    As much as it pains me to say it I think a well disciplined Khan performance beats any of them - he is much more naturally gifted, bigger and has the speed to do it. Of course if someone like Maidana caught him it would be game over but as I said if he stays disciplined.....



    The Ring online did a series of 'mock' fight reports this past week on how a tournament along the lines of the super six would g in the 140 division - had Khan beating Bradley by UD in final (and climbing off the canvas to do it )

    mock semi finals here

    At this point no way does Amir Khan beat Timothy Bradley, its just amazing how much Timothy Bradley has improved. At first i doubted him but he really has gone from strength to strength.

    We've pretty much seen all different sides to him, we know he can turn a fight around with one punch aka Junior Witter. We know he can brawl and comeback from adversity aka Kendall Holt. We know he can fight on the backfoot and outbox a bigger dangerous opponent aka Luis Carlos Abregu.

    He's too well rounded and he keeps getting better and better, i think he beats Amir Khan over 12 quite comfortably 8 rounds to 4.

    As for Devon Alexander IMO he reminded me of Jermain Taylor in his last fight, wasting alot of energy and not focusing enough on accuracy. I think he can get better but there's no doubting he got a gift, and whilst Andriy Kotelnik may be quite good technically.

    He's not that good in other departments, infact he's quite mediocre in alot of departments, any elite fighter would comfortably outpoint Andriy Kotelnik. I mean this is the same guy who couldn't beat Souleymane M'baye in two outings, and he was one of the worst belt holders in recent times.

    IMO its basically Timothy Bradley then everyone else.

    Give over, he's not even one of the worst belt holders in the last few years at 140. You've got Maussa, Rees, M'Baye, Urango and i'd even say Vivian Harris. Kotelnik is a solid fighter. Not spectacular nor eye catching, but he's decent.

    Mate you got the wrong end of the stick, i said Souleymane M'baye was one of the worst title holders in recent times not Andriy Kotelnik.

    Although thats not saying alot about Andriy Kotelnik, who couldn't beat him in 2 fights. As i've stated to me Andriy Kotelnik isn't bad technically and he's got a decent defense, but other than that he's quite mediocre.

    I want to start out by saying so far Bradley and Maidana are the top of this division. Mr. Khan although skilled with a high work volume of speed needs the opponent in front of him. Bradley would rough him up or KO him. Maidana, well surprise he hits hard and has incredible endurance and quit is not in his vocabulary. Alexander is not prepared or maybe he's just lucky. Don't knock on Bradley's door or Maidana's just yet. Ortiz is a large question mark especially in the ticker category so we have to wait and see. Easy opponents will only prolong the inevitable, Could it be he just took things too far? As for Khan once again, you are your own worst enemy fighting on your holiday fasting for forty days. Just for the sake of your fans, remeber there's 365days on the calender you are entitled to use.

    I think he's learned his lesson. He's not even going to start training until after Ramadan has finished this time.
