    Bradley is doing the best he can to land a big money fight, this is why he's taking the fight at 147, Golden Boy Promotions are not letting his fighters face him...and it seems Devon is the only fight he only going to get...If Devon is the only option then let the fight build up for the end of the year, but this fight at 147 could open doors for him, for Pac or Mayweather down the road, Collazo, Quintana , would be nice fights for him, then Berto,, smart move on Bradley..

      This type of attitude is ruining boxing. "I gotta feed my kids." Mutherluvver acts like he would make peanuts off that fight. If he was smart, beating a fighter like Alexander could damn near catapult him to forefront. Then he might get that shot at a big money fight against the likes of Pac or Mayweather. Cause if he waits it out, he's gonna have to keep waiting, because the mega stars will be gone.


      On another note-so he's saying Khan should fight Maidana, Alexander and himself? SMH.

        I see where Bradley is coming from. Golden Boy is trying to eliminate one of the threats. Shaefer had trouble even mentioning Bradley's name when asked about future opponents for Ortiz. He said a list of other names then muttered Bradley's. He didn't even mention Alexander's name. Bradley knows what the deal is. Probably becasue Shaw tells him.

As I said from the very start, Bradley wants him and Alexander to clean up the Jr WW division before they face off. Its really easy to see.
          Then wouldn't it make sense to fight in the tourney?

          Even the Super 6 has a potential match up where two finalists would have never faced each other through the tourney.

          Bradley could take out half of the tourney. Alexander takes the other half. The tourney would bring so much recognition to them and then when they both fight for numero uno. It would bring in helluva lot of money.

          I don't understand Bradley's rationale on this one. Fighting Khan later this year in the UK will bring more money than fighting Abregu. He, himself, has never even seen Abregu fight so how known is Abregu?

            I still haven't heard much of this tourney. Is it a 6 man?

              The tournament calls for the best 2 fighters in the division to face off first...

                Bradley is making a name for himself, nothing wrong with that. He will fight Alexander, probably after this fight. Let Alexander fight Peterson or Ortiz in June or July and then Bradley and Alexander can fight in December or January.

                  And Khan doesn't want to fight both of them. He wants them to face each other, then the winner fights him. Khan wants to clean out the division with the help of others eliminating each others, less threats to him.

                    Man,im a big Bradley fan,but wdf is he talking about? How does him fighting Abregu ( who da f is he? ) make the fight with Alexander even more bigger,it doesnt,if anything,if he looks bad in the fight it wont be as big as it is now,and hes talking about having money,well,fighting Abregu and who ever else he fights after him is gona make him peanuts,the fight with Alexander,especially seeing as its part of a HBO tournament will make him the biggest purse of his career!!!! Look at Direll and Ward,they wernt really getting paid before they joint the most riskiest tournament in boxing,now there eating well!

                    If anything,if Bradley comes out on top of this tournament,he will be a big name,HBO will be asking the other big fights if they wanna fight Bradley,that it has to happen,but no,hed rarther not take part in the money making tournamen,he'd rather fight Abregu and who ever else and make peanuts,great way of winning fans,this is something you would hear of the top dogs like Floyd

                      hopefully this leads to a fight with Pac.

                      i'd love to see Bradley get stretchered out in the 1st
