So he has completely destroyed the reputation he once had but no longer has.

    You say anyone in Bradley's position would sit it out like Bradley is doing. Bullshit. Khan is in the exact same position as Bradley is in, he's chasing a fight with Mayweather, but he wants to clear out his division first and fight Bradley. Khan is behaving like a real fighter. Bradley is behaving like an accountant. And only an accountant would defend him. not a boxing fan.
    He got a very good chance on signing with Top Rank...and you want to hate on him for chasing one of the best fighters in the sport....

      Why can't he fight Khan this year? He can't fight Pac this year. Do you think it's because Khan would win? What other possible reason could there be???

        Khan is not in the same position if ya wanna be honest,he has a Major promtion team behind him(and has had a major promotion team behind him)and a contract of how many fights with GBP/HBO..Not an accountant just a guy who loves everything about the sport the business side and what goes on in the ring..You have to be knowledgeable on both sides(not saying your not)..Khan is not in the same position as Bradley not even close on the business side of things..

          That's exactly the reason and I think Bradley realizes this. I mean he isn't going to fight Manny till next fall, so that's over a year from now.

            Khan is chasing one of the best fighters in the sport but he isn't using that as an excuse to refuse to fight the biggest challenges in his own division in the meantime. You're purposely being obtuse. This has nothing to do with chasing a fight with Pac. Beating Khan would dramatically increase his chances of landing a fight with Pac and he can't fight Pac this year anyway. This is purely and simply and solely to do with not wanting to risk his 0. And your refusal to acknowledge that does you no credit.

              I'm not Bradley how the hell would I know,I said from the very time I posted in this thread..Very disappointing but I understand..Meaning I wanted this fight so bad,imo it's the top 3 or 4 fights in the sport..But I understand Bradley rolling the dice and trying to fight/beat Pac..I can't be made at that,not like he turn Khan down and then said bring me Casamayor...

                Nothing wrong with 'chasing' but sitting around doing nothing isn’t really ‘chasing’.

                Khan is chasing the fight with Mayweather and he’s doing it by fighting the top guys in his division beating them winning over more fans in the process and making people take note, thus giving him a bigger chance of landing the big fight.

                Bradley should take note.

                  who is to say that the fight won't still happen....if he signs with top rank...then let arum negotiate the fight...remember the boss calls the shots..

                    I think its all Top Ranks and HBO's fault. Top Rank most likely promised Bradley a fight with Pac. And HBO had in the contract that both he and Alexander were promised a million dollar fight in their next HBO appearance which didn't have to be Kahn. So his way of thinking is low risk high reward. He'll fight someone less talented (not a bum) than Kahn at welterweight for that guaranteed money from HBO. Then he'll fight Pac. (I still don't believe the Mayweather fight will happen early next year. Something else will come up). That will be two million dollar fights instead of one against Kahn. I can't see him defeating Kahn. And he sees it as a higher risk. So, it is a smart business move but yes it is still a duck.
