    Well Beating Paulie would show me he's true world class. Paulie don't get beat by anything less. But Bradley beat Bradley and it shows you have all the makings of being this future p4p king you keep going on about Mr.Khan

    Bradley, he is the best 140 fighter right now bar Manny.

    Bradley, who has shown himself to be versatile and nearly iron-chinned. He has fantastic powers of recovery, is not the type to be overwhelmed, and has enough spite in his punches to make a Khan victory an almost unattaintable task.

    Won't happen yet I don't reckon. Bradley vs Alexander for his old WBC belt (which he should still have) and Khan Vs Maidana, who is beatable but extremely dangerous, sets up a massive fight next Summer and Khan has more time to prepare/learn.

    IMO :good

    In terms of who is currently 'the man', I'd say a Bradley fight and/or win would bring Khan the most praise. That said, stylistically I think Malignaggi would be a very difficult test for Khan as well.

    I've put two punchers in the poll to encourage alternative opinions:yep:good.

    This intended for me, Mandanda?:good I certainly don't rate Khan P4P and, even if he does clean out 140, I don't think he'd deserve to be in the list either. If he manages to clean up 140 and pick up a belt at 147, I think he'd then deserve such an accolade. That said, that is a hell of a way to go and a lot can still happen. We shall see what happens with Khan.

    Bradley is second to only Pac at 140.

    I honestly think that Pac needs to relinquish the 140 ring belt. He is clearly not campaining at 140 now, hes is effectivley putting the championship on ice.

    Any. Less for Malignaggi as he has no power.

    Bradley is the class act in that crop, but perversely I would give Khan more credit for facing a monster like Urango

    I hope Khan fights one of these guys next, its time for that step up in class.

    Well Bradley is by far the most complete fighter out of the group, didnt really rate him before Saturdays win but he looked really good...so it would be him, Khan would probably get similar credit though if he beat Maidana (easier IMO than Bradley) just because of the all round chin issue

    But if Khan beats ANY of them in an upcoming fight he would get massive credit from me.

    In a way Urango and Maidana would prove the most to people about Khan, even if Bradley is clearly and obviously the most valuable win.
