Comments Thread For: Arum: Bradley Too Tough For Khan, HBO Mistakes

[LeadUppercut]

Manny Pacquiao fight shotcaller Bob Arum took a long look at Tim Bradley as the Californian retained his undefeated status against previously unbeaten Devon Alexander and liked what he saw with one glaring exception.

Well, I always value entering into a healthy debate with good ol' uncle Bob.

So.....

*** off Arum you arsewipe.

[clubpunch]

If Manny wanted to do the tests, then why did the fight not happen?
Being honest by saying "Ok, Manny did decline the tests at first" is not bashing Manny, it's just telling the truth.

And on the negotiations thing... Talking and negotiating are 2 separate things.
You can call and talk to me every day, but if you don't meet my terms then you're just talking.

Talks happened yes, but as far as negotiations? I doubt that seriously.
Floyds terms were made clear after the Mosley fight, you can't just ignore that you heard him say (No test, no fight)... 0 days cut offs... Not 7, not 14 but 0.

It is what it is man, however you spin it the fight failed cause Manny declined to do the tests according to WADA/USADA standards.
No cut off, no windows, even if your last test was 18 19 days ago, you're still open to testing till fight night.
Floyd/mosley had no cut offs, the last test was 18 days, but both were still able to be tested.
So I wish people would stop calling that a "Cutoff".. Both guys were still open to be tested.

And why on earth would a clean fighter need to know when testing would stop?
I still can't figure out how that shyt slipped by unnoticed.

Truth! most fans dont use common sence like this. good stuff

I would prob favour Khan over Bradley at this point.....and Pac would murder Bradley....i think you need to be able to hurt Pac to discourage him.

You think? lol

[dyu]

Khans feather fists wont keep Bradley or his head from pressuring him. Bradley catches Khan and beats him (easily IMO).

Pac vs Bradley would be a hell of a fight though. Two fighters that are willing to go toe to toe and since Bradley is not a technical fighter Pac/Arum would welcome the fight.

Lol. Now bradley isn't technical anymore.

[ThePrince]

Lol. Now bradley isn't technical anymore.

Just you wait. If Pacquiao-Bradley is made, somehow the slick Black fighter who had the style to beat Manny last week will somehow magically transform into a shot, old, slow, come forward Mexican plodder with no skill.

Happened with the Puerto Rican boxer/puncher Cotto and the Black defensive counter-puncher Clottey, they suddenly became slow Mexican brawlers when they signed on the dotted line. Manny's new nickname should be 'La Migra', and he's always on the patrol... Senor Mayweather, cuidado

GARY SHAW,, Let me Remind YOU.... GAYWEATHER Jr. Fights " IN-HOUSE Fighters " like,,, his Last Four (4) opponents --> RICKY HATTON, OSCAR Dela HOYA,,, Juan Manuel MARQUEZ,,, SHANE MOSLEY.

[chiguy91]

damn, if bradley signs with TR, he wont get a fight with khan, just a big payday/ass whoopin by pacman. let him fight khan first and then sign with them, when khan beats him, he'll become another contender at WW. either way, fight pacquiao or khan, he'll lose that 0...

[WYNO]

Pacquiao will murk bradley.....floyd vs bradley get the sleeping bags cuz we all going to sleep

[Espada]

Biggest hype and biggest fight are match with 20,000 people watching and getting more than 500k buys.

You have 2 UFC prime fighters fighting each other on a sold out crowd getting 1 million buys and you call it super fight not Pak Shet fight like bradley Alexander on Free TV with a boring ass fight with very few people watching and most of them were free tickets.

Arum is making the sport alive.

Look at the prospects of GBP and SHaw, they aren't even a draw and stars yet and they are already shot.

You have Arum putting his fighters at the right time where they will be able to draw a lot of people and that's making the sport alive.

[Motofan]

As usual, **** you Bob. As far as Khan vs Timmy goes, its a pick em fight.
