Bradly doesn't match up well with Khan either. He doesn't have one punch knock out and Khan speed will be too much.

Oscar De La Hoya admits addictions
Former boxing champion Oscar De La Hoya said he thought about suicide and has been going to rehab because he has become dependent on drugs and alcohol in an interview with Spanish-language network Univision.
"Rock bottom was recently," De La Hoya said, according to an English-language transcript provided by the network. "Within couple of years, just thinking if my life was even worth it. I don't have the strength, I don't have the courage to take my own life but I was thinking about it."
De La Hoya says he has been sober for three months after undergoing treatment and joining Alcoholics Anonymous.
He said he was unfaithful to his wife and that they were separated for a while. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/m ... &eref=sihp

It also doesn't help that HBO has banked so much money to him that he has this sense of entitlement. I hope he loses. I hate that he used the anemia card, ( i am anemic by the way) as a way to sugarcoat the fact that he lost vs Ortiz. He didn't have this look in his eye bull...
