    I see Timothy Bradey is rated above Amir Khan in The Rings P4P list at #6 whether you agree or not thats where hes placed, but for some reason in the JWW division ratings Amir Khan is placed at #1!? I dont know if this is a mistake but would appreciate someone clearing this up...

    Thanking You!

    To be correct here, Bradley would have to be moved out of the P4P top 10 or below Khan. As both are at 140lbs it doesn't make sense. If Bradley was a multiweight champion it would be ok.

    you'd have to ask them but my guess is that khan has done more at 140 and looked impressive last time out to pass bradley. overall, khan still has a first rd ko loss at 135, where bradley is undefeated and has some decent wins to put him above khan in the lb for lb list.

    personally, i'd put khan above bradley right now in a lb for lb list but hopefully this fight will happen sometime next year once bradley realizes he's not going to get a pacquiao payday.

    yup Khan did a little better at 140lbs but got KTFO by Prescott at 135 and Bradley beat a solid welter in Abregu

    Blew it on Burns Vs Cook to go over 9.5 Rounds, seemed a good idea at the time :-(

    You know Arum has Bradley now. If you are a Top Rank fighter you get things handed to you like that.

    So since Bradley is with Top Rank (which he isn't), Ring Magazine (which is owned by Golden Boy) rates him higher than he deserves? :huh

    Seriously Bradley has beaten an undefeated welterweight and a few undefeated junior welterweights. The win over Judah for Khan somehow placed him above Bradley as far as the division, but not as an over-all P4P fighter.

    Division rankings are based on what you have achieved at the weight. P4P rankings are based on how good they think a fighter is.

    regardless, Bradley is ranked to high in the p4p rankings imo, he should be at number 10 or 9.
