    If HBO approved Paul what the hell his name was to fight Khan,why would they not approve a fight with a lesser opponent while Khan tries to unify with Judah??

          I doubt he was the brainchild negotiating the deal that guaranteed him a fight at 1+ mil$ion post Alexander/Bradley. It's pretty easy to run the ship when you have those type of options generated for you by your team. I'm not saying the guy is not bright as I don't know him but I wouldn't be so quick to give him credit for things his management team are overwhelmingly responsible for...

          Along with the boxing skills he does have, he's had a good business team beneath him as does Berto. Mayweather is a different animal altogether proven over time
          I can agree with(Mayweather being a different animal)you,Berto had a dumb team to an extent because they was protecting him far to much and both times his level stepped up it showed he was not use to being in tough..Bradley has grind his way from the bottom taking on top opponents on his way to the top,this is a big reason I don't mind him taking a soft touch while handling his business with Shaw he has earned it..

            I'm sure he will give his opinion soon enough..I'm pretty sure like most he will be disappointed but will understand the business side of the matter..

              Honestly I like this move by Bradley. Can't say I won't be disappointed if the Khan fight doesn't happen but why not get paid to take on Khan. I think most will agree that Khan is a step up from Devon. Is Bradley supposed to take the same money he did for Devon when the risk goes up for a fight with Khan? That would be just plain ******. I'm looking at Shaw in this one. Dude does a horrible job promoting his fighters, and you can tell he's just running his mouth now cause he knows Bradley wants out with his company. Take them to the cleaners Bradley. If any JWW deserves more money i'd give it to Bradley, his resume speaks for itself.

                True not to mention Khan is making 1.25 mill all because of who he is promoted by..How much was Khan expected to get for that wack Mc who ever fight??Bradley should get some just due as well..

                  Smart, because the business relationship between him and Shaw is irreparable it seems. The Alexander fight almost blew up because of Bradley wanting to leave Shaw, so if Bradley doesn't take the fight against Khan for the same reason he almost didn't fight Alexander, I understand why and don't blame him.

                      So now we know Bradley's feeling on not taking the fight with Khan..For those who don't,it's because he feels he can make the same amount fighting a lesser opponent(and also getting rid of Shaw in the process)..

                      When I first read about this I was very disappointed,but the more I thought about it the more impressed I became by Bradley's business mind..I also thought about how dumb HBO was of course..But really about Bradley bizzness acumen,he did something very similar with Alexander..Showtime was offering Bradley(I believe)500k to fight Devon who would have made about 300k..Had he took the fight then and not let it build neither would have made their career highest Payday..They also would not be in the position they are in now..Devon fighting for 1.2 or something mill against Matts,and Bradley can make the same against a lesser opponent then Khan..

                      Why not??Khan is not unified,he has not gone the same road as Bradley either..Most of Khan's fights were high end,he really never has taken lesser money to fight big risk opponents..Bradley has..Bradley's last fight was against a unified Champ and no matter how ya slice it Maidana was not a Champion neither was Paul who'sa face..Bradley deserves to take a lay down fight for big money..While he does this Khan can face a Judah for Judah IBF belt..

                      By that time Bradley contract will be over with Shaw and Bradley will be the hottest free agent on the market..Bradley with a Major Promotion team behind him and his winning way's equal big money..If Khan beats Judah big money fight for either of umm where they can get about 2 to 3 mill piece..If Judah win's same deal Judah is still a name and alway makes for exciting fights..What Bradley just did was a power move tbh,very smart imo..

                      What's ya thoughts??


                      I think Bradley knows what he is doing. It doesn't really matter anyways, he will sign the contract, fight Khan, beat him and then he will be on to the next opponent.
