Concerning Bradley's moves from here on

[BoxerDood]

I've been hearing a lot of people saying he's ducking Alexander. I can understand anyone who doesn't know the story to think that, but its just not true. Now I'm not gonna lie, I am a good friend of Bradley and he is my favorite fighter, but I don't take sides either (notice how Haye is no longer on my top 5).

So why, exactly isn't Alexander-Bradley happening? Who knows. But who should you be asking that question? Not Bradley. Not Alexander. Not even Shaw. But Team Alexander. Immediately after Alexander-Urango, Bradley made it clear that he is willing to fight Alexander. His exact words were "Let's do it". Somebody please explain to me what Team Alexander has done to make this fight possible? You can't negotiate a fight in interviews. That's not how business works. It takes promoters. And I know for sure that Gary Shaw hasn't even been reached out to by Alexander's team. So how does he expect a fight to happen, when Bradley has his own June date that he's had since the beginning of the year and Alexander grabbed that August date a month or two ago without any intended fights? Bradley could have easily dropped the June 19th date and fought Alexander in August, but nobody's phone was ringing. Certainly not Shaw's. Again, you cannot negotiate fights by talking junk in interviews. What does that accomplish? You guys are acting like they really tried to make the fight and presented a reasonable offer, and Bradley declined. If that were the case then it would be ducking for sure.

Now please, answer my questions Don't just say "he's ducking". Actually read this post and answer the questions in the post. I'll be happy to answer anything too.

All this is fine and dandy.......

BUT.

The fact remains that Bradley is fighting an unknown WW when a guy in his weight class with two straps (one that was Bradleys) is calling him out.

Thats just unacceptable.

I agree, I don't think Bradley is ducking Alexander. I also don't mind the fight getting build up anymore.

Also a lot of people get this thing that once you call out somebody out on public and the fight does not happen then the other guy is ducking. But, if nobody has contacted team Bradley then really there has not been a call out.

It reminds me of how Aaron Pryor interrupted Leonard press conference call him out in his face. And, everybody who saw that on Legendary Nights. Think that Leonard ducked. But, when business behind close doors happened. It was Pryor who turned down the fight.

It seems like Bradley's team doesn't want an Alexander fight either, at least for now.


GL: Everybody who reads ********** knows that you're willing to fight the best as long as the money is right. Can you give us a ballpark figure on what your opinion of right is for such fights?

TB: "It just to be right. I'm not going to give you a ballpark number on what is has to be, because then I'm selling myself short. It just has to be right across the board and it has to make sense for everybody on our team. This boxing game, I fought for pride at the beginning , but after I learned and with how the way the game is now, it's about money, feeding my family and I'm on top now so I need to get my just due. People need to understand that I'm not afraid of anybody. I want to fight Devon. You don't know how I'm constantly calling my manager and promoter telling them about how much I want to fight this kid. They're just telling me to be patient and it will come in due time. When I think about it, they are right. It will happen in due time and when it does, it will be a mega fight. All we have to do is keep winning and fans will be screaming for this fight."

I really wish I knew exactly why nothing's being done from here. But I do know that both fighters want to get in the ring. HBO's probably not going to make any offers because they have Khan to ride on now, so if anything we're more likely to see Bradley-Khan.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it was all this guy's fault. I mean when isn't it his fault? lol

hahahah King is a ****.

Bradley-Khan might happen because Bradley doesnt have that pop that Oriz and Maidana have. Although I think Bradley will stop Khan.
