Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud

[Pugilistic]

Khan wants none of Bradley.

I don't blame him really, Bradley is too experienced and too well rounded for Khan at this point.

A Marquez/Khan fight is interesting because it all depends on what Marquez shows up.

Do we see a slow fat Marquez like against Mayweather or do we see the accurate fast counterpuncher like we saw against Casamayor and Diaz.

I personally think Marquez looked worse at 147 because he was in the ring with Mayweather, the weight was a factor though as his timing and speed weren't what they normally were.

Against Khan, Marquez will be fighting at 140 pounds which is one division below where he fought Mayweather. This is a good thing for Marquez as his timing, speed and power should be sharper. If Marquez is like he was at 135, Khan will be getting a beating and likely ko'd.

I do see Khan causing Marquez trouble with his movement and speed but i see Marquez putting punches together and working Khan's body as the fight progresses, once Khan slows down i see Marquez dropping him later in the fight. Marquez by TKO.

I think this is undoubtedly a tougher fight than Maidana & probably more than Bradley still.

My problem with it is this. Khan hasn't earned a shot at an elite fighter like Marquez. Granted JMM lost his last fight badly, but that was against an ATG. It's more the reasons why Khan's team are going for this fight that piss me off & how Maidana, who whichever way you spin it he should be fighting, is getting shafted & instead is taking the high-risk/low-reward route with Cayo.

Khan could solve all his problems fighting Bradley for the lineal championship (which Pacquiao will vacate as soon as Freddie wants to drop Amir in there). Most people on here know that I'm a bit of a Khan fan & actually *cough* buy his PPVs, but this move just pisses me off. I have a feeling if its close, JMM gets shafted. Again (see mssrs. Norwood, John & Pacquiao).

I agree with JMM being tougher then Maidana in certain senses but Bradley? No way, it just shows how underrated Bradley in because he would eat Khan alive, he's to polished and well rounded at this point for Khan who in my opinion hasn't found an identity in the ring yet. Make no bones about it, Bradley is the #1 fighter at 140 and the best fighter at 140 imo.

I agree Bradley is the best at 140, but for me I see more danger for Khan coming from a guy with the level experience that Marquez has (particularly fighting guys with longer reaches and great handspeed) than I do with Bradley who whilst an excellent fighter, I still see enough weaknesses in to exploit. Khan for me is a better fighter than Holt or Peterson, but those two still gave Bradley some trouble. I think a Khan/Bradley fight would be a lot more competitive than most people think

I don't think Khan is a better fighter then Peterson, so I guess we differ there but I don't see how Khan would beat Bradley on points. Bradley fights to much of every round and I don't think Khan is at all seasoned enough to win enough rounds from Bradley.

What does it matter really?JMM is a marquee name with top exposure...literally for Khan....exposure.He'll just get taken deep and counter punched all night,a classroom for young Khan losing to a great.Bradley has been a solid respectable champion,hitting his stride who fights all comers though lacks name status.Not stellar is any one area but top notch in all,and has improved over last two go's...that said he too beats Khan.But via TKO.Bradley is one of the most slept on fighters going,and all he does is fight his ass off and win.Khan wants none of him,but will make better bank on Marquez.
