    Neither should be a problem........think that ALexander is a little bit easier for Khan

    What kind of threat though?...

    Bradley has 0-5% chance of stopping Khan
    Alexander has a minimum ~15% chance of stopping Khan
    Guerrero is up in the ~30% chance of stopping Khan (since he could turn to brawling which Alexander wouldn't) -

    Who has the best chance of outboxing Khan over 12 rounds?

    Bradley then Alexander then Guerrero

    Well would you look at that...

    The biggest overall threats to Khan at 147 right now are - Pacquiao, Thurman & Maidana...

    Brook & Floyd & Porter all have the ability to stop Khan...but we'd probably see it go over 12 rounds. These 3 men are the people Khan should be fighting if he beats Alexander...or Bradley but he is SADLY out of the equation due to Arum

    What it comes down to is 147 is very competative between fighters and smalls things make the difference to getting stopped or getting widely outboxed. Two men still are a class above the rest we know who they are.


    For me the Alexander fight will tell us more about Khan than the Guerrero fight. especially how Khan's 'new style' is progressing & how it translates into an outside boxing match.


    2015 is going to be a BIG year at 147

    and also at 140 depending on what D.Garcia decides to do with his life...Herrera and Matthysse should get it on in the meantime...
