Neither Bradley or Algieri have that Ko power, difference is Algieri is a more cooperative target and wont really outwork you. In the choice between sitting duck and angry goose, Khan chose the one that stylistically made him look better and has been knocked down like 8 times in his last 2 fights.
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

The strange thing is that although I'm not a fan of Khan and I like Bradley, out of all the top guys Khan could fight, I think it's possible he could beat Bradley. Bradley is great , but for some reason the yanks don't like him, so he fights like an idiot to try to show them how tough and exciting he is. Consequently he takes more punishment than he should. Also although Bradley gets through with some big haymakers, he clearly hasn't got loads of power.
So if Khan could keep his discipline and box and move for 12 rounds, and Bradley loses his discipline and strays from the gameplan, Khan could do him on points.
Bradley is a bigger name on his CV than Alexander,Broner or Algieri and is beatable for him, and let's be fair, if he can't beat him, he shouldn't be linking himself with Floyd and Manny.

Frankie Gavin could get the shot!![]()
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Brook has a voluntary defence and I read Hearn was trying to set Gavin in that spot, thereby avoiding an eliminator. Bradley would probably still be in line for an eliminator for the mandatory position.
Khan has really made a mess with his opponent choice, I think he only wants to risk losing against Mayweather or Pacquiao at this stage.
