I don't blame him, myself. He got that for the Alexander fight, and this fight will be WAY BIGGER. Is he supposed to take short money for an undoubtedly tough fight? If he did, and won, that would make him look really smart. But if he takes short money AND loses, it's really going to hurt him the pocketbook. I don't think he's scared at all. He takes tough fights. Just look at his resume. This will be another one, once the money is right.

I agree with this and I am a Khan fan. Bradley is putting a title on the line ,he is not just another opponent looking for a payday. None of us know the ins and outs of the negotiations to make solid judgements. But one thing is clear is Alexander was considered by many to be as good as Khan going into theBradley fight. Bradley did not duck him and if the contract can be sorted I have no doubt Bradley wants the fight.
There seem to be real issues with Gary Shaw complicating the fight further. His contract with Shaw is almost at an end and he is not renewing it. Clearly there are issues there.

fight will happen, Bradley's mama told him not to leave anything on the table

i will be happy for Bradley once he signs with Top Rank

i believe this guy will be the best challenge for someone like Pac other than Floyd.

If Floyd doesnt want the fight by fall of 2012, Bradley is a suitable replacement at 147. A fundamental boxer who can move in the ring, not a friggin zombie, decent power, and overall some semblance of a complete package (albeit nothing standing out).

Arum would need some time hyping this guy up as his old promoter obviously didnt do jack squat.

but first things first, he should really fight Khan and beat him.
