    He'll never be the man to beat with Freddy "the Dope Coach" Roach handpicking his opponents.

    I think Alexander will end up the top dog, he has everything. Kahn is better than him slightly in a couple of areas but I can see Alexander knocking Kahn out late if they fight. Bradley for some reason I think would lose to Kahn and the most exciting thing for me is seeing Judah make a run for it; he's going to give everyone hell at 140 but still see Alexander beating him. Also wanna see how Guzman fits in if he finally makes weight. Him versus Judah would be a wicked fight.

    So Khan calling out Maidana and Bradley dont mean ****, yet Bradley calls out Alexander who he been ducking for some time now means he will now fight him?

    Man get that **** out of here, we all know Khan is an asset one which not be risked until the money/reward is right, fact of life is Khan has star power and is the money man at this weight, other fighters at this weight have to take risks to eat/make ok money.

    Ask your self this, ' Why did Khan leave Warren to join GBP and fight in the U.S?

    To fight light hitters and smaller guys(Khan's last 3 fights at 140 were vs natural 140 fighters) for years on end?


    JMM was O.K for P4P no.1 Floyds come back 145, but a smaller light hitter for a young 140 fighter like Khan.

    When Khan beats these top guys at 140, cant wait to come here to see what people like you say, cuz all you guys got on Khan is his chin nothing else. Damm boxing skills and natural gifts these guys will be lucky to win 2 or 3 rounds off Khan.

    yeah his loss vs prescott makes him look VERY bad. prescott is B level at best. alexander and bradley dont have those amatuer mistakes on their resume.

    Khan is tall for the division, he's got enough power but since Freddie trained him not to depend on it he's just using it as cover, he's as fast or faster than the other fighters in the division, he's got good movement, and as to what Paulie already said about Khan, you can't possibly infight against Khan just because he pushes you down when you get past his jab.


    Hate him or love him, the man has got some good advantages going for him against any opponent he'll face.

    Apart from his china chin.

    But the thing is, like with Wlad Klitschko, CAN you get to that chin now?

    He's far removed from the Breidis fight and doesn't expose himself as needlessly as he did before.

    He's had several fights already under his new trainer. That's already far removed. You can see he doesn't fight the same way anymore. That's far removed. This Khan is different from the one who got caught by Prescott 4 fights ago.

    You may say he ain't tested yet, but that's not the point. He's different.

    He's not the man until he's undisputed.

    Why because Roach is his Trainer?
    Max even stated hes very well protected :p

    or is this based of him beating Malinaggi? That certainly is no monenumental power move. I probally can beat Paulie.

    Bradley's promoter is negotiating with HBO to get the Alexander fight done. All of Khan's people say he's fighting Marquez next.

    You're right, Khan is an overhyped, protected fighter. He should just continue fighting handpicked opposition.

    Because Warren wanted him to fight real fighters.

    Yep.

    Mayweather was widely criticised for fighting Marquez, and that was tuneup for Mayweather.

    He's so great yet his handler's deem it neccesary to protect him? We'll see.
