I actually think it's a very hard fight. If Khan's chin was solid I'd think it was probably an 80-20 fight in his favour but Bradley's toughness versus Khan's vulnurabilities shortens the odds considerably. Thing is, I can't actually see Bradley stopping Khan. Only 11 ko's in his career I just don't think he has the power. He's more like Juan Diaz when he was at his best, overpowering guys with sheer pressure rather than punch power.
I think Khan sweeps the early rounds and holds on down the stretch to win a fairly comfortabe decision but with acouple scary moments.
Kahn isn't forcing critics to eat their words. He is improving dramatically and therefore changing the equation. A year ago a far lesser Kahn would likely have been eaten up by Bradley in my view. He would also have been eaten up by the Kahn who fought this weekend. He's a LOT better than the guy who beat Malignaggi.
I think it's called 'The Roach factor' and that is only going to become more apparent.
