    Bradley's power is a notch below the other guys on that list, to be fair. He's no puncher and really has to sit down on his punches to crack. Against Khan, I'm not sure he'd have the opportunities to do that since he'd be facing a bigger fighter who he doesn't have the speed advantage over and Khan's too cautious to leave him those big countering opportunities.

    But bradley doesn't chase guys around the ring, he cuts it off. Maidana
    comes after you with a 2 fisted attack with bricks, and devon is a skilled
    counter puncher w/ speed and power. Khan won't be unifying anything at
    140.

    That chin will be shattered again one day, not a question of if but WHEN.

    It's going to be very hard for Bradley to win that kind of fight against Khan if Khan fights conservatively because of Amir's size and handspeed.

    The Khan of a few fights ago, Bradley would've toyed with. As he continues to develop and tighten his game up, though, I think the physical advantages Amir has will become too much for Tim's toughness and heart to overcome.

    If I'm in Tim's camp, the first thing to figure out is how he's going to get past that jab.

    khan looks good against a guy that pose no threat to him at all. I mean for crying out loud Hatton beat the crap out of him !!! Paulie was always a B- fighter and cant never beat A class fighter. Paulie should be thankful he was given the opportunity to face some high class opponents. I hate to say it but Paulie most likely will be the gate keeper to 140 division !!!!

    Some of you people are talking nonsense Paulie was a moving target and Khan still got to him, a more static target will take far more punishment. Say what you want about Paulie, but Khan had to work and box smart to take Paulie apart. If Khan is cute enough, and uses that quick jab, looks to have decent pop as well, he could trouble anyone in the division and guys who don't have good footwork will take punishment. Maidana I think will get outboxed, and Khan will look good doing it. Maidana will sit in punching range, Khan won't have to go looking for him like he did Paulie.

    Khan would get destroyed by Alexander. He is physically gifted but with suspect chin and swiss cheese defense I doubt he can compete with A level competition. I don't think Maidana is awesome but he would put Khan to sleep.
