    Devon packs stadiums, Bradley only drew like 1-2K in hsi last fight.

      Abregu is fighting as an opponent on HBO, not as a showcase fighter. No need to warp the details, bro. Devon is a straight up network fighter who brings in more money than Abregu. Bradley wants Pac/May? Fight a network fighter, make an impression, build your fan base. Abregu will do none of that.

          But Devon next opponent will?Sounds like there is a double standard here.Bottomline Bradley is fighting the more dangerous opponent his next fight.I take nothing away from Devon but are you really trying to bad mouth Bradley?Bradley's resume is better then Devon and Bradley is still taking risk fight a natural WW.Abregu fought on Showtime just as many times as Devon those are facts.Yea Devon had one fight on HBO that does not mean much becuase Abregu will have his next fight on HBO.Let me ask you have you ever seen Abregu fight?

            Dude you missing the point. Alexander WANTED Bradley.

            So now Alexander is stuck with a scrub.

            Abregu is a nobody at WW.

            Devon has 2 belts at 140.

            This is a dumb fight.

              to show he can fight at 147... Other then that it's a pretty pointless fight, i was saying they should build the Bradley-Alexander fight but *** it they should just fight now like Khan suggested (the tourney)

                You and I both know if the Money was there Bradley would be on board for this fight.There is nothing in Bradley career to make me think he would duck or does not want to fight Devon.It's all business and Bradley is trying to be smart on the business side of things.A fight with Devon when both fighters are a bit more known would be big(More Money)and so would the pot.Bradley fight a WW is smart it opens up doors for him with some decent fighters and show's he is willing to take risk.Oh and I would be more then happy if the fight ever goes off to bet you on these too fights.Devon Bradley I got Bradley,and Berto Abregu since you feel he is a nobody.He is a up an comer trying to make a name for himself like any other fighter which makes him very dangerous.

                  Bradley is fighting at 147 to show case his skills at the weight and hopes the likes of Pacquiao and Mayweather take notice.

                  I personally think it's a ****** idea, and thats as a fan of Bradley.

                    Well, neither will fight him since he doesn't bring or do jack squat for them. Also if they did, they would both destroy him, Pacqiao and mayweher as of now are on another level.

                      Thats exactly why i think it's a ****** idea.

                      Bradley can't beat them as of now, so Bradley should be focused on another things like his division where their are plenty of challenges.
