[Spicoli]

Khan makes good adjustments, nice win. Lucas got him too though

Khan if you think Judahs a better fightr than Tim Bradley right now your smoking rock son

Brilliant performance by Khan. He was expected to win but nobody has ever beaten him like that winning every single round.

All of his other losses were competitve until Zab faded (Tsyzu he was knocked out clean but easily won the first round) Khan just beat him in every department.

Also everyone talking about Khan being the bigger man, I agree he was, but lets not forget he has moved up and Zab down. Khan has the frame to move up and beat guys at 147.

Absolutely one of the best p4p fighters in the world right now. Explosive, exciting, ambitious, and one the biggest PPV star in the UK.

Typically deluded post fight speech by Zab..

I'm still not totally sold on Khan - when Maidana finally realized that throwing a looping right hand against a guy moving to his left might work he almost stopped him - but he's a handful because of his athletic ability. And he's just going to get better technically under Roach. Bradley could certainly beat him but he'll have a field day against the rest of the guys in the division.

I think Alexander or Mathssye would be the biggest threats to Khan at 140, though I don't think either beats him.

Aside from his determination, I don't see anything in Bradley that would trouble Khan - he's not exceptionally fast, he doesn't hit hard, and he has leaky defense. Khan would walk him into punches all night.

Zab Judah was losing the 2nd round to Kostya Tszyu before he got KO'ed, its myth when people say he was dominating Kostya Tszyu up until the KO.

I honestly don't think Bradley would win a single round against Khan.

Flame away.

I kind of agree, but I think it's down to Bradley not being all that he's made out to be + khan's speed.

I think Khan's willingness to swing back as soon as he's hit is going to bite him in the ass one day.

Kahn oughtta stay busy, fight Alexander AND Mathysse before the end of the year and position himslef so that either Floyd or Manny has to fight him.

In today's sport? The kid has ENDLESS upside.

[Mars_ax]

Anyway, you called that one right Generalbulldog.

What a farce of a fight.

[Mar]

This Fight cracks me up !!!! You beat berto and you can beat Floyd lol !!!!! What a Joke . Mayweather is not in the least worried ... And there's good reason for that . I hope he makes. Zero dollars somehow off this farse

[GuyIncognito76]

What's that belt Khan has on his shoulder, it looks like the Ring belt but that fight can't possibly be for that?

Eh, I think Alexander has reached the highest levels he'll reach. Khan would have nothing to worry about against him.

I agree that style wise Bradley could have some problems with Khan because he doesn't have big power but he wouldn't put in a non-effort like Judah did and like Devon would and I don't think he has leaky defense. I would pick Khan over Bradley but some guys Khan would have trouble with (Maidana, Matthyssee) Bradley would school horribly. He's a more complete fighter IMO.

It's exactly what he should be saying imo. Call Bradley out, bit of trash talking and force him into a fight.

I'm not saying he should be there yet, he doesn't make the criteria, but on talent and potential Khan is becoming a top 5 p4p fighter right now.

[CFH]

Richard Schaefer is one slimy-looking and sounding motherfucker.

[Beanflicker]

They give you standing 8-counts when you take an illegal low blow? Thats news to me, Zab.

Shameful display by Zab, he was getting completely outclassed and quit, simple as that.

[Violent Demise]

He doesn’t have the gifts Judah was blessed with. And he’s years paased his prime. But I have no doubt Morales puts up a better fight than that. Not that the fight should happen. But it will
