    No he's not begging for anything..Rather telling Arum aloud that he don't want somebody's left overs..That's not the fighter he is,this should be commend if anything...

      He is asking for Rios right? Then he is begging for him.. Bradley shouldn't be calling Rios or telling Arum to make a fight with him and Rios, Isn't Bradley suppose to be a bigger name than Rios after he beats Pac.

        Honestly.... if Bradley was in the drivers seat then he would have gotten the Pacquiao rematch. Arum got him on the shelf (sad but true) He can't do nothing without Bob Arum's approval like the rest of them. Bob is throwing Bradley Alvarado and not Rios? I applaud and salute him being up front and true but it is what it is.

          I'd love to see Bradley or Gamboa absolutely wreck Rios, but those are fights which will never happen.

            I see Timmy Bradley losing to both Alvarado & Rios. He better take what Arum gives him because he doesn't want to see them..

              Pretty much, all bravado to Timmy but he knows what to expect when he went with Arum, So him now telling Arum he wants Rios is laughable, Why didn't he say that when he was fighting Casamayor?

                I don't see how anyone could disagree with Bradley here. Mike Alvarado is really what they came up with? Bradley is still undefeated with a W against Pac on his record. He deserves better than that.

                It's like he signed a deal with the devil because most of his best matchups are on the GB side. He won't get Rios because he's in line for Pac so who's left?

                The payday and the win will always be worth it, but it might be a year until we see Bradley in anopther big fight.

                  Bradley was so thirsty to land a fight with Pacquiao that he didn't factor in how stubborn Bob Arum was/is. He went for the one big pay day and now he is stuck doing what he doesn't want to do like every other Top Rank fighter. The money wasn't enough to satisfy him. Should have taken the Khan fight and stayed with Shaw. Smaller promoter but more freedom and better conditions..... Oh well!

                    At the rate he's going scratch a big fight it might be a full year before he's in a fight period.......

                      Bradley is saying he is not fighting a guy coming off a loss..Not that hard to understand..Arum is trying to put in the air Bradley Alvarado..Bradley is putting in the air he is not fighting a guy who just was KO'd...Not about asking for anything..Oh and let's be honest,all fighters not named Mayweather ask for or are told who is next..So please stop..Bradley is more known then Rios,that does not make him a bigger draw..You should know better then that...
