    Godfather Arum's latest hit: Tim Bradley under tent for Manny Pacquiao

    Godfather Arum's latest hit: Tim Bradley under tent for Manny Pacquiao

    Genius, Godfather Bob Arum will put unbeaten WBO champ Tim Bradley in Top Rank bullpen for MannyBob Arum will be an octogenarian soon but he is tireless when it comes to lining cannon fodder for his ultimate cash cow Manny Pacquiao.

    Now the Top Rank Top Dog has used his sleight of hand to set everything up to bring undefeated WBO 140 pound world champion Tim “Desert Storm” Bradley into his promotional tent and thus set the completely overrated Californian up as a viable opponent for the Pinoy Idol.

    Wednesday’s news flash was that Bradley, whose TKO victory over Nate Campbell properly became a no contest after a ruling by the California commission, has suddenly signed a managerial contract with Arum’s personal puppet, manager Cameron Dunkin.

    I don’t know if he still does but Dunkin Donuts, a portly lad, used to take his office phone calls and make his calls at the Top Rank Tower in the Howard Hughes complex in Las Vegas.

    Dunkin, whose personality ranges from glum to morose, does not even speak to TR matchmaker Bruce Trampler and vice versa. The two have a long term vendetta going on.

    But why should Godfather Bob care about that when “Southland” Trampler is on his payroll and Dunkin does his bidding. Dunkin only takes fighters to outside promoters when Uncle Bob gives him a free pass.

    Look, Bradley has a promotional deal with Big Gary Shaw. These guys really hate each other so it’s a matter of minutes before Dunkin tries to escapes the grip of Shaw and his slavish network, Shawtime.

    Some people call that network Showtime.

    Bradley dumps Shaw, Bradley dumps Ken Hershman and Shawtime. The tea leaves are easy to read.

    If Floyd Mayweather does not dummy up, after Cotto-Pacman, you will see Bradley-Pacman.

    Bradley couldn’t hit Megammany in the ass with a bag of brown rice.

    The real Godfather is Marsa Bob Arum, no doubt.

    Dunkin is his magnificent marionette.

    Exit Big Gary Shaw, stage left.

    Interesting, didn't expect this. If true good to hear. Bradley will get bigger fights with Top Rank hopefully.

        Whoever thinks this fight would be a mismatch is obviously a huge Pacquiao fan or just does't know a whole lot about boxing.Bradley is younger and just as fast and quick as Manny. He is the better boxer and the better athlete.Although it would be very exciting, Bradley wins by un.decision.

          You're tripping. Bradley is SLOPPY. He made his name off beating two other sloppy fighters in Junior Witter and Kendall Holt and picked on poor old Nate Campbell. I'd bet real money Bradley gets beat by Amir Khan.

            Bradley is the only guy @ 140 that could beat Pacquaio. Amir Khan would get his china chin BUSTED by TB, you can bet real money on that.

                  Bradley is American. No chance he can get a fight with Pacman, unless he claims to be Rican
