    Obviously. He wanted to take the path of least resistance to a payday.

      At the end of the day,boxing is a business and every fighter treats it as one...
      Khan signed a 4 fight deal before he fought McCloskey.

      Fail.

        Bradley wanted it on July 23rd.

        Khan was there ready and waiting, Bradley went into hiding. So Khan had to put on a devastating performance on Super Zab.

          Or he took whatever path was most lucrative.

            Beating Khan and then fighting Pacquiao = more lucrative than Casamayor then Pacquiao

              The cheek of Bradley to say Khan is running.

              Khan said a couple of years ago, Maidana, Alexander and Bradley were the other top fighters in the division, I'll fight Maidana and Alexander and Bradley should fight and the winners should fight each other.

              Khan wanted it, Bradley didn't.

              Bradley talked but couldn't back it up.

                  Sure except you take the deal that's in front of you. I don't think Bradley was going to opt out after one fight. He did have to sign a contract.

                    It's laughable that people are still going on about the Bradley-Khan fight. Look where they're at in their careers right now; Khan got spanked by a fighter Bradley DOMINATED and Tim is getting ready for a huge mega fight with Manny Pacquiao. Amir is in the rebuilding stage while Bradley is getting ready for stardom. I wanted the Khan-Bradley fight just as much as anybody but I dont' fault Tim for chosing the route he took since it paid off. It's like Floyd not fighting Margarito but eventually landing the Oscar fight, sometimes you gotta know when to fold them and when to hold them. It's called strategy people!

                      Opt out of what?
