          Sorry but Bradley could have had the the Pac fight, the Casamayor fight AND had the Khan fight which would have been around $1.5 million dollars.

          Plus he could have avoided sitting, hurting his rep, and the money he spent on his legal battle with his promoter.

          I just can't be convinced not fighting Khan was anything but I terrible business move.

            I am happy for Bradley. His people did a great job of handling him. It will be a hard fight for Manny. This match up is far more dangerous than Cotto against Floyd. Even the fight between Manny and Floyd apart, at least they are fighting very live dogs.

                Hope this shuts up all the Con nuthuggers who have been saying Bradley was ducking for the past few months. Any money minded business man knew that he was holding off from putting it on Con, so that he could sign w/ Top Rank and get Pacquiao for the big payday. Mission accomplished!

                  Very true. Pac vs Mayweather or not, this is a major win for boxing regardless.

                    Not a single fighter in the sport in Bradley's position would have fought Khan while shopping for a new promoter at the same time. It would be a huge career risk no matter how confident Bradley might have been that he could win. Plus he would be an unpromoted B-side fighter against a groomed Golden Boy star.
