I don't think it has to absolutely happen in April since HBO has a specific date of July on hold for the fight. But yeah, say what you want about who you think will win the fight or whatever, but it's definitely gonna be Khan's fault if the fight doesn't happen. HBO might have overpaid Bradley based on what the fight with Alexander drew in #s, but with the way Bradley is expressing himself of wanting to fight Khan under any circumstances goes to show you he won't be hard to deal with in the negotiations more than likely. And Bradley whips that boy's ass since he leaves his chin in the air all the time and has no defense.Comment

Khan will duck Bradley with the "he wants too much cash" excuse, I can guarantee it.
The only reason he fought Maidana was because it was his mandatory and he would have been stripped of his title had he not done so.
Even after signing the Maidana fight he made more than a couple press releases crying about how Maidana was being overpaid for the fight and how he had to take a pay cut to make it happen.
He sure as hell isn't gonna do anything but ask for ridiculous money to get in the ring with Bradley, my guess is he will think he is entitled to a70-30 split just like if he was fighting Paul McCloskey.Comment

Bradley doesn't seem to be a power puncher so I think Khan would have a decent chance against him. He's a good fighter overall but what Khan lacks in chin, Bradley lacks in power. Also, Khan has made it clear since the Maidana fight that he wants one fight in the UK before returning to the States. That was his plan all along, to have a money fight back home and the Brad-Dev winner in the summer in the US.I don't think it has to absolutely happen in April since HBO has a specific date of July on hold for the fight.

I have to say I see a lot of elite things about Bradley and I think they are very quiet things because he not a flashy boxer I think people down play him..IMHO Bradley is very experienced and has beatin a bunch of styles..Devon was not special and did not dare to be great so it took away from Bradley..Bradley took all the risk and anything that was exciting Bradley was the cause of it..Bradley has proved to be elite all ready,now its time to fight other elite fighters and win this is were Khan JMM come in,Berto and Judah are not elite imo..Exactly! Bradley needs to build up his stock,fanbase,and ring experience. Take on guys like Judah,Khan,Berto and even Marquez is a much better route before taking on guys like Floyd and Manny. Cong**** on his win but I did'NT see anything special with Bradley on saturday...he needs to simmer a bit more before promoting him as an elite.Comment

my 100 mill to your 10 mill this fight will happen on July 30th unless Bradley signs to fight someone else.Khan will duck Bradley with the "he wants too much cash" excuse, I can guarantee it.

I know its all pencilled in and lined up. I dunno what the speculation is about, only speculation is who is Khan's opponent in April really.
Unless you want to talk about who is signing up Bradley. I'm guessing he willl try and stay a free agent for the Khan fight and then sign with Top Rank.Comment

Khan will fight Berto next summer. In fact naw I think Khan and Bradley will fight Berto some time next year.I have to say I see a lot of elite things about Bradley and I think they are very quiet things because he not a flashy boxer I think people down play him..IMHO Bradley is very experienced and has beatin a bunch of styles..Devon was not special and did not dare to be great so it took away from Bradley..Bradley took all the risk and anything that was exciting Bradley was the cause of it..Bradley has proved to be elite all ready,now its time to fight other elite fighters and win this is were Khan JMM come in,Berto and Judah are not elite imo..
Also in a few years I see Khan leaving Freddie for Steward and taking on Pacquiao for a payday.Last edited by DET. IRONSIDE; 02-02-2011, 01:20 PM.Comment
