It's one rule for US fighters, another for everybody else...

bradley is just a massive tease and a moron,why call out khan so much to then change your mind with your promoter and sit out fighting him on july all of a sudden to just get out of your promoter contract early.

Well,i guess we can wait till after july when bradley has a new contract and might fight then.

I dont think he should get pac fight,i hope pac slays marquez and floyd gets brave or poor enough to take the fight finally.

Bradley should have to beat khan and be 140 best before even being considered for a shot vs pacman.

It's not Bradley's fault

Yep, pretty biased on NSB regarding Americans.

Floyd demands Manny drug tests - most Yanks agree and scream for it
Pascal demands it of Hopkins - a lot of wriggling and left to rest by most people
Joe Calzaghe or any Euro fighter who doesnt want to travel to the declining American boxing market gets slaughtered, yet undefeated chumps like Floyd and Ward enjoy home cooking and dont knowhow to leave their neighbourhood but get limited flack and dont take the risks of going abroad to garner new fans and revenue.

The list could go on......if they are Euro or Mexican they are bums without skills; face first fighters, if they are black and american then are the best thing since sliced bread until they get waxed by a Euro or Mexian bum and shown to have a glass heart or glass jaw.

Devon Alexander, Junior Witter, Lamont Peterson, Nate Campbell, Kendall Holt, and tune up vs WELTERWEIGHT >>>>>>>> Maidana, Paulie, Kotelnik, and tune up against british garbage McCloskey. FACT. Not to mention Bradley hasn't got knocked out by the likes of Prescott either. It's not Bradley's fault, it's HBO's. They will fight but not til later this year, DEAL WITH IT. Stop crying like a female.

Hardly a massive difference..

Alexander was/is green/overhyped after knocking out Urango.. Peterson is really that good? Nate Campbell was a win to Bradley?? wasn't it stopped after 4 cause of a headbutt (i can't remeber exactly).

Kendall Holt was probably the best win out of that list

Bradley is not ducking Khan, he just wants to fight for TOP RANK.

First off hopkins has to be rated higher then calzaghe because joe did not fight the best guys. Yes he was a win over hopkins, and yes he was a great talent. But do you mean to tell me that since joe has a win over him that automaticly makes him better?

Who's better, ricardo mayorga or vernon forrest?
Buster douglas or mike tyson
Jermain taylor or hopkins

The list could go on and on.

And the states have a much deeper talent pool. For example, who did ricky hatton beat on his way up the rankings(fights in uk) only names I recall are tyzu. Now who did mayweather fight?
The opponents on floyds list spanks hattons list (except for tyzu).
I am not saying hatton was not good. Just that the States have a deeper talent pool which makes them the number 1 boxing country.

I am not from the states, I'm just keeping it real

So your saying Maidana, Paulie, Kotelnik, McCloskey beat alexander, petersen, holt, abregu?

I am saying it runs it pretty close...

None of those names particuarly stand out to me

Kotelnik is probably the best of the lot though as a fighter, got robbed vs Witter/Alexander and has a win over Maidana

[QUOTE=Rip Chudd;10598146]Ok so with your logic then you have to admit that Amir Khan isn't better then Breidis Prescott because he lost to him. C'mon man, get your head out of your behind.[/QUOT

I was commenting on the thread title. Do I think Hopkins first pro opponent is better because he beat him, no I don't but its the same logic. That isn't contradictory because the parity in experience between Hopkins and Calzaghe left no excuses but dumb and arrogant americans on this site still think Hopkins is better.Prescott beat Khan fair and square when neither were champions let alone veterans, if they fought again I would give Prescott every chance of doing it again. Some fighters just have another ones number,does that make them better yes it does.
Oh and as far as your throw away comment on taking my head out my ass, well thats just another perfect example of ignorant dismissive arrogance from american's on this site. What is sad about that is you are to dumb to realize thats what you were doing.
So thanks for endorsing my point and go **** yourself.

[.WaRCoTTo.]

I really believe it's a promotional issue, and the people currently handling Bradley, He's not comfortable with the deal, fine, I bet he won't settle for a weak opponent in his next fight even if it isn't Khan.
