    Because Tim is not a KO artist,and the fact that he's a nice guy, I don't think he will become a mega PPV star.I think he will reach the same level as a Terry Norris or Pernell Whitaker. He will end up a hall of famer, but not make the money that De La Hoya, Floyd or Manny made.I think black fighters have to act ignorant and flamboyant like Floyd or be brutally savage with KO power like Tyson to be financially successful in boxing. There has to be some type of gimmick for them to crossover to superstardom. But I think Arum sees the talent that Tim has. And because he doesn't want Manny to lose to Floyd, who's not signed with him, he signs a guy thats a young champion and has the tools to beat Manny. So if Tim wins, Arum still makes millions off the rematch and rubbermatch and takes all the promotional gain.Great business move on his part. Great move on Tim's part.

      Frank Warren claiming that he had big fights lined up for someone who has left him is about as common as headbutts in a Tim Bradley fight. Doesnt mean shiiiiit.
