If Bradley is gonna fight Pacquiao in November, why can't he fight Khan in July?

    Bradley is only fighting Pacquiao because he'll get more money. Hes ducking the fight everyone wants at 140lbs.

      If he's fighting a much better opponent you can't class it as a duck. A duck would be choosing a lesser opponent than what is available.

        Who do you think Bradley is going to fight before Pacquiao?

            Pacquiao isn't around much longer. If I was in Bradley shoes, I'd rather fight Pacquiao than Khan. Also, he'll get his biggest payday..

              Your point is? Who did Khan fight in his last fight, it sure as hell wasn't the best available.

                Look at what you consider a 'duck'. So by your own definition, if Bradley does not fight an opponent next that is the level of Khan it would mean he's ducking him. Who is Bradley going to fight at 140 that is better than Khan and that belongs to TR? He wont just fight Pacquaio in november, there needs to be a fight before that.

                    A) Bradley is not going to fight Manny until next year unless either Marquez b*tches out again or Manny decides to fight 2 more times this year (which would be nice, but highly unlikely).

                    B) The fight would've been under contract with Shaw (with an extension most likely) and Bradley has no intention of being anonymous for the rest of his career ala Sergio. If you had a choice of fighting Khan for slightly more than what Devon Alexander in a fight that maybe a million people will see on HBO or fight Pacquiao in a huge event with non stop promotions for at least 5X the money... which would you chose?

                      Smart move by Bradley.

                      Makes him more money, gets him more publicity, and is an even harder fight than Khan.
