    morales wont happen, i think khans got a lot of options after the salita fight, he could fight in america the likes of bradley, malignagi, diaz, maidana, campbell or hecould look for a summer showdown with ricky obviously and who knows, if prescott kos mitchell the talk will be there for the prescott rematch. I feel the rematch is inevitable, i just think theyre waiting a little cause they know they could make the rematch hyped up so big in a few fights time, obv making big money in the process. Why fight prescott now when it could be bigger in a years time?

    Fighting Presscott later isn't going to generate more money as Presscott is not going to be able to beat the World Class boxers needed to help big up the fight.

    Do you think Khan is ready for the likes of Bradley???

    I really dont.

    i personally think the next fight hould be maidana, but i think hes got a voluntary defence if he beats salita, so the winner of diaz/malignagi is prob the option hell take. once hes fought either of those (assuming he wins) i think hed have to fight maidana, and then bradley would be my option.

    Whether or not hes ready now, probably not, in 2/3 fights certainly yes.

    He has to get past Salita first remember, and then an inevitable Prescott rematch

    I don't see the Prescott rematch happening. I think he will beat Mitchell though. I would put money on the winner of Diaz/Malignaggi fighting Khan.

    The key with khan if he faced malignaggi....is his defense, and movement....I have no doubt khan would be chasing paulie much of the fight, paulie gets into trouble when he stops or is on the ropes....no way would paulie become the aggressor....I see malignaggi winning early rounds....the malignaggi jab is much more cripser then anything khan will throw...and juan diaz who throws punches in bunches, paulie dramatically lowered the out put of juan diaz....paulie fought in a small ring and had to smother diaz at times, diaz did his best work on the inside....khan hates to fight on the inside....

    I agree paulie's defense is average, for a slick boxer.....so I expect him to get hit by khan....but I have questions whether khan will score enough while chasing malignaggi around most of the fight....he will be eating jabs, while chasing paulie....this is where khan's defense could determine the fight, if he keeps his hands up he will probably win....malignaggi's right hand is the healthiest it's been in years, he will use it more in the diaz re-match

    If Diaz faces Khan, I really see 120-108 for Khan.....if diaz couldnt get through malignaggi's speed I dont see how he gets through of khan's speed....

    Khan should be the favorite against paulie...but I think its a very competitive fight...with Khan or Paulie winning a close decision...Malignaggi is a tough out for anybody when he is on top of his game...
