    Well said.

    Ortiz is the most qualified opponent to face either Manny or Floyd.

    And I got Bradley next in line.

Quite the opposite - beating Khan this year would actually dramatically increase his chances of getting a fight with Pac next year, and he can't fight Pac before next year in any case. Why do you keep pretending that it's either/or when it isn't, Romey?
      Why next year ?

      Bradley is front of the queue NOW !!

      If not, then who is next for Pac ?

      Cintron ?

      Jones ?

      If you are next in line, probably for both, why would you consider risking that?

        Why not ?

        Who else would Mayweather fight if Pac falls through, again ?

        Neither of those reasons are acceptable to me.

        Neither is the current situation with the Klitschko's, and they are brothers.

        Within the last few days both Khan and Roach have stated that they were not ready yet.

        They recently stated that Amir will fight once more at JWW, then fight Kell Brook, then fight Mayweather..... nothing I have heard has suggested that Khan will fight Mayweather next.

          " The plan is to have Khan fight once more at junior welterweight (Erik Morales' and Robert Guerrero's names have been mentioned) before moving up. A spring fight with British prospect Kell Brook is a possibility, followed by a potential showdown with Floyd Mayweather at the end of 2012 "

          At the post-fight press conference following Amir Khan’s impressive fifth-round knockout of Zab Judah, Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer laid out the blueprint for his new unified WBA/IBF super lightweight champion’s future.

            bradley is next in line how? got any proof? this is just speculation at the moment. arum can pull a rabbit out of his ass at any time like he did before.
            also marquez fought a tuneup /arguably against a bum though/ even though he had a pac fight in bag already. bradley's prolonged vacationing is a definite change of heart, for a guy who once used to be a warrior. now he's obviously cherry picking there.

                Bradley will land that big payday before Khan will.....

                I have already stated why.....

                And Khan not wanting to fight Pac because they are now " friends " is absurd.

                What the *** is up with that ?

                Bradley is ready NOW, whereas both Khan and Roach have publicly stated that Amir is not ready yet.

                Bradley has already been mentioned as an opponent for both, which is why he took an interim fight at welter vs Abregu. Now nobody can say that Pac/Floyd are selecting a JWW, and it is common for a champion to move up and challenge.

                And I am still waiting to hear a suggestion as to who would be more qualified for a payday vs Pac/Floyd, than our favorite buckethead, Tim Bradley?

                To use a racing term, Tim is in the 1-1, the perfect position.

                I can see whats up there, especially in light of his promotional issues.

                Boxingscene..... still FULL of guys with itchy trigger-fingers, who just cant wait to pull out the old "coward" card.

                If Bradley lands a payday with either Pac or Floyd next, all of you experts will disappear.

                Even if I was likely to whip out the "coward" card myself, I would at least wait until the details regarding Bradleys promotional problems were made public, seen too many people end up with egg on their faces by jumping to silly knee-jerk conclusions.
                Name a better opponent for EITHER Pacquiao or Mayweather, than Bradley ?

                  His win against Berto In a fight he was considered underdog trumps anything Bradley has done in his career.

                  Ortiz looked good, exciting and most importantly PPV worthy.

                  Bradley has never looked either exciting or PPV worthy.

                    floyd said he's interested in khan and maravilla. no mention of tim at all. and since he fights 1/year it's not happening in 2012.
                    for pac bradley isn't a big draw since he only brings the belts and little money to the table. plus consider bradley is a relatively risky fight due to his style and excess headbutting.
                    personally i think mike jones is a possibility as is saul alvarez and any other top5 welter and a category above/below. and don't laugh there for mentioning alvarez, money makes strange bedfellows, and pac's boxing career is limited, he will retire at the end of 2013.

                      Of course not to you the Bradley hate has always spewed from ya lips before this and after this..Hell if Bradley fought and beat Khan tomorrow you would have something negative to say bro...Ortiz quit in the ring and said he does not deserve to get beat up(as a boxer to say that is insane)..He fought to a draw with a fighter that was clearly beat by Bradley..He was never a top 5 fighter at Jr WW where he was bigger then everyone he faced..And don't give me the weight drain crap Ortiz was fighting at Jr WW for yrs and that one to Maidana is not his sole lost...And now because he beat Berto(who is really unproven tbh)he better and more exciting then Bradley??Your just a hater fam it's clear as day now..

                      Oh ya know why most people say May is not exciting and Pac is??Because Pac has more holes in his game..You can't blame someone for being dominate over their opponents..So Bradley is boring because he dominates and Ortiz is exciting because he gets folded up time again??Makes perfect sense..
