    Khan is a bigger name than Bradley or Alexander so the winner of Bradley vs Alexander against Khan is the biggest fight that can be built up in the division. By far.

    The best USA JrWW against the best UK JrWW.

    Right now we're not even sure who the best in the USA is. Khan could beat Bradley just for people to say "well Alexander is the best American anyways" and vice-versa. So I'd rather they settle that first to make a huge fight against khan.

    Con will never fight Maidana, Bradley or Alexander.

    He will never fight the elite in his own division. This guy is a total fraud and disgrace.

    And Kessler is a bigger name than Dirrell and Ward and has the tourney suffered because of it ?

    Let them fight in a tournament their popularity will be intact ..

    Do you get the irony of a Khan fan making that statement? Khan is looking for the "big fights" at 135 ffs!

    You still don't understand my point.

    They are using that excuse to not fight Alexander right now. Similiar to Khan but everyone is being built up and that's how it is atm. As Uncle Rico said above me, If shaw's fighter is allowed to build himself up then why can't Khan?

    Alexander and Bradley would take JMM in a heartbeat if they had the chance. He's the best lightweight out there.

    No, I said he has a good chance of beating Khan which he most certainly does, as does any lww with decent skills and power (Khan is also aware of this which is why he will not fight anyone fitting that description). You haven't addressed my point about your ridiculous statement.

    Lets go through the check list:

    Boxing Skills- A draw
    Power- Alexander
    Speed- A draw
    Chin- Khan's chin is like a wet paper bag.

    Now when you add all of that up, Khan doesn't last 12 rounds with Alexander.

    You do know I was talking about Bradley fighting Alexander?

    You said why would Bradley take the risk and end up fighting Alexander.

    Why should he (Bradley) not fight Alexander?
