Comments Thread For: Khan-Bradley Could Have Big Hurdles Over The Money

[Earl-Hickey]

Bradley is going to duck khan, i'm telling you he KNOWS he cant win, now he's *****ing about this and that.

This is THE fight at 140, you win this fight, you go on to make the mega bucks.

Bradley don't want none of Amir.

Bradley wouldn't have sat out a full 6 months in the first half of 2010 if Maidana didn't first postpone a fight then completely pull out later. They were scheduled to fight twice and Maidana for whatever reason first has a postponement (either a bad back or he missed his flight) then when rescheduled, later pulled out. So, HBO and Bradley scrambled to find an opponent and ended up with Luis Carlos Abregu because that was the only opponent available that HBO would accept. If he would have fought in June like originally agreed upon, he could've fought in Sept before going in against Alexander. But after Abrego, it was in Timothy's best interest to wait and get Devon in January...

Also, I don't disagree with Bradley being upset that he will be getting the same purse as a guy he just beat for fighting a much tougher opponent. Khan is more popular that Matthysse because so many people either love him or hate him and will watch in hoping to see him win or lose. And I believe Bradley vs Khan will get HBO much bigger viewership numbers than Devon vs Lucas. Plus, if take into account that Khan just got screwed out of most his purse for the April 16th fight, he will want to get paid extremely well to fight Bradley. I have a bad feeling that the Khan vs. Bradley fight won't happen, at least in July...

Great post bro..

I think the fight will happen,if the money is right..I mean a 50/50 deal has to be made imo it's only right based on everything about these fighters..

IMO Bradley has a better resume and has unified the div twice and is ranked num 1 at Jr WW..

Khan has a belt 2end best resume ranked num 2 and is the draw for this fight..

This is a case of 50/50 if I ever so one,if HBO puts up the right amount and both fighters agree to the 50/50 split(which they should)we have are self's a fight..

Is Bradley looking for excuses not to fight Khan? It seems he's the one putting up the barriers here.

you think wanting to be compensated is a barrier?

because khan puts more butts in the ppv seat, i do think he should get a bigger cut of the purse.

You should know by now ya can't read to much into these threads on BS..Wait a while and the truth will come out,but jumping the gun and saying dumb **** like Bradley don't want none of Khan while Bradley's been calling Khan out for how long??Just sounds dumb..Khan could have been getting geared up to fight Bradley instead of Paul right now if that's the way ya wanna play it..I believe both wanna fight each other,this is just hear say because we all should know money has not been discussed yet..

Without Bradley Khan does not get the same recognition,Bradley my not be the same ticket seller but he is the key to the Jr WW Championship..Not a abc belt but the real Championship..The purse should be 50/50,I don't know if this fight goes to PPV tho..

He knows he can string out his career and get a few paydays if he avoids Khan.

Bradley would of outboxed Maidana to win, he Can't outbox OR ko khan and he knows it.
