Comments Thread For: Bradley Pondered Smacking Khan's Face in Confrontation

[-Lowkey-]

That's the bottom line. Khan was confident in risking another loss, risking losing the Mayweather fight. Bradley wasn't. He wanted to protect his 0 going into the Pac fight.

True Bradleys "0" is the only thing that got him this fight if he wasn't undefeated he doesn't really have a lot going for him.

No exciting style
No fan base
No charisma
No knock out power

etc, etc

Yeah I don't see how its even refutable when Bradley said "what if I lose to Khan? I'm out of the sweepstakes for the big fights"

Not only is he admitting the duck he is stating the reason if he was to lose to Khan there would be no Pac fight. His plan was to take the path of least resistance until he secured a mega fight.

Smart business move....Yes, because he obviously thought there was a strong possibility he would lose to Khan and lose the chance of ever getting a Pac fight.

It is a smart business move and yes there is a chance he could lose. Khans pretty good and Tim would be a fool to not consider these things. You guys might look at it as lack of confidence but a lot of people would view it as being smart.

There was no offer to fight Pacquaio on the table when he ducked Khan.

The move to Top Rank was though and Bradley already had a gimme fight for a million dollars through the Alexander fight. Ask yourself this, why would Tim fight Khan for two million dollars and risk it all, when he could fight Casamayor for a million dollars and go from there?

By the time all that got sorted, fought Casamayor, the Pac fight then opened up. Its all turned up roses, money wise for Bradley. After this fight he will be going hard after Khan and hopefully Khan is up to the challenge. Part of me thinks Khan will be b1tchy and feel slighted but it's a business and he needs to understand what all went down. If Mayweather came calling for Khan during negotiations, do you think Khan would of stuck to Bradley?

No you didn't, Timmy. You ducked your head and walked away. Don't talk sh** when you are the one that ducked the fight.

What's he suppose to do?

Punch the guy in the face at the weigh in?

Then what happens when Khan hits him back and possibly cuts him a day before the fight?

He had no comeback.

He was walking on the scales to fight a 40 year old Casamyor while the man he ducked stood there and called him a b1tch straight to his face. There was nothing he could've said or done.

He should've done exactly what he did do - stayed silent, n put his head down like a submissive whore.

Being undefeated, in a pretty talented division, where you have faced almost everyone is nothing to be taken lightly. You act like that 0 isn't a big deal.

Simple question.

Pacquaio didn't come calling for him. He signed with Top Rank so he could duck Khan and take the path of least resistance to a potential fight with Pacquaio.

He could just as easily be fighting another bum right now if Miguel Cotto had accepted the Pac fight and you'd probably co-sign.

He will not get the same offer to fight Khan again so hopefully he makes as much as he can with Pacquaio.

Well Cotto didn't accept, so it worked out for him. As for the same offer for Khan, he should get that. Bradley is going to now be a bigger name from the Pac fight and who knows what happens in that fight. What if Tim actually wins, then what? Then, instead of HBO WCB this fight turns into a big PPV and Khan will be thanking Bradley with all his heart(we all know the Khans love money).

Either way, the whole ducking thing is a bit absurd. They are going to fight, more than likely in the winter or early next year. Did it really bother you that much that they had to wait an extra 16 months?

Yeah everyone apart from the number 1 threat in the division.

Sure his "0" is a big deal but what im saying is its more of a big deal to a fighter like Bradley as its what has enabled him to get this fight. There are other fighters with losses on the record that can still get big fights because they posses at least 1 of the attributes I listed in my previous post.
