Possible candidates are Miguel Cotto, Kell Brook or JMM. wildcards are Danny Garcia and Mayweather???
Check out this article from The Desert Sun:
Timothy Bradley could fight in July

What say you
Is this connected to Crawford vs Postol maybe?
Seems like a quick turnaround for Tim. I wasn't expecting him back til the end of the year.
If he's fighting fit & ready to go ago fair play. The PPV angle seems a bit much after a PPV 3 mos before, but if the fight is good & the card is good fair play there too.
I'm thinking one of those old school split site PPVs that they used to do back in the day.
Bradley didn't get any PPV money from me in his last fight with Pacquiao. After losing, he also won't be getting any from me if he fights again in July. I don't care who he fights.
I don't want to see Bradley on TV for awhile especially if it's another PPV. This guy has to be one of the most overrated 147lb of all time. Could easily be 2wins-4loses-2draws in his last 8 rights and he's a PPV fighter he had stunk at 147 and been fighting small welterweights in the top recycle carousel.
Fvck that Bradley don't deserve it with that garbage performance against pacquiao. Fought the guy 24 rounds and fight him a 3rd time and you look lost in there against a old pacquiao.
Kell Brook fights like a coward, so I'd rather see him go against Cotto OUT of the REALISTIC options. Marquez is like been there, done that. We know Danny and Floyd are out of the question. Not only are they with Haymon but they are ducking Bradley, specially floyd, since Bradley would beat both with ease.
I doubt its Cotto, Cotto would never fight on an undercard and I am sure HBO's budget isnt big enough for Cotto. Could be Jesse Vargas or hell maybe even Lamont Peterson, Peterson fights for pennies on the dollar which is music to Uncle Bob's ears.
It's gotta be on PPV no matter who he fights fact that relatively unknown guys like Crawford and Postol's fight is on PPV. Fighters want too much money now especially when it's a risky fight. Otherwise, the Crawford/Postol wouldn't have been signed.
Like Lucas and Khan did?
While I do think Tim UD's that ass, I never said in the post you quoted anything about what i thought would happen.
I just simply stated that my choice for a Tim opponent would be Danny.
Would he really take on a big-name opponent on that short of a turnaround?
Roc Nation needs a PPV opponent for Cotto, so if he's willing to come down in weight I guess that fight makes some sense...although nobody is really clamoring for that fight.
Brook and Garcia don't seem likely.
I didn't think Marquez was going to fight this summer, especially not against a top level fighter.
They could easily do that fight at 154.
Idk Tim & Terence are tight. Maybe Tim is trying to help out his partner. If you throw Tim on that card it probably looks a whole lot better to HBO. And they can always figure out the money. I mean Manny with his $20M out of the way now allows for much lower PPV numbers to turn a profit for everyone.
Although you could be right about the bad info too. I'm just taking it at face value, but I can't recall someone doing a PPV 3 months after a PPV.
Last year we had 3 PPVs back to back.

i think this is bad info. maybe its cotto but that would probably have to wait to aug
