Told that if the camps of TBradley and DAlexander don't get moving, HBO might pull their offer off the table later this week.

I hope so. $1.1 million is more than enough money. Maybe these guys will straighten up, but I doubt it.

I'm still a Bradley fan, but this fight is taking way too long to get made and I'm getting pretty annoyed with both them.

Guys get the biggest payday in there career,And there still not happy?
Good for hbo telling them go fck themselves.

Just another example of a couple fighters that are a bunch of *******. Have some balls and take the fight. If you truly are a great fighter, you will win and in return you will get huge paydays. Sometimes I wish this site didn't exist because it's hard to respect any boxer now a days.

I think HBO is bluffing, other than the Super Fight, this is the only other big fight they have

Why is this a big fight, I'm still missing that I guess. Except for like the hardcore no one even knows who these guys are. Cotto/JCC Jr is the bigger fight in terms of ratings, thus HBO is going to give that fight more money. That's just how it works, if these guys were actually promoted correctly (as Khan was) they'd be making more money. Too bad for these guys that they'll need to beat each other in order to MAYBE start getting Khan money. They should both shut their mouths, lace up and instead of "saying" they are worth more go out and prove it. If HBO pulls the fight they won't get near the payday and may not even appear on HBO because of it.

As for bigger fights... Cotto/Marg II, Williams/Martinez II, Pac/anyone (way more people will watch) Floyd/anyone (same reason) and this is just off the top of my head. I'd even be willing to say Juanma/Gamboa would do better ratings than this fight. Just because you "may be" the best doesn't mean you earn the most.

HBO is bluffing

[Hard Boiled]

BoxingScene.com was advised by a reliable source that promoter Gary Shaw made an offer of $1.1 million to WBO junior welterweight champion Timothy Bradley for a unification showdown with WBC/IBF champion Devon Alexander. HBO has reserved the date of January 29 for the possible fight. To date, Shaw has not received a response to that offer from the Bradley camp. [Click Here To Read More]

Why should Bradley/Alexander earn as much as Khan when they are not as big a draw? I mean Khan will be on HBO PPV before either Bradley or Alexander because he has an international fanbase.

Bradley/Alexander cant fill out arenas in thier own hometowns.
