    Good info, thank you

      Bradley's belts won't add hardly anything to the sales. If Khan hadn't been thrown off Sky less than 2 weeks before the fight because of the collapsed undercard he would have obviously sold a great deal more on Sky against McCloskey. The fact he was able to achieve nearly 100k buys on a tiny unknown channel which only got the rights to air the fight about 1 week before the fight says a lot for how much of a draw he is.

      Bradley can't even sell in his own hometown so to think that he somehow will immensely impact the sales is just downright delusional. If those issues hadn't come up and Sky had gone through with Khan - McCloskey it would have sold nearly as much as Khan - Bradley would potentially hit.

        Why do people think he doesn't draw?

        He's a swarmer like Calzhage was. Some of Cal's fights were stinkers, but he always had a large following. (I like Clazhage FWIW, but am not a "hugger" of any fighter.)

        So if Bradley is undefeated, why doesn't he have a bigger draw?

          He made under $1.1 Mil against Alexander, which was his highest payday. Khan's offering him roughly 25% MORE than his last fight against Alexander but Bradley still chickened out like a b!tch.

            Bradley holding 2 belts will significantly increase sales, if you think they won't you are a moron.

                So he's getting offered just a little bit over 200k to fight against not only someone who's a bigger threat but also a bigger draw?

                Yea I don't blame Bradley nor do I blame Khan. I blame HBO.

                  Khan will make his biggest payday fighting Bradley. Khan is being a greedy ****, when was the last time khan had a fight and there was nobody complaining about money?

                    Bradley isn't complaining about the money you moron.. Bradley is using the excuse that his HBO 2-fight contract (1st fight being Alexander) means he could make $1.2 Mil by just fighting an easier opponent, instead of fighting Khan for a $1.4 Mil..

                    Jeez, don't expect me to fill you in on the details, go do some research and then come back when you get a clue. Bradley's team has effectively said that they want an "Easier" opponent for less money.. So they basically admitted to Ducking the Khan fight even though he offers them the biggest payday.

                      Of course it's about the money you moron, why fight a bigger threat and draw for 200k extra. Khan would be making more than double Bradley who is the #1 and unified champ. Khan needs to up the offer and give the man what he deserves.
