I don't know if he hits harder than Maidana or not but I know he's a hell of a lot faster. Maidana was sooo slow Amir was making him miss badly. If Maidana was faster he could of threw some combinations to get amir out of there but since he's soo slow he had to throw haymakers that we're landing toward the end because Khan faded. IMO Bradley can knock Khan out. Khan looked real fast against Maidana (a slow guy) let's see how fast he is against Bradley.

Bradley should concentrate on Alexander rather than looking ahead to the 140 final showdown with Khan.

Noway Khan fades against Timmeh. Maidana was on him like a rash and landing bombs. Timmeh isn't a pressure fighter like Maidana, hence not much backfoot fighting required from Khan. He is quicker than Maidana but Maidana also took alot of hits, neutrilised Khans jab. Timmeh wont do that.

I cant wait for Khan-Bradley to get it on.

Bradley has hit the nail on the head here. I am a huge Khan fan and I fear that Bradley's work rate will cause Khan to tire in the later rounds. In terms of pure skill I think Khan is the better boxer but Bradley has more heart and a higher work rate. This fight could come down to exactly that - does Khan have the stamina to fight 12 rounds at a high pace???

khan is technically better than bradley and he knows it. khan did slow down tho but that could be due to the punches he took, im not so sure bradley can **** like maidana.

Exactly. Khan is not going to be running away from Bradley like he did against Maidana. Tim is fast and slick but he would not have faced a fast moving guy like Khan. I see this fight being very technical and this fight will not be even half as entertaining as the Khan-Maidana fight. If Khan can handle Maidana's power then he will easily handle Bradley's power but he may have problems with the right hand counters he usually struggles against.

I suggest some of you take a look at the last couple of rounds of Khan vs Kotelnik, then you'll see how Khan fades. He was knackered and Kotelnik was chasing him, please re-watch.
