I see Bradley as having a under-rated chance at getting a Floyd fight.

    You're probably right, with a possible match up against Mathew Hatton in Wimbley stadium....

      Not among Pac fans, but that's a given. The "Mayweather fallout" isn't nearly as bad as one might think, and Dan Rafael, who isn't a "*****", wasn't quite buying Bob Arum's early blame only Floyd stories. Perhaps he doesn't seem to think that Bob's was too sad about getting another all Top Rank affair on PPV. If Floyd fights Bradley, it might well be perceived in a better light than Pac's continuing fights with Top Rank company men.

        Anything else not likely IMO.

        He is the new Oscar taking the Oscar date.

            Just got caught up in the moment.
            LOL, I wasn't trying to say anything about your post per say just that it is unlikely to see him (Mayweather) fight soon given the current situation......Bradley could shock anyone but it is unlikely he would get a shot against either of those two. Bradley is still one of my favorite boxers regardless, the dude has heart, skills, and a no quit attitude

              You could be right in the end. I just don't know if Floyd would want to take a whole year off. But the thing about Floyd is he's no longer a real boxer. He's a businessman, who just happens to know how to box, like Oscar was towards the end, so he pull that. And Floyd vs Matthew Hatton wouldn't be financially supported by anyone, so that wouldn't happen even if he wanted it too.

                I complete agree. I also remember him saying he's only fighting once a year, so that makes perfect sense.

                As for Mayweather-Bradley, Bradley will need to get built up a little more and become a household name. All of Floyd's opponents have been either big names such as DLH and Hatton or fighters with a lot of hype like Baldomir. If anything, he has a better shot against Pac.

                  This without a doubt.

                  None of the big boys are touching Bradley. He makes **** all money and is hungry as hell to win. He's far too good for the money he would bring in.
