    Warren was just talking ***** through the media after Khan left him. Why do you hang onto that so much? Khan had had 1 fight at 140 at that time. Khan-Bradley was not THE fight at 140. Stop comparing the two you desperate little man.

        i'll ahve to go back and check the timeline again, but i'm pretty sure that he was waiting for his contract to expire during the window where the khan fight was most reasonable (after the alexander fight, where he actually made more than 2 million,)

        he wanted to get away from gary shaw and thompson boxing, and taking a khan fight would have extended his tenure as a gary shaw fighter. obviously you know that he couldnt work with a GBP fighter and sign with top rank for the same fight
        He could have fought Khan with or without Gary Shaw. Shaw turned a boring, no personality, ugly sloppy no name fighter into the position he was at. If you ask me he did a hell of a job. But Bradley and his delusional nuthugger fan think he should be a "brand"

        He could've fought Khan without Shaw. He fought Casamayor instead. People always skip that part out of the timeline. And yes he signed with TR with one of the main perks being that he knew they wouldn't have him fight Khan

        He wasn't confident of beating Khan. That part is undeniable. He said it himself. So thats where the fear part comes into it. He feared losing.

          In what universe did Khan need Bradley to fight Mayweather? Id love to hear an explanation for that one.

            Tim Bradley was not THE FIGHT for Khan. A Mayweather fight was.

            Khan was willing to risk it, Bradley was not. End of story.

              Big gamble? Ducking Khan to fight Casamayor is not a big gamble.

                The universe of the American public which
                Khan has no name or credibility with. Why do you think he's over here campaigning fighting in guys home towns to generate ticket revenue. Once he Bradley beat Alexander the number two in his division he got the call from Bob and was on his way to the big leagues in boxing. He left Khan behind man. U say Alexander wasn't the number 2 guy? Funny HBO said it and all the boxing rankings did.

                  Bradley and Khan left their ex-promoters in very similar fashion,and hey ****head,the point is Khan could have fought Bradley and choose not to..End of story...

                    i think they meant he took a gamble not taking the khan money which would have been his biggest payday. instead he turned down the fight in "hopes" of securing a fight with pacquiao even though it was not a sure thing. if he doesn't get the pacman fight he loses out bigtime financially.

                      Khan is a bigger name and sells more tickets in America than Bradley. That much is for sure.

                      Alexander wasn't the number 2 after getting schooled by Kotelnik. A performance and robbery that was so bad that he was MOVED DOWN to no3 in the Ring Rankings.

                      You were saying?
