    Bradley-Peterson Saga, Top Rank Appeal 9/11 Ruling

    The dispute hanging over the Timothy Bradley-Lamont Peterson bout is far from over. BoxingScene.com was advised that Peterson's promoter Top Rank has appealed the September 11 decision by the WBO, which directs both parties to use "Section 14" [of the WBO's rules and regulations] to split the purse amount of $575,000.

    If Bradley isn't getting the lions share he should fight someone else. Peterson couldn't tie his shoes.

        Totally agree! Who has Peterson beat anyway? he should not get 50-50...he should be happy to get 30% of the purse. Beat Bradley and then you can demand more money.

          Peterson couldn't tie Bradley's shoes? That's a bold statement, Bradley's as overrated. Bradley struggled with the worst form of Kendall Holt we've seen. Unless Peterson has an unseen paper-mâché chin, he's too slick and too technically smart for Bradley. I see Peterson getting the clear UD or possible late stoppage in my opinion.

            so what he is still the bigger name and should get the bigger split. Nd well see when it happens but i think bradley will pull it out.

              Peterson is the challenger who hasn't fought anyone. Bradley should 60/40 him at least really.

                That's crazy. It shouldn't be 50/50. Bradley should get the majority.

                60/40 in favor of Bradley should do it.

                  I agree that Bradley should get the bigger share, never disputed that. Even if Peterson was forced to fight bums while waiting for his shot at Bradley, he couldve at least fought bums with names/"gatekeeper" credibility to make himself some money. He made what he made in those fights and the rules are the rules.

                  My arguement was with the "Peterson couldn't tie Bradley's shoes" comment. Well see fight night though brotha

                    You got any of Peterson's fights or know where i can watch them?
                    Can't find any of his fights anywhere which is weird considering he's the Interim WBO champ.
