    Have Americans Given Bradley A Free Pass?

    First of all im shocked that there has been nothing whatsoever been said by the American posters on this forum about the flagrant ducking and stalling that has been going on by Bradley for not fighting Khan. The plan was always for Khan to fight Bradley if Khan beat Maidana and Bradley beat Alexander which they both did.

    Bradleys apostles will bring up Gary Shaw, Timothy Bradleys problem with Gary Shaw is Timothy Bradleys problem with Gary Shaw I dont see why that should be used as an excuse to duck opponents. Whats all the more tragic is that American posters are normally the first and most ardent people to accuse others of ducking opponents yet are nowhere to be seen or heard when it comes to Bradley.

    Its just another case of an African American fighter ducking an Asian fighter, Im sure we all know the most famous case of an African American boxer who refuses to fight Manny Pacquaio, Mayweather has set a bad precedent for other African American boxers: Just duck opponents that can beat you, build up a padded record, Drop PEDS to stall the fight, Drop rival promoters to stall the fight, Drop money to stall the fight, Then cash out in a big fight like Mosley by turning up to collect a payday and not throwing a punch or causing an upset like a good journeyman.

    The culture of HBO hand outs and dole outs MUST end, What boxing needs is some kind of Performance related pay, You will find these African American boxers that don't throw a punch in a fight and cash out will be fighting like you never seen them before for their daily bread. The more punches they throw and the more punches they take the more money they will earn.

    Americans dont give a **** about Timmy. Sorry for the lack of outrage, but its just the way it is. Do I think less of him for not fighting Khan? Sure. I simply dont believe Tim thinks he can beat Khan.

      He didn't duck Khan and then go fight somebody else, he has legal stuff to overcome before he can fight again. He will fight soon and he will come after Khan at some point and beat him down.

        Of course they have. If this was a British fighter like Froch or Khan blatantly ducking, there would of been a huge shitstorm.

          Bradley has been beating up good fighters and taking their 0's. His resume is already impressive to me. I don't get why everyone says Bradley is ducking, I mean if you look at Bradley's resume it doesn't seem like he does any ducking at all.

                  Over hear. we like to talk about fights and fighters, not what MIGHT happen or SHOULD happen.

                  Our fighters set up fights regular as clockwork and they do mess around with tests or any other shenanigans.

                  Thats true of most of the world, its more likely US blood or contact with american fiht fans makes a fighter into a diva like Mayweather.
