    If stories like this are coming from Arum, then Khan may not even get a crack at unifying.

    I have a feel that Arum will get Pacquiao Vs Bradley on..

    Yeah i do to. Re-Watched the fight tonight and it looked fair bit better performance wise then i first felt. Even though it wasn't his top level display..shows that he can beat a fellow champion and not fight to his top level.

    He's also right about the location of the fight last night and the general lack of buzz. I think sometimes fighters fight to the crowd just like players do in football...maybe that's a minor reason why they failed to spark. I felt underwhelmed even when they briefly engaged it wasn't a good crowd at all.

    Realistically that fight was an undercard fight to a big event, like a Pacquiao fight for instance.

    Having it the best part of a thousand miles from either fighters hometown is shocking, and made even worse by choosing a declining city like Detroit.

    Would be akin to sticking Ricky Burns in a title defence in Plymouth or something.

    Disagree mate. That was a top fight on paper, hindsight is 20/20. The Yanks always make for an iffy crowd.

    i think bradley would beat khan, khan has everything going for him except for chin but bradley always finds a way to win, he will maul, outmuscle, headbut khan into submission.

    I bet Gary Shaw loves this bit.
    "Bradley's the kid of fighter we'd love to have."

    I can see him fighting Pac straight away if he signs with Top Rank and I doubt he'll fight Khan unless he leaves Golden Boy.

    Tonight in round 2 while re-watching the fight two times Alexander launches in and hits Bradley with head. Bradley looks to ref and he doesn't say anything. Just feel he gets all the blame for it last night. It was clash of styles....**** happens.

    Just a coincidence that there has been headbutts in Bradleys last 7 fights?

    Khan figures to be the betting favorite, and with good reason
