Why wouldn't he? Bradley is not gonna outbox Floyd. And he can't hurt him either. Floyd is absolutely all wrong for Tim.
Bradley is a top level fighter with some pretty good boxing skills himself. I don't think Floyd is all wrong for Bradley. He can catch Floyd with a good shot if he just keeps fighting smart.
There's also a good chance Bradley might do what Maidana did and just be more aggressive (in which he was when he was up against Alexander, so it wouldn't be anything new for him). Tim seems like he studies other fights and use them as a way to help him beat his opponents so that will likely be the case here.
Question worth posing:
If Timothy Bradley was in the GB stable during Floyd's Showtime run -- would he have even considered him?

Well it is interesting to note that 9 of Floyd's last 10 fights have been against fighters who aren't black. And the one black fighter he did face -- a 38 year old Shane Mosley.
Yup. That's crazy...that's definitely NOT a coincidence.

I'm not a fan of Devon but hes right
Floyd hasn't fought a black fighter in over 4 years
Hes got rocked with Mosley, Judah, Corley, Augustus and got his ass whooped by Peterson in sparring
#factsonly
There's an old video (esnews I think) where ellerbe said floyd don't fight black fighters cause it won't sell good since he fights on mexican holidays.
I like Devon, but why does he coming with racial statements lately? It's like he believes in the racial supremacy of the black boxer. The same guy got gifts against Kotelnik & Matthysse.
Most people want to see Floyd knockout who has better chance to do Bradley or Devon or Chino or Canelo?
Since you asked .....Chino had pillow gloves and green Canelo was drained to 152 ......
The only fighter I hate as much as Devon is Tarver. I don't wish ill on these men that step in the ring but I literally look forward to this guy losing. Like the patriots
Wait, Walt passed????
I don't get why people seem to hate the idea of a Mayweater vs. Alexander fight. At least Alexander is not like Maidana or Canelo, or Guerrero so this would be a different kind of fight that I wouldn't mind seeing.

So now Mayweather is avoiding "BLACK FIGHTERS"? Last Black Fighter TRULY Worthy of a shot a Mayweather AT WELTERWEIGHT was MOSLEY, granted MOSLEY was OLD but after Mosley destroyed Margarito people forget that NOBODY wanted to fight Mosley and Mayweather did
But fans are Hypocrites because they don' even call for Mayweather to fight Black Fighters, at least on this Forum rarely have I seen people calling for Mayweather to fight a Black Fighter
If it is anybody Black Fighter at Welterweight worthy of a shot at Mayweather, despite losing his last fight to Pacquiao, that would be Timothy Bradley!
Can't blame Mayweather for Shawn Porter losing, because Porter name was being thrown around A LOT. Also anybody remember the NEGATIVE Backlash when Mayweather announced via Twitter that he was in negotiations with Devon Alexander before eventually getting a deal done with Robert Guerrero?

Just like years ago everybody was calling for Mayweather vs Cotto and Mayewather vs Margarito but nobody was calling for Mayweather vs Winky Wright or Mayweather vs Vernon Forrest
Not making it about race but I do think boxing is more INTERESTING and does better when it is two different fighters to two different Ethnicity and/or Nationalities, for example Mexican vs Rican, American vs Others.... match ups like that seems more appealing
Oh sh1t, now i know why Kevin Cunningham never lets Devon do interviews...the guy is simply fcuking thick as sh1t.
He genuinely comes across as a guy with below average intelligence. Poor kid. Thick and boring and grunts like a little b1tch when he fights. "It burns"
Why does everything have to be about race with this guy? it's not black fighters that floyd fears,Floyd would fight K9 bundrage any day. He's scared of fighters with speed of hand and feet, make that fighter a southpaw with one of the best left hands ever and he starts stuttering and developing amnesia.
