    Man that fight would be super, two young warrior's, but Devon needs force GBP to fight Khan, and the only way i see that happening is him beating Bradley and then holding 3 titles at 140, Khan would have to fight him.

    He already beat two top ten ranked LWWs in his first three fights at the weight. One of whom is next up for the aforementioned Alexander...

    Alexander is getting more hype than his talent deserves imo, that said, he is a good fighter who would be capable of taking Khan out.


    Alexander reminds me of a better version of Lamont Peterson, good fighter but his style has its limitations.

    JMM is a bigger name than Bradley and Devon put together.

    Since moving to 140, please list how many light-weights Khan has faced.

    Khan is 23 and still a prospect IMO. He needs to be beating guys like Alexander and Bradley if he wants to be considered a P4P threat down the road.

    He is in no position to sit and cherry pick opponents and have the top two guys fight each other before fighting him. He is not Mayweather or Pacquiao but he is trying to pretend that he is.

    If "Con" is going to "clean out" the division, doesn't that mean he fights and beats them all? So what does Bradley and Alexander fighting each other have to do with that?

    I know all of that stuff. I also know that Bradley is about to go fight at 147 and is looking to fight Maidana, Cotto, Pacquiao, Mayweather, or Alexander next. Many of Khan's potential opponents are LWs. Khan can fight whoever he wants. Just don't expect people applaud him as much as you do if he continues to handpick guys. He also should stop talking about having tournaments in which he has no intention of participating in.

    Khan would fight anyone at 140 right now like he said after Paulie fight, but its GBP calling the shots, they make the fights, and right now they feel Alexander and Bradley are not worth the risk, its a shame i know because i want to see them fights also.

    Khan could beat Bradley, IMO. I'm not all that impressed with Timothy.

    So you're saying Khan should fight all the top 140lbers one by one and, in the meantime, no-one should fight anyone else? :?

    Please don't try to play these idiotic games of semantics with me. You know full well I'm refering to the numerous lightweights they are potentially trying to match Khan up with next. Furthermore, the guy I responded to said GBP has no intention putting Khan in there with top LWWs because they pose too much risk for too little reward. So who would that leave for Khan to fight? I would say LWs with a recognizable name and overmatched JWWs, preferably with little power.

    We take it you'll be back slagging Bradley off if his next fight isn't against 'Maidana, Cotto, Pacquiao, Mayweather or Alexander'?

    I probably sound like a hypocrite because Mayweather is my favorite boxer, but it's a shame how this coddling is happening these days in the sport. 23 year old fighters with the elite potential like Khan should be fighting 4 times per year minimum and fighting the best opposition possible. When he beats those guys, he will be in a position to dictate who he fights and when.

    Bull****. I guarantee you Holt would lay khan the **** out. And I also guarantee you that roach would want nothing to do with rated R. Kendell still can clean that division out, even if he had a bad night with bradley (who he knocked down twice lolz).
