Comments Thread For: Bradley vs Alexander: Winner Wants Pacquiao Shot

Why don't these guys get it in their heads? Manny is not going
to fight anyone other than Top Rank fighters. It's too late in
Manny's career to be fighting live wires. I would just focus on
making my own career and legacy. Pac has so many others
gunning for him and as we have witnessed in the past already
with Cotto and Mosley. Top Rank will always get first dibs.

Pac will fight outside Top Rank some day. Arum has to accept that but it won't be for the peanuts that a fight with one of these guys will bring, unless they fight Khan and Maidana.

Also with Judah, Mabuza and Ortiz in the mix theres a lot of revenue that can be raised through unifying the belts and cleaning up the division. Expect the loser of the Khan Maidana fight to chase the IBF belt.

140 is certainly not about Bob Arum and there is no fight with Pac on the horizon until all titles are unified.

Earlier this week BoxingScene.com's Michael Marley ran a story in which Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum said that the winner between Tim Bradley-Devon Alexander, among others, will be in the sweepstakes to fight Manny Pacquiao in May of next year. Bradley-Alexander takes place on January 29.

I dont get the obsession with that little man from the Philipines.It's not like they get paid aburd amounts of money to fight Pacquiao.Margarito is only getting $3m to fight Manny yet he stood to make $8m to fight Mayweather and Mayweather wasnt even the star he is now.
You fight Mayweather and your kids change the schools they go to

Call me Crazy but i rather see the winner of Bradley/Alexander vs Pacquiao than him fighting margarito

[bojangles1987]

Well in that case the winner can keep dreaming. He aint fighting either one.

The Bradley-Alexander winner needs to step up vs the Khan/Maidana winner. Period.

Co-sign. We want a champ at 140, not another opponent for Pacquiao.

[Al_Jones718]

people wana see a unified champ at 140.. so basically everybody wants to see the "unofficial" tournament play out.. besides, spite what anybody thinks, mayweather is the next fight. too too much money to be made.. neither floyd or his uncle will do any time in jail.. they just gona be payin out the wazoo for their freedom.. u.s. court system is all about money.. remember oj,, that case involved 2 dead bodies and he got off.. all we got with the mayweathers are to complaining females.. but being all the legal fees and fines,, they gona want that 50 million dollar pay day. on top of the fact that both parties publicly agreed to all terms. if by chance it wasnt mayweather which i truly believe it will be, mosley is gona be the opponent, with his name they will get huge ppv numbers.. i wouldnt mind seeing berto but im sure it will be mosley.. arum and golden boy see dollars in their future not marquee matchups

I was kind of surprised about the amount too considering it's
Manny Pacquiao that Margarito is fighting. Cotto made 12Mil.
But I guess Margarito should be happy that he is fighting at
all.

Yeah, they will earn more with a floyd fight, if and only if floyd accepts the challenge... Margarito tried it once with floyd, but floyd went on retirement, so now what made you think that floyd won't do the same to this young risky prospects... Atleast with Manny the fight is getting made to reality...

I agree for the most part,but what do U mean by step up to the Khan-Maidana winner,after all,Bradley & Devon are higher ranked at 140 & have beaten by far the better fighters!!I think it's more like the winner of Alexander-Bradley needs to accept the challenge of the winner of Khan-Maidana!!

If I am not mistaken Khan is ranked higher than Alexander right now. And, I think rightfully so.

I also think Khan is the better fighter of Alexander. However, H2H match up style wise Alexander could beat him.

I think Khan win over Kotelnik is better than Alexander win over Urango. And, IMO Devon clearly lost to Kotelnik.

But, it doesn't matter cuz Bradley is the man of the division and I don't see any JWW right now beating him.

No he didn't, what are you talking about.

It was Floyd who was getting the career high payday at the time of 8mil. Not Margarito.

And, then you act like a fight with Pac their kids won't be able to change the schools they go to.

Ridiculous.
