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

[Rome-By-Ko]

I agree with you. I'm not a huge Alexander fan, but if hed beaten Bradley, I believe he would've done what is obvious, and fought Khan, instead of being a huge coward like Bradley.

Bradley blew his chance to ever get a significant fanbase, they guy is a boring coward. And he openly says he doesn't care what the fans think. Bradley is a disgrace and he exemplifies all that is wrong with boxing.

Like the blind leading the blind in this post..Devon said Khan who and even said out. His own mouth he was not looking in Khans direction before he fought Timmy so ya fail...

Bradley thinks people watch to see watch to see him lose like Floyd, but he has no swagger.

This coupled with the fact he doesnt have anywhere close to Floyd's talent, charisma or track record at making big money.

Most blatant duck I've seen in a while. Wow.

Anyone who says otherwise is mad. The man doesn't want to unify the division and doesn't want to risk the defeat. He clearly ducked khan already when they refused a 50/50 split and now THIS. LMAO. He won't land a fight with either of the guys he's chasing BTW.

For starters, he's yet to go up in weight. THen who would he fight to get his name large enough for either fighter to sign. Outside of Ahmir, no one will get him any publicity at this point in the weight class.

If you're talking about Bradley, he has gone up in weight. Remember, he fought Abregu at 147.

But for your other points I have to say I agree with most of it. I think most people (like myself) have been patient with Tim in understanding his contractual issues and a baby on the way. But when a fighter who is supposed to be at the top of his division, starts telling people he doesn't "care" what they think (comes off as a F.U. to his fans) he risks alienating the small amount of fans he does have.

I've been a big supporter of Bradley and I'm still a fan of his, but I think this is a big mistake on his part to say he has NO interest in fighting Khan. I agree with what Kev has been saying in his posts, save one thing... With out an ABSOLUTE guarantee from Bob Arum that Bradley is NEXT for Pacquiao, then Tim is playing not only a guessing game but the waiting game, and that's dangerous IMO. I'd say that even IF Mayweather was willing to fight Bradley, you'd think that his chances would be better if he were to fight/beat Khan and try to eliminate Khan from the Mayweather equation. Without doing so, what benefit can Bradley bring to the Mayweather table? None really, he doesn't generate the kind of money that Khan can, so of course Mayweather is gonna chose Khan over Bradley. As far as with Pacquiao, he fights Marquez in November, which means he won't fight again until next April or May - and as I said unless Tim has been GUARANTEED to be NEXT... it could be next November before he's even in the running. A LOT can happen in that time, there could be rematches should Pacquiao lose, etc. etc.

Being completely honest, Bradley needs Khan on his resume to be able to bring any sort of interest to Pac or May $$$ wise. Without him, he can continue to beat other guys (if he fights) and keep his "0", but he still won't bring the kind of money to the table that's needed to interest the 2 top WW in the world.

Bottom line... Bradley needs to fight and beat Khan for either Team May or Team Pac to even consider him to be a big enough name to bring in the bucks for a PPV. That's just the way it works with Pac and May.

Yeah jrosales right. Floyd fights the lineal champ but he ducked a fringe champ. He then moves up to 154 to fight the cash cow for a title. But he again ducked the 3rd rated ww who lost to daniel santos. Thats right floyd left top rank so he didn't have to fight cotto and marg. Not because Bob was stealing money from him.

Either way you and any other poster on this board fights for the true ww title and then the biggest possible payday to that point in their career.

Marg was ranked #1 at WW at this time. So I don't know he was the 3rd rated but whatever.

Yes Floyd fought the journeyman and then went on to fight a part time fighter, full time promoter. Instead of a legit threat, #1 rank WW and arguably the best fighter in his division.

Like I said both Floyd and Bradley could of had their cake and ate it too. But, they chose not to. I don't know why people keep ignoring this fact.

You're right in one thing. If I was Floyd and Bradley, I would have done what they did. And, that is duck Margarito/Khan. I agree sir.

Marquez had an agreement to fight before the Mosley fight, so I wouldn't assume Devon wouldn't have fought Khan.

Because its not a fact. Floyd won the lineal title and then moved up. Bradley hasn't done this. While we can agree Bradley ahs ducked, your dislike for floyd is making you equate the two when they are not equal.

And you argue when people say Manny ducked Zahir Raheem?

So you are criticizing something you would have done too?

[jrosales13]

Yes, I would have ducked them. And, I would have deserved every single criticism that would have come my way.

No way of sugar coating. People can make every single excuse out there. Both cases were plain and simple a duck.

No he'll say some crazy **** like yeah I would duck them and you can call me onit. But he argues with anyone who says manny ducked zahir raheem using the same idiotic logic.

Wow this funny.....
