Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: I've Signed My Part, Bradley Making Excuses

[Rome-By-Ko]

No i think hes worried about getting his ass handed to him by Khan. His refusal to take the fight backs that up.

Oh yea and Bradley's far better resume makes me know that ya post is a fail..LMAO you guy's,can't ya come up with something better??So do you believe Bradley would have fought three undefeated fighters but now is scared to fight someone who was KO'd in a rd in mere mins??Use ya brain,and dude I respect ya as a poster but this is very questionable..

Can you name me a good undefeated fighter that Khan beat to get to where he is at now??

[QUOTE=romebyko;10493435]

Dude someone like Bradley??What's that suppose to mean??So you are saying the top fighter(Bradley)should be happy to get whatever scraps fall from the table??While the challenger(Khan,and make no mistake he is the challenger)get to set at the table with the big boys and chow down??Is that how you believe it to work??Fact is Bradley has what Khan wants/needs,and HBO is in bed with Khan so it's also what they want..I'm pretty sure HBO wants no part of Shaw which is why they are waiting for Bradley's contract to be up..Then will be up to Timmy and his team to chose where they o from there..This fight is on hold,and if anything(imo)Khan should go fight Judah and unify Bradley's done it twice now..Why can't Khan take some risk??Bradley can fight Maidana and the winners fight each other..Ya dig??

See signing Bradley to a two or three fight deal is a win for HBO no matter how ya slice it dude..Jr WW is a hot Div and most fighters are signed to GBP(which is in bed hard with HBO)having Bradley only means big fights for the future..

I have been reading your post and there seems to be so many problems with your argument.
First of all I would not consider and neither should Bradley by the way 1.3 Million dollars scrap. This would be Bradley's biggest purse to date.

Second if this is about money then Bradleys management team need to remind him about his drawing power and how even in his hometown Bradley could not put fans into seats.

Third, there is a reason HBO is not going to give him a multi fight contract. They see the numbers and they are aware of his drawing power. They gave him a two fight contract and that was because they were trying to make an unofficial jrWW tourny. They were expecting to lock the winner of Bradley/Alexander against Khan/Maidana, or at least a rematch between Bradley/Alexander.

Finally you mention Floyd Mayweather and how he was like Bradley at this point in his career and had no fan base, but at least he was smart enough to answer the call when the opportunity came for him to fight a major name.
He took a 70/30 split to fight ODLH. Then he build on that and fought another major name in Ricky Hatton. Bradley has a name opponent in front of him, go out beat him and take his glory.

I hope we get the skinny from Team Bradley about why he's not signing up to fight Khan. Khan can play it any way he wants but my gut sez no way I see Tim being scared. I'm guessing it's all business.

smart post.....

[LeadUppercut]

SMH at ******ity, you can't argue with fan boys, no sense of logic when you speak to them about their favorite fighter. Its apparent this is about money with Bradley and not being afraid of Khan, which I don't understand how anyone could come to that conclusion. once again Khan is a draw in the UK, not here, that's a fact. Khan ia guaranteed 1.25 mill, that does not mean that is all he is making. there is no logic to calling Bradley a ducker, just an opinion with no backing. as for the Mayweather part, he was like Tim, not a big draw but one of the top fighters out there at the time. Bradley is a coward, yet Khan fought some nobody like a coward and looked like ****. Bradley is a coward, yet Khan has Morales on his radar.

A real smart post.....

[LeadUppercut]

Seriously, there a very few actual " cowards " that box professionally.

According to a number of " experts " on this site, there are more "cowards" involved with boxing, than with all of the other sports put together

" coward " is the most inaccurately overused word on this site

" running ", is second.

Why would somebody go to so much trouble to proudly display their ignorance?

I thought you said you were following my post??So why are you so confused??

1.1.3 is not a bad Payday,but when the guy you just dominate is making only a 100k less then you for fighting a guy way down the ladder then it makes you see things in a different light..Would'int you say??

2.You(and many others)seem to keep wanting to talk about Bradley's drawing power..But this is meaning less when you talk of future fights and having great fighters on HBO's roster..Look at Berto for example(or even Ortiz)both HBO banked on and gave multi fight deals..Berto is no Draw,but he was young and a top fighter at WW..Bradley wants what he wants,you and I don't feed his family or pay his bills..So if he would rather be smart before the biggest fight of his life instead of fearless I can't be mad at him,hell he has been fearless for how many fights already??See unlike some(not saying you)I've followed Bradley's career(and Khan's)and can tell you right now Bradley has taken far more risk then Khan,he has earned the right to get his business in order imo..

May answered the call because at that point Hoya was the biggest name in the sport buddy,Khan is no Hoya at this point in his career..So that point was weak and I really don't know how to answer it..

Sorry I missed another question/statement that ya mentioned..

The 140lb tourny ya mentioned was a cool idea until others started taking fights..Was Khan's fight against Paul part of the so called tourny??I did not think so,it was so Khan could make his pockets a lil fatter..Listen what's good for the goose is good for the gander..This is business and Bradley would be a fool not to realize what he is worth esp to Khan at this point of his career..I don't knock anyone for knowing their worth esp someone who has put work in..Ya dig??

LAS VEGAS -- WBA junior welterweight king, Amir Khan, told BoxingScene.com that he is ready to move on and to face another rival on July 23 if WBO and WBC counter part, Tim Bradley, does not materialize as his next opponent.

We have heard absolutely nothing from Timmy. He is usually pretty vocal. I wont say anything bad about him until I get a chance to hear what he says. Amir can be a shrewd guy to deal with. For all we know it could be an absolute **** offer.

Bradley needs to stop playing games! lol

[DET. IRONSIDE]

Right now it would be better for Bradley Khan to happen later.

Khan SHOULD fight Judah but Guerrero would be a good second choice, Morales should be left alone right now.

That would leave Gary Shaw to take in Bradley vs Maidana.

Bradley could then sign to GBP and fight Khan Judah winner and the winner of that could face Berto then Ortiz OR he could sign Top Rank and just get a Pacman fight and bum around for a while.
