It has to be between Bradley and Alexander, but I don;t think either of them are the very very elite in boxing and both of them are beatable.

Khan has the skills to beat them infact, but I just see him getting steamrollered inside a couple of rounds due to his chin.

I reckon Bradley beats Alexander, but they both have a few decent wins now.

Alexander got me on board as a fan with his knockout display over Urango last time out.

 

He looked the business against Witter, also, but I felt Witter was, perhaps, getting a bit over the hill.

 

I would pick Alexander to reign supreme out of the lot of them.

 

I've never really been impressed with Bradley, to be honest.

bradley is the king at 140 and has proven it. alexander and khan are a toss up for #2. alexander beat urango and witter (who quit out of nowhere), so his resume is very thin. like him or not, khan dominated malignaggi and kotelnik. so i have 140 like this:

 

1. bradley

2. khan

3. alexander

4. maidana

5. kotelnik (yes i realize kotelnik beat maidana)

There is no king currently. Bradley is top rated but Devon Alexander was more impressive against Witter than Bradley and Alexander is a unified belt holder. A KO of Urango is also far more impressive than any win to Bradley's name.

You also have to give some bearing to the fact that Alexander won a unification bout, and holds half of the legitimate titles at the weight, and the manner in which they have both performed so far.

Alexander doesn't appear to have any weaknesses, he's an all-round great fighter, though not exceptional. Khan has a very weak chin, and is top heavy on speed, which is only going to be effective against a portion of carefully selected opponents, such as Malignaggi and Kotelnik...

If they ever fought, I could never choose Khan over Alexander in a million years.

bradley did unify then they took his belt back. in fact, alexander fought for the title that went vacant after bradley was forced to give it up. i agree with you that i would choose alexander over khan but i dont base a ranking on what if i base it on real accomplishments.

i disagree. bradley's wins over witter, holt, and peterson are much more impressive than alexander's one real win over urango. also, like i said above, bradley did unify two titles but was stripped.

 

TBH i was never really impressed by bradley until he beat lamont peterson. alexander just hasnt faced top competition like bradley and khan have.

Devon Alexander.

 

the guy is quality and has everything, only thing that is missing is experience and that'll come

 

i've got it like:

 

1.) Alexander

2.) Bradley

3.) Khan

 

it's a shame, Valero could of been the man to be 140 king and IMO would of beat any of these 3 once he'd got a few more fights under his belt
