To be fair to Wazza though, Kotelnik was robbed blind against Witter. As he was against Alexander.

There's so much wrong with what Kahn said here, I don't even know where to start. Here he goes again, acting like he runs the show. He was the one that mentioned (after his fight w/Malignaggi) there should be a tournament between the 4 guys, that's much is true. Even then, he was the one sounding off, stating who should do what and when. But to my recollection when he was approached by HBO (or whoever) about actually doing the tournament, he declined. I'm pretty sure the article is here on BS here somewhere.
Furthermore, I don't recall Timothy ever saying there was no one left at 140 pound division, the reason he went up to 147 was to test the waters in a higher weight class to make himself relevant for a Pac fight. And, Kahn doesn't have a clue what he is talking about regarding Carlos Abregu. Say what you want about the Bradley/Abregu fight, but Abregu was an opponent with a height/reach advantage at his natural weight, who was undefeated with a high K.O. ratio and also rated #5 by several organizations. So first, Kahn saying Abregu wasn't even rated in the top 10 is false, and secondly, Abregu was a far more dangerous opponent (at a higher weight class, which Bradley had never fought before) than Kahn has been willing to take on since the Prescott fight.
The worst part about all Kahns talk is that he probably will have more viewers for his next fight... but I'm willing to bet that a large majority of them will be routing for him to be in the same position he was in at the end of the Presoctt fight - in LaLa Land!
So what, he finally signed to fight Maidana! He was going to have to do it sooner or later so big whoop-di-doo. I think the only reason that he's signed as of now is because Maidana wasn't going to let Kahn play boss and had the organization order a purse bid. Otherwise, he would still be dragging his feet, or saying Maidana "outpriced" himself as an excuse why the fight wouldn't happen. If Kahn would have let it go to purse bid, he would have surely gotten less pay then.

I think Khan has faced the better opposition than Bradley, Though Bradley has unified titles and then vacated them to duck Alexander.
Khan has not yet unified any titles, That being said Khan -V- Maidana is a massive fight and the boxing fans here should be happy that the fight is being made. Khan deserves credit for fighting Maidana, Maidana is a dangerous fighter than can turn the fight around at any time.
Maidana is alot more dangerous than Alexander.
