Comments Thread For: Tim Bradley Reflects Back, Explains Amir Khan Meltdown

[IMDAZED]

Who really cares if the guy's fighting Pacquiao next?

Does that excuse the fact that he ducked Khan? Of course not. It does't matter if he thought he was going to get a shot at Pac. He claimed to be the best at 140 but ducked his only viable candidate after stating that they should fight.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing and yes he's done well to get the fight with Pac. But once again, that doesn't deter from the fact he ducked Khan.

Do you know how dumb that sounds? Why would you duck Amir Khan yet fight Manny Pacquiao?

Except, he's not. He's fighting Manny Pacquiao. And what is he getting from you? "Well, he could've been fighting a bum." Yeah...he could've.

Keep using hindsight to justify your double standards.

He signed with TR because he knew Arum would protect him until he needed an opponent for Pacquiao. Whereas GBP wanted him to fight Khan first. He said it himself.

Its one of the most blatant admissions of ducking Ive ever heard apart from "What if I lose the Khan fight?"

Thought Floyd & Cotto were ahead of Bradley on that "list"? Hell even JMM IV was before a Bradley fight. So what Dirk is saying is actually quite true.

floyd was not on arums list ahead of bradley lol. Cotto was because top rank wanted to keep cotto under contract by extending his contract with a multifight deal if he agreed to the pac fight but he turned it down. Jmm was demanding they fight in mexico so he was never really an option for the june fight.

As dumb as it sounds, it's what happened.

He ducked Khan and fought Joel Casamayor and now he's got Pac.

You can't escape the fact he ducked Khan unless your brain-dead, ******ed, a Bradley nut-hugger, trolling or just plain ******.

Take your pick.

Except Arum didn't protect him. And he's fighting Pacquiao, who he happily agreed to face. In two weeks. A guy who pees all over Khan. No need for hindsight. The present works quite fine.

Or a guy who has different standards for black fighters....

He protected him by putting him in the ring with a stoned 40 year old Casamayor. Whereas if he'd have signed with GBP, he'd have been fighting Khan.

If Cotto had accepted the Pacquaio fight, he'd be fighting another bum until Arum was ready to send him out as Pacquiao's next piece of cannon fodder.

Ducking is when Mayweather refuses a 50 - 50 with Pac and fights lesser opposition.

A good business decision is saying no to a Khan fight in the hopes of getting an even bigger fight.

Tell me, do you think Bradley would have faced Khan if there was no TR deal?

Yes, the string of bums that ended at one. Bradley wasn't forced to fight Pacquiao. But he's facing him. Someone who ****s all over Amir Khan. In two weeks. Reality.
