Comments Thread For: Shaw Blasts Arum Over Pacquiao-Bradley Comments

[THE REED]

Are people on here actually saying Clottey is a tougher test than Tim Bradley.

Not only that, but more deserving.

I am not saying Bradley is deserving of a Pac fight... but in comparison to Clottey?

Clottey just lost to Cotto... who got destroyed by Pac.

Now he fights Pac?


Again.. it's not even Pacs fault, that is all Arum.

In fairness 2 Clottey, he has held his own vs Cotto and Margarito in the past. That's better then anything Bradley has done in his life.

So "holding your own" with top fighters is better than actually beating them? That's ******.

[Calilloyd]

Yeah because the 1000 fans that turned up for his match with nate campbell just screams money money money.

Pacquiao will make money no matter who he fights. People would pay to see him fight Bradley. That's a poor excuse.

Arum

Bob Arum thinks we're all punchy. We know those are his fighters and he wont be fighting anyone elses fighters, unless he can make big money. Floyd Mayweather's popularity has really thrown a monkey wrench into his greedy plans though. Mayweather needs to stick to his random ped testing and a 60/40 split.

[Calilloyd]

Both make some good points. Bradley really isnt known outside the diehards, and Arum does only seem interested in pitting his fighters against one another to keep all the money in house.

Neither was Clottey. So no, that's not a good point. Arum want's a monopoly with every fight. He doesn't care about the fights that should happen. And that's the real issue.

What's good cali...

It's not an excuse it's a valid point and to top it off Bradley hasn't fought any world class opposition yet and he's ready for the #1 fighter in the world? Get the *** outta here!

[Calilloyd]

pacquiao been fighting opponents that people say got a chance to beat him and he is even the underdog..

and one more thing atleast its not pacquiao fault if u say his cherry picking its his promoter.. while mayweather is its his fault for cherry picking coz he is his own promoter lol

When was the last time Pacaquiao was an underdog? Against Cotto? Nope. Clottey? No. Hatton No..............

I understand Pac is boxing savior but come on. The point you make is valid Clottey just lost to the guy Pac ****d.

Bradley is undefeated at the same weight class Pac holds a ring title in.

Roach allegedly says that they stuffed Pac full of food to make weight so according to them he couldve fought at 140.

Neither one of them have fan bases. But Bradley did have two belts at 140 at the time, before he vacated one of them.

Bradley is a better fighter than Clottey on every level.

I dont see how Clottey deserved the fight when he just lost to a one eyed Cotto.

Bradleys record isn't that bad? For how old he is and how many pro fights he has had? Junior Witter, Edner Cherry, Nate Campbell, Lamont Peterson, Kendall Holt.

None of those guys are remotley close to world class and Edner Cherry wow! I wouldn't of mentioned that guy because that just made your point even weaker.
