    I'm going with Khan by decision.

    Bradleys big advantage is that he's a far superior inside fighter - I'm betting on Khan using his jab and speed to avoid that kind of fight for the most part though. Bradley should give him some rough moments but I don't think he'll be able to turn those moments into extended periods of domination.

    Khan, close but clear.

    how will khan keep this fight on the outside though? bradley is smarter and has better boxing skills, amir will need to get on his bike and hope he can stop bradley from getting inside, I think he lacks the ring generalship to do this.

    I think Bradley stops Khan. Hope Khan is ready for multiple headbutts also his face is going to be a mess.

    this fight should also be for the lineal championship since the consensus top 2 fighters @140 are involved here. the winner will be the undisputed champ as well as being "the man" at light welter.

    he neglects the jab I think, he should set the pace with it but he often rushes in with wild punches.

    Timbo will punish him on the inside and win a close ud. Khan will take an early lead but I think Bradley will take his heart with his constant pressure and infighting. Should be a great fight. Respect to both

    Cant see past Bradley at this point, he will make it a slugfest and Khan will only be too happy to oblige.

    The ugliest part of this fight to me is how Khan throws his punches and Bradley wanting to get in. Khan sort of punches too far and bounces inside when he throws his shots, making me think a Bradley/Khan headclash is on the cards.

    I can't hold out hope for an actual match between these two. Their craniums have too much history. Bradley's too slick for Khan anyway.

    I had Bradley/Alexander pegged as a stinker. It lived up to my expectations. I think Kahn has enough pop to keep Bradley at a distance and churns out the win. I don't think Bradley can pressure as well as Maidana did.

    Avatar swap? :think

    Bradly doesn't have Maidana's pop so I don't see him being the right style to beat Kahn.

    I think Bradley is WAY more skilled than people seem to notice. It also appears to me folks underestimate the **** out of his power.

    Will think of some good wager, and I'll get back to ya'.:p:yep
