      It's true.

      Bradley beat Holt

      Ortiz should beat Nate.

      Alex beat Urango.

      Khan should beat Paulie hopefully.

      That sets up everyone with a decent name on their resume

        Agreed. Dude has more to worry about. Just looking for attention, first he needs to get his L from Bradley then he can get another shot after he beats Bradley's left overs.

          LOL Roy would have bashed Dariuz and you know it, they wanted no parts of Roy come on, and to be serious were talking about guys on the same continent who fought in the same Amatuers a great argument can always be made about who didn't want to leave their country for whatever reasons so get out of here with that Roy by far had the better career what did Dariuz accomplish that Roy could not have or did not. He beat John ruiz 10 years before David Haye beat a vintage James Toney, and Toney would have beat the snot out of Dariuz

            If that happens I would be happy for Bradley, b/c then he would fight Berto since Berto has 2 wins over him in the Amateurs. That would be a blockbuster, 2 fast fighters with history already!!!

              sounds kind of like a tournament already in play, whatever happens for Khan after next week will settle alot of this b/c there ain't to much wiggle room in the division and eventually all these names will have an intersection or face more critisism. Don't get me wrong I like Tim Bradley but Mayweather is a fan of Devon Alexander so a Bradley/Mayweather fight will never happen, the only reason I bring that up is b/c Bradley said he wants to fight Mayweather or Pacquiao but they ain't even looking in his direction.

                Never that linear

                I really like Tim Bradley and Devon Alexander but Devon's manager is trying to make this sound linear and its not. Sure its easy for him to say they should just fight but his fighter, Devon, isn't the big dawg. None of them are superstars yet but Tim sits in the lead at the moment. Devon is a 2-title champion and they need to pay his opponent right. If you want an up and comer to take a chance at setting his career back 2 or 3 years, then he should at least get compensated for it. Offering guys chump change to take on a 2 title champion isn't going to fly.

                  Blink from a business stand point u are absolutely correct. I can't argue with that at all, from a hungry fan of the sport I always want to see the best fight the best. Last year was a tough year for boxing with all the cancellations. I guess if there is someone to be mad it, it's HBO b/c they are 2 greedy for their own good most of the time. The should focus on paying for the fights that most people want to see. I appreciate ur insight

                    Theoretically but we will never know because he wouldn't fight him. He beat Virgil Hill after he lost to Dariuz. Dariuz always had a punchers chance. While I don't think he would win it is a point that should be taken. He wouldn't fight him over a 23 straight defenses of the WBO. As well as the fact that Dariuz took the WBA for a while. I don't think he Dariuz would have won but I didn't think Tarver would have either.

                    Comparing that 168 pound tub of lard Toney who was ridiculously weight drained is a very poor example. Using Ruiz as an example of winning only deletes your credibility my friend. Worst champ ever.

                      ur correct as well, we don't need Cunningham becoming like Roach lol, I think he's trying to play good cop bad cop. They don't need Alexander sounding like an arrogant prick so u let the trainer do all the smack talking. Its funny at first but then it gets old but like Roach said his job is to make his fighter the most money first and Bradley deserves to be compensated. That Lamont Peterson fight was 4-real, and the kid went to England to whip Junior Witter
