With 140 heating up, Bradley decides to leave the division...

[jrosales13]

He is not leaving 140. The problem is that it was hard for him to get a fight at 140 against anybody relevant. Shaw contacted Golden boy so Bradley could fight Maidana but Golden boy passed. Khan didn't want none. They're trying to build up Alexander for a showdown at the end of the year. Ortiz is busy, there was really nobody for him to fight right now at 140. So he is taking an interim fight at 147. Is better for him to take a tune up then just sit out and do nothing.

Haha, Timothy Bradley has a stan.

says SUPER M@NY!!

[Eaner0919]

Bradley coudve waited for Alexander and Maidana.

Abregu has the power to knock him senseless. This was a ****** fight to make. He gains nothing at all by winning.

no he doesn't cmon

Well it doesn't surprise me how little you know, but when u call out everybody in the 140 and being avoided in the division. Sometimes u have to take risk and taking on a underfeated fighter in a higher weight class hopes to opening doors for him...

Take a risk? against Abregu, the guy just flat out isn't that good. He better whoop his ass or he really isn't that good. I have only seen Bradley fight a couple times and I think he has got skills but I also think he is overrated at this point. I don't really think he has been that impressive, not saying he doesn't have the tools to do so, but his resume don't impress me that much.

Abregau have some sick power and he is big big welterweight.

I think he has that Andre Berto power. Were he shows great power against lesser opponents. But, doesn't show the power to stop top level fighters. And, both times he has stepped up against David Estrada and Richard Gutierrez he was not able to stop them. And, Bradley is on another level above Estrada and Gutierrez. I don't see Abregu being to stop Bradley. I don't even think Abregu has the power to keep Bradley off of him when Abgregu gets on his bicycle.

To fight unknown, but undefeated Luis Abregu (29-0-23 KOs) at 147. WTF, lots of great possible fights for Bradley at 140 now and he moves up to fight some nobody?

Oh well, at least we'll see Khan vs Malignaggi, Ortiz vs Campbell and hopefully Maidana vs Alexander. A Bradley vs Fat Ass Guzman would round things out nicely at 140 (pun intended).

Can someone explain to me why Timmy is moving out of the star studded Jr Welterweight division? We all know little Timmy is not a Welterweight.

he's trying to get a fight with pac or mayweather.

no just no

Good luck with that... Manny's got bigger fish to fry and May will want every PED test known to man with the way Bradley's built.
