Comments Thread For: Bradley: Forget Khan, I Want Pacquiao and Mayweather

[New England]

Wow...Really Bradley?

I'm very disappointed in Bradley comments and actions...

No way to sugar coat it. He ducked Khan plain and simple.

spot on with another good post, bro.


if bradley fought and beat khan he'd be in a much better position to leverage for a fight with mayweather or pacquiao
he's not a draw as it is.

if he was confident in his abilities against khan he would have fought him when he had the chance
his holding out is evidence that he's clearly not confident enough that he's willing to fight khan and risk the accolades and leverage that he'd get in victory against a defeat, which would completely destroy the opportunity to fight pacquiao or mayweather.



bradley ducked khan
he didn't even hold out for more money
he outright said the risk wasn't worth the reward.


seeing khan on saturday i don't blame bradley
he's going to have a hard time winning rounds against a taller puncher with faster hands like that
and he's not a big puncher


i got a bet on the boards with my man executioner from a while back
and i'm not confident in it anymore!

exactly... floyd is ALREADY buttering up and prepping his UK fanbase.

Exactly. Floyd would get the lionshare of UK ppv money if Khan and him fought, so that would be an atractive fight for Floyd.

Bradley couldn't even sell 2,000 tickets in his own hometown, the dude has no fans, so no reason for Floyd to fight him.

But, if Bradley signs with TR as the rumor has it, then there is no way in hell Floyd would ever even think of Bradley.

Now come on JROSALES, how did the man duck khan??? The man wants to fight arguably two fighters that are simply better than khan. The man wants to get paid, I cant knock him for that at all. Everyone knows what he's trying to do and what hes been trying to do... Hes been trying to get that pacquiao fight and thats no secret...

Now whether people say its for the money or whatever they would be right... HES A PRIZE FIGHTER!!!

WITH A NEW BORN CHILD!!!

THE MAN IS LOOKING OUT FOR THE WELL BEING OF HIS FAMILY. He knows that he and khan can meet up later this is common sense. But to call the man a ducker when hes lookking to fight better opposition for more money is ludicrous at best....

Hell I read somewhere on here that Tim said a fight with him and pacquiao was promised. This reminds me of the margarito vs manny fight. People were like hell naw, I doubt it who has margarito beaten since he was caught cheating??

and lo and behold this is exactly what happened....

Now I ask you, you have a newborn child, you fight for a living.... DO YOU FIGHT AMIR KHAN OR MANNY PACQUIAO???

WHAT WOULD YOU DO? PLUS THE MAN HAS LEGAL ISSUES RIGHT NOW WITH HIS FORMER PROMOTIONAL COMPANY.....

I know boxing is about what the fans want to see, but real talk if it was me, I would do the same thing and so would you...

If it was me, I would do what he's doing...Which is DUCK AMIR KHAN and sit my ass out or fight a lesser opponent and cash out.

You can make every single excuse out there. He ducked Amir Khan.

He went from stop running Khan earlier this year, to getting offered a career high payday and 50/50 split on everything, to basically just straight saying I will not fight Khan.

He could of had the best of both Worlds. But, he pulled a Floyd to his Margarito in Khan and ducked his ass. It is what it is I suppose.

his best shot is to be arum's b1tch and be fed to pac... i guess thats what he is waiting in line for.... pretty sad

[New England]

He can fight Floyd and Pac tomorrow. Doesn't take away that he duck Khan. Him fighting Floyd and Pac next would be seen as cashing out.

You can't go from in the beginning of the year saying quit running Khan. Getting 50/50 on everything career high payday to that point and then say I will not fight Khan. Because, I might get a chance at Floyd and Pac.

You could of had the best of Worlds.

He ducked him plain and simple. Anyone can make every single excuse they want. It doesn't take away that Bradley just pulled a Floyd to his Margarito in Khan and ducked him.

in his defense if he fights mayweather or pacquiao and wins khan will still be there for tim to fight. floyd and manny aren't in their 20's

and of course if he wins his paycheck will have an extra zero on there for the rest of his career (khan fight included,) while he's on top



it's a sound business move if you don't think the risk of a khan fight is worth the reward

Khan vs. Mayweather (b/c like everyone has already said, Mayweather has buttered up the UK fanbase that Khan can draw; plus Mayweather stands to make more money in UK PPV then Bradley in USA PPV). Bradley vs. Pacquiao, b/c lets face it Bradley is a "young slick African-American fighter," other than Mayweather, everyone wants to see. IMO, I would want the proverbial Pacquiao vs. Mayweather fight; but unless Pacquiao goes through the OSDT we all know that fight will still be "proverbial" and nothing more.

So fighting the lineal ww champ and then moving up in weight to fight ODH for the title and $25 mil is a duck? Dude you are delusional. You'd have done exactly what floyd did. Stop pretending you are some boxing statesman and would put the sport ahead of your family's financial needs.

[Eastbay Giant]

Bradley has most likely already been poached by Top Rank, so it's whatever. -

[Money_May]

Well there you have it from bradley own mouth hes ducked khan plain and simple. Now he should be stripped of his belts and Khan elevated to number one.

The division wants to see a undisputed champ and the only way this happens is if khan fights the winner of maidana/guerrero for all the belts at the end of the year.

[PrinceNaz88]

Bradley is a joke. He is scared to death of Amir Khan and all he wants is a payday against Mayweather and Pacquaio. He knows he can't beat either of them.

In the last 6 months or so he has gone right down in my estimation...
