gavpowell Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Khan - he's fast, hits pretty hard, has good footwork and seems to pick his punches more these days. Bradley doesn't do anything exceptionally well and I expected Alexander to beat him, so I'd back Khan quite happily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skav Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Agree with gav, Khan's got too much for him. My only concern would be the head butts. This is great for boxing if this happens, another unification bout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grapevine241 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 tough fight to call. my initial reaction is khan's speed is the difference, but it think bradley has a good shot at winning a decision. hes more active and more dimensional than maidana, though which much less power. so my pick right now is bradley like 115-113 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallen Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Got to go with Khan he will have reach and speed advantage,plus his win over Maidana will give him more confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leerhodes Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Khan too fast for bradley,bradley not a devastating puncher only one result for me khan to pick bradley off with ease and win on points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted February 26, 2011 Author Share Posted February 26, 2011 I should have put technical decision in the Poll as headbutts could well play a part. grin// Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khan sometimes stumbles into an opponent - he throws shots and then gets off balance - something that needs tgo be sorted out. The stumbling along with Bradleys style could well cause a clash of heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manwithnoname Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Bradley will decision him. The guy's too versatile and determined, I see him reaching deep and adjusting to find ways around any trouble Amir gives him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynbrawler Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Khan is fast but he is not powerful, and Bradley has the edge in accuracy, experience and ring-craft. He's slated for the headclashes which have cropped up in recent fights, but could Khan live with something like that if the going got tough? I would think not at this stage. He proved a lot against Maidana, but he was facing a guy who is there to be hit. Bradley is a different kettle of fish, and while Khan has been brought along with a lot of hand-picked opponents, I think Bradley is the one who could be a step too far.

londoner Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Khan on PTS. Too tall, too fast, too skillful and i doubt Bradley's head reaches Khan's eyes. Also, with Roach in Khan's corner, he'll make sure Khan stays away from Bradley's head all night using his jab effectively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Pity this ain't happening. But can see why Bradley wants to get out of his contract with Shaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
londoner Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 To be honest there are plenty of great fights to be made so i wouldn't even mind seeing Bradley fight Pacquiao while Khan fights the likes of Judah, Guerrero, Maidana and Prescott rematches etc...
