Bradley vs. Amir Khan

did last night's fight change anybody's mind?

bradley keeps improving.

I haven't seen last nights fight and until i see that, i won't make any comment. But what i will say is that i wasn't that impressed, with Timothy Bradley at the start.

But since he's won the title he just keeps on improving, and he's got some good wins over some solid opposition. And if he beat Lamont Peterson as one sidely as the scorecard suggests, then Timothy Bradley beats Amir Khan at this point.

But i think Amir Khan should beat a puncher first, before we make any comments. I still think Amir Khan's so called improvements are too early to tell yet.

bradley's becoming a really good fighter. you can tell he's a hard worker.

i would say bradley at this point in time. he has faced the better competition. khan could win tho. its a tough one. would love too see this fight

Bradley.He showed a new level of versatility and ability to make mid fight adjustments last night.In with a very capable counter puncher/boxer in Peterson he started pressure early & brought some solid pop in rights and leveled off with fast combinations, great footwork down the stretch.Think hes far to well rounded and battle tested for Khan.

Meh, I'm done underestimating Bradley, he's borderline P4P.

I have to pick Bradley after seeing each fighters last performances...

I was very inpressed with Bradley last night...Like Ouma said he is boardinging on P4P...If he performs like his last outings in his next 2 fights against worthy opp IMO he would have to replace someone like Pavlik or Williams on the list for sure

Timothy Bradley next in line for Amir Khan | news.boxrec.com

I would love to see this match up. I do think it's too soon for Amir though and he wouldnt be ready for this. It would still be a great fight though. Ever since Bradley beat Witter he has carried on impressing, I always knew he would become a great champion. It takes a lot of character to beat a champion on foreign soil and take their title away from them. Ever since that day Bradley has had my full respect.

Had not thought about that really...p4p.Can see it.Level of comp is really impressive and really making strides.Not sure if there is still talk of a Devon alexander show down...but off a big name and show like last night,can see it.Slight blemish,if that,off the Campbell fight but no ones fault.Think he would take him in rematch big time....he finished the better boxing lastnight he had shown in the early rounds in that one.Will say,I'd have to put him head and shoulders above Pavlik now.

Juan Diaz is a great matchup, other choices are Katsidis and Malignaggi.

My guess is they will give him a marquee opponent who is a bit on the slide or not a big puncher then get him a dream fight with Juan Manuel Marquez.

I made a thread months ago saying that by the end of 2010 that Amir and Marquez would fight and Khan would go in the favourite and not a single person agreed with me, everyone told me I was delusional.

But I will say it again, Khan will fight Marquez late in 2010 and will have a real 50/50 chance of winning. Too much speed. If his chin holds he can win.

you delusional khantard (joke) ;D

after what i saw last night, Bradley horribly outboxes and crushes Khan inside 8, too good at everything and his stamina is crazy

bradley for me just slightly.

Bradley dominates Khan at this point time. Khan isn't ready for this type of challenge and may not be for another few years, if ever.

Bradley is the real deal. He might have a stone hard head and thank god too much for my liking, but he can box. Stick Khan in with him and see what happens. Bradley has far too much and is far too clever for Khan. Bradley can also pop a fair bit too, despite his low knockout ratio.

Bradley looked very impressive this weekend. Certainly at this present time I think he's one to avoid for Amir, he's pretty much in his fighting prime and is looking very very good indeed.

As Ouma said he's not that far from p4p, certainly he rivals Cabbalero and already has a better resume than Nonito fucking Donaire who has done nothing for over two years yet continues to rise in the eyes of Ring magazine.

Bradley is definitely number 1 at light welter. I think Alexander could be a real threat, maybe Marquez will fancy a go at fighting him.

The division is looking very exciting now and it may be enough to tempt Hatton back. I don't think Hatton will get another mega fight that he craves (not sure Marquez is a mega fight in terms of money generated) but he would be coming back to a real challenge to show him the best in his weight class once more.

I'd love to see Khan fight Paulie next and I'd like to see Bradley rematch Nate Campbell. I think he should have won first time around anyway, but it should be concluded, a NC is not the end or shouldn't be.
