    You know what I'm starting to like Khan, but that's because there is many boxers I dislike in the JWW division, mainly Bradley and Alexander. I just hope Khan leanrs how to be tough and his chin improves. Khan is a nice dude, easy to root for, I hope he becomes the #1 JWW one day. But right now Pacquiao is the #1 guy and I now Khan doesn't stand a chance against the Pac-Man, but how would he fare against Bradely?

    I think Bradley walks right threw him.

    Too big, strong and tough for Khan.

    If the fight happened Bradley in 7

    This is probably gonna turn into another thread trashing Amir's chin.
    Amir Khan vs. Paulie Malignaggi = Paulie brutal KO inside 1 in this forum.

    I don't think Bradley really hits hard so I don't see him knocking Amir out, but can Khan keep up with Bradley for 12 rounds? If Khan can keep on his feet, jab, pop and keep it fluid he might have a chance, but Bradley has foot speed of his own and will be after Khan all night going to the body and not giving him a chance to breath.

    Bradley UD or late ref stoppage.

    Not commenting on Amir's chin but I didn't really like his power in his last fight. I think his lack of pop is a real problem.

    I haven't seen Bradley all that much to be honest. I dunno his style. I know Holt dropped him twice etc..Right now bring on Salita for Amir Khan this is the one that's possible sometime this year.

    Bradley by KO. He might not hit the hardest, but he has enough pop to put some tough guys down with a single shot. He has enough power to trouble or hurt Khan and the speed to catch him.

    I think Bradley would stop Khan early IMO Bradley is on another level.

    im beginning to like both bradley and khan. the way they have improved in a year is pretty astonishing. i very much like the idea of a bradley khan fight. i think it would be interesting and it would also see ppv. if i had to choose i would probably say bradley by a late stoppage.

    He did yeah, but if anything Bradley proved his chins strength with those KD's.

    The first one was a picture perfect thunderous left hook, Bradley went crashing down but got back up fine, no problems. Not many would get up from that shot at all, IMO.

    The second one he kinda walked onto a right hand when he was unloading on Holt, bit of a balance issue really, glove touched the canvas but he wasn't hurt or layed out.

    I would pick Bradley by stoppage btw.
