People need to chill out on this Bradley hatred ish.

[-GDS-]

bradley knew he was gonna get the fight..that's why he ignored khan...so uncle bob sealed the deal a long long time ago...what a sneaky old **** lol

Probably... more or less.

I don't think Antwone Smith is with Top Rank, is he? But, yea that would have actually been a solid fight.

Maybe too risky though? Since Smith doesn't have name value but still not a total scrub...While Casamayor has name value but shot to pieces...

I never even thought about a Bradley-Smith match up...That could have been interesting.

Look some of the hate that Bradley gets is from the Khan crew and I think deservedly so...The rest of the hate that Bradley gets, has absolutely nothing to do with Bradley... It has to do with ****** ass Floyd fans vs Pac fans crap...Where they try to diminish the other guy future opponent.

I still have my doubts that Pac will even fight Bradley next...But, if he does, this would be a great 2012 start for Pac. He will fight a legit threat IMO. A dude that's on top of his game and very versatile. I wouldn't say it's a walk in the park for Pac. For sure his toughest test since Cotto...However, I wouldn't be shocked if Pac fought the winner of Marg-Cotto II next.

I thought Smith was at least somewhat handled by Top Rank like Jones is. Smith would of been a bit tricky, but certainly not too much for Bradley. And I'm not sure whose going to fight who next, and I honestly don't think anything said by either guy means anything until Pac-Marquez is over, but as a big Floyd fan, I think it's ****** to trash someone because they may fight a rival of your favorite boxer next. Just keep it real.

That's exactly right..he has been in the game for years and made millions how many more millions does he need ???Why is it always top rank vs top rank?? Well most of the time it is!!

But the fact remains that since he lost mayweather ..pacquiao is his next best thing..who else is out there who would give him such a big cut of the purse and who else has such a popularity status?? No one..cotto and margarito are popular but when it comes to marketing and selling pacquiao is the last guy who will bring top rank such big money in.

For rich greedy people, there's never a such thing as enough money...But, that has nothing to do with what I said at all.

Again, you act like Arum hasn't lost stars before. He has lost stars and always had another one lined up...When he lost Oscar...No one thought Pac would be where he's at now, right?

The man resume speaks for itself....That's the one thing you can't deny about him...You can call him whatever you want. Any bad name you want to associate with him is fine. He probably deserves it... But, he knows how to manufacture a star...He's done it so many times after losing his main one.

My only current beef with Bradley is the Casa fight.

What a sh$t fight.

[Simply Zyzz]

its not the bradley hate, its how top rank works, bob arum has no intention of ever making the fight with mayweather... its the same pattern...

-the first time bob arum said they were trying to make the mayweather fight, margarito was already going aorund saying he was promised the pacquiao fight (fact)
-the second time, mosley was already going around saying he was going to fight pacquiao
-the third time, one week before the mosley fight, marquez is offered the next pacquiao fight
-and now, everyone knows bradley is next...

same song and dance....

I always thought he was with Shaw? Maybe I'm wrong and you're right...He might some capacity with Top rank...Who knows?

It really is, this is probably his worst choice of opponent since winning the title against Witter, even worse than fighting Edner Cherry.

[-GDS-]

Remember one thing..as long as pac is signed with arum we will never see him fight mayweather...I think pac would love to fight but arum has other plans..if he lets pac fight floyd and he loses..where does that leave bob arum?? who has he left?? he's got cotto and margarito but them together won't be able to pull the numbers pacquiao pulls.

In the future, Rios and maybe Benavidez could pull it off.

My only current beef with Bradley is the Casa fight.

What a sh$t fight.

No arguement there. But his next fight will probably be better. To JRO, I think this is much worse than Cherry, but we'll see what Bradley does next.

I'm sorry, but as a huge supporter of Bradley, I cannot support this fight. It's a joke. This is the one thing I was worried about when I heard he was talking with Top Rank earlier this year. I knew they wouldn't match him very well...

He should be fighting Mike Alvarado (the best choice IMO) or Humduckto Soto. Or at least respect the WBO and fight someone ranked by them, seeing how he's defended ONCE in the nearly two years...

I really hope Casa is a place holder opponent. The dude damn near got his head taken off by a blown up, 3 divisions higher Guerrero in the first round before he started running. If this goes the distance, I'll lose a bit of respect for Timmy...

Seriously, what has Casa done since losing to Marquez? The dude is beyond finished. Make Bradley-Alvarado for the WBO and the WBC Emeritus!

Yea Bradley-Alvarado would have been the shit...Perfect undercard fight and a great way to build up Bradley...But, then again could they have seen Alvarado as being to risky?

The Casa fight sucks. It's not even worthy to being on the undercard of the PPV.

But, Arum is not known for putting on stack cards...The Marg-Cotto II card looks like the exception to the rule.

He's a slimeball, but he is very crafty.

How he convinced Manny to give him 27% of his earnings I'll never know.

OH WAIT. Yeah, I do know how that happened:

Manny is an illiterate ******, who ALLOWED it to happen.

If it wasn't for boxing, Manny would still be working construction in the Philippines.

And who knows if his entire career wasn't built off the back of PEDS.

It's certainly plausible, to say the least.
