• Disgruntled junior welterweight titlist Timothy Bradley Jr. has been idle since his January win against Devon Alexander, after which he turned down a unification fight with Amir Khan for 50-50 terms. He has been mired in a legal dispute with co-promoters Gary Shaw and Ken Thompson since then. However, settlement talks between the lawyers for the fighter and promoters have been hot and heavy. If they reach an agreement -- which I expect, even though multiple sources involved have told me they are still quite a bit apart on the amount of money the promoters would receive to walk away -- Bradley is headed for Top Rank. Top Rank's plan is for Bradley to return Nov. 12 on the Manny Pacquiao-Juan Manuel Marquez HBO PPV undercard. Obviously, Top Rank would be prepping Bradley for a possible shot at Pacquiao if a fight between Pacquiao and Mayweather doesn't come off.
