    Amir Khan, Timothy Bradley Go To War on Twitter


    By Mark Vester

    Junior welterweight champion Timothy Bradley and Amir Khan waged a war of words on twitter over the last few hours. Bradley said enough was enough when he saw an article where Khan said he would clean his clock if they met in the ring [click here to read]. The two 140-pounders have been waging a verbal war for the last few days.

    Bradley - Amir Khan said he will knock me out. Bring it on baby I will fight you next! If your a man face me next and not [Juan Manuel] Marquez.

    Khan - Your turn will come, just get in the que. I want to face a better bunch of opponents first.

    Bradley - Until you face me you will never get the respect...period! So who you [are] going to face next then?

    Khan - Tim Bradley is dying for a pay day. Tell him get in the que of better opponents and wait his turn to get KO'd.

    Bradley - Dude what you talking about? Believe in my own hype? I've beaten [Kendall] Holt, [Lamont] Peterson, [Junior] Witter, [Nate] Campbell. I deserve a pay day.

    Khan - Remember one thing, I'd beat everyone who you beat. I'd KO them. Infact, you avoided [Andreas] Kotelnik and [Dimitry] Salita. Who's the b**ch now?

    Bradley - I avoided Kotelnik and Salita?? Please explain how I avoided them? I think you're the ducker. Who's your mandatory? [Marcos] Maidana.

    Dude I highly doubt you would have beaten Kendal Holt in 2009, maybe now but not when I fought him.

    If you face Maidana next fair enough, he's your mandatory but if you face Marquez you know there will be a backlash against you about. You gotta be a man and tell Richard Schaefer you wanna face legit 140 pounders not blown-up lightweights.

    Khan - Maidana has a bad back. I wanted him. You say you want to fight but indirectly you don't. You overprice yourself and say I'm scared...come on!

    Bradley - You paid Maidana step-aside money. You're the ducker son!

    Your ego is too big. Humble yourself before someone shatters your glass jaw!

    Overprice myself? What are you talking about? Gary Shaw and Richard haven't even discussed financial details.

    Amir Khan: "I'm The Best, I'd Knock Tim Bradley Out!"


    By Lem Satterfield

    WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan is in Las Vegas to watch this Saturday's rematch between Juan Manuel Marquez and Juan Diaz at the Mandalay Bay. If Marquez comes out with the win, he is likely to face Khan on December 11 on HBO.

    Recently Khan challenged the man most recognize as the best fighter in the junior welterweight division, WBO champion Timothy Bradley. Khan studied Bradley's recent welterweight debut against Carlos Abregu. After watching that fight, the British champion became convinced that he would put a serious hurt on Bradley if they met in the ring.

    "After seeing Timothy Bradley fight, I think that he's made for my style. He's short, and I think that he's made for me to hit him. He's not as strong as me. I think that I would be the first guy to beat him up and knock him out," Khan said.

    Khan felt Abregu, who is not that fast, caught Bradley with a lot of punches. Bradley pulled off a one-sided twelve round decision. Because of the way Abregu was able to land - Khan, who is a lot faster than Abregu, believes he would catch Bradley with punches all night long.

    [Abregu] was catching him so many times. And that guy's not even the best. If he was fighting Amir Khan it would be a whole different story. I could say that right now I'm the best in the division," Khan said.

    Marcos Maidana Answers Both Amir Khan, Tim Bradley


    By Marcos Maidana

    After reading the “war on Twitter” article between Amir Khan and Timothy Bradley posted on boxingscene.com today - I'm feeling in the mood to give them both a little answer.

    First of all, Khan should keep himself much more updated before talking. I’ve clarified hundreds of times in recent weeks that I had no bad back whatsoever. That was a ridiculous excuse presented to Golden Boy Promotions and HBO by my former manager when I told him that I would not fight Bradley for the little money he offered me. So, God first, let me take care of Demarcus Corley on August 28 in my return bout and then I’ll be ready to face you before the end of this year. Amir, no more excuses, you are my mandatory.

    As far as Bradley, I respect him because he does not duck anyone. But I got very fraustrated because for the above mentioned reason I couldn’t get in the ring with him. Now that I’ve cleared all my managerial and economic issues, I’d love to face him, too shut his promoter Gary Shaw’s big mouth. Here I am, Timmy, I wait for you, too.

    God bless you both.

    I fucking hate Khan he's such a bum. He'll take on Marquez who'll be a hundred years old at the time of the fight, don't get me wrong I'm a huge Marquez fan and he beat and drew with Pacquiao but his best is behind him. Tim Bradley will beat Khan comfortably, if Maidana doesn't knock him out and end his career first.

      Why everyone hate on my man Khan. Dude is still relatively raw and is still building confidence from his KO loss to Prescott. Once Roach gets him to where he wants him he will be able to get in there with Alexander and Bradley and make a decent scrap of it in both cases.

        Roach and Golden Boy know Khan has no chin so he's being sheltered from Maidana and the good boxers in that division.

          Time will tell. Better defense and overall technique will compensate for his chin.

            That's true, but so far they've relied on home decisions and bad opponents.

              Right now I would say no one should want to get in the ring with Maidana, Bradley maybe the class of the division, but Maidana is a warrior who hits real hard, Khan and Alexander to me are like a slight step down. all 4 are great to watch though.

                Maidana isnt anything special. he has heart and can thump but anyone who fights smart can beat him. Vic Ortiz should have beaten him easily but he chose to slug it out and quit. He will be smarter next time around.
