    I just watched the fight again, maybe not out on his feet. But he was for certain rocked in rounds 1 3 6 7 10 and his legs wern't all together in the last 2 rounds either.

    Everytime he got hit flush his legs buckled.

    He was positively drunk at the end of the 10th. I actually worry a bit about Khan. He doesn't take these punches well at all. Eventually he is going to be in there with someone who has skill AND can punch. He will be all over the place when that happens.

    I havent watched much of Timothy Bradley but is the consensus that the guy who had enough to flatten Junior Witter doesnt carry enough pop to bother Amir?

    Its not only that the guy seems to improve, with every fight and you see something new to his game. Everytime he fights, i mean i thought he was only goodish when i first saw him. Now i think he's the best Jr Welterweight in the world, and a top 10 P4P fighter. He's improved so much in a short time its incredible.

    In the Junior Witter fight you see his underrated power, in the Kendall Holt fight you see his heart to comeback from 2 knockdowns. And in his most recent fight, you see that can he fight against a bigger man. And fight a smart tecnhical fight for 12 rounds. Just like he did vs Lamont Peterson.

    Honestly i think he beats Amir Khan, i haven't see that much improvement in Amir Khan to be honest. Yes it was a brave performance and ETC. But it hasn't changed my mind on his chances vs someone like Timothy Bradley.

    Bradley is definitely number 1 right now. Like you say he has serious heart and a will to win. Him and Khan is a massive fight, and could well be the best fight of 2011 imo. Both will get tested and I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a rematch or even a trilogy.

    For it's a true 50/50 fight. I'm going to go with King Khan though. This kid is going to get better and better. It still baffles me that people dislike him personally. I find him tremendously endearing. Him and Manny are the only fighters who just make me smile when they talk or walk into the ring.

    I never disliked Amir Khan mate, i just wanted to see him step up. He has finally which is good, and lets hope the trend continues because he's exciting all the way.

    Just side not though, he should stay away from that tramp Jordan.
