:sad2

    Guys, I just have higher standards than the rest of you, don't be so hurt.

    Most of the fighters I call 'great' you guys haven't even heard of. It's no biggie, you call Khan all you want, I'm keep calling it how I see it, conflicting opinions are what make this board what it is.

    Khan has alot of flaws at the moment for sure but can we all please remember he is 24. Every fight i watch i think more and more he has the potential to be great. Whether he gets there who knows. Also gotta like his ability to utilise the headbutt thatll be helpful against Bradley

    Khan doesn't deliberately headbutt but the head clashes are definitely more his fault IMO. It's because at times he just runs forward and most of his opponents are trying to duck out of the way and slip the shots, leading to head clashes. Khan normally comes off ok as well because he's the one with his head straight forward.

    Credit where credits due, carried out his game plan perfectly.

    Didnt give judah chance to settle to land a big shot, just jumped on him and kept pressurising him and peppering him with his jab.

    Honestly thought Judah would have had speed/reflexes to deal with khan but it is easy to underestimate just how fast khan is when he wants to be.

    Fair play...

    khan is number 1, bradley cannot be classed as number 1, especially after Khan's achievement last night.

    Khan vs Bradley is all if's and buts...loads of them.

    Gonna be a horrible fight to watch tbh.

    Khan was impressive last night. I think a very good plan and showed maturity although at times lunged in square and traded when hit with right hook in round 1 or 2. He still got them flaws there but that performance was a damn sight better then the McCloskey display.

    Bradley's good work has gone to pot with this inactivity.
