    Who would oppose a rematch other than Bradley? He's the one who got nearly punked. Arum is the King of rematches, trilogies, quadrologies so he doesn't have to put too much promotional effort. He's old and he's become lazy. Fans won't object to a rematch. It's all up to Bradley and his wife.

      If Provodnikov gets a win against another high level fighter it makes the fight much more valuable from Arum's perspective, Bradley's too. Ruslan getting established as a top welterweight in his own right makes the rematch a lot more significant than if he's just a guy who gives Bradley fits.

        Bradley complained bitterly that Pacquiao did not rematch him after his disputed win over Pacquiao. Lots of fans including myself think Bradley lost this fight as well as the Pacquiao fight. He has a chance to practice what he preaches and give the Russian the rematch he deserves. However if Bradley is offered a big money fight with Marquez or Pacquiao I would not blame him for taking that fight. Business is business. I think a rematch with the Russian would sell just as well as a fight with the winner of Rios-Alvarado.

          Yup, just give them some additional months to recover and make sure the money is right for both. They earned it.

            Bradley is a proud man. I don't think he'd shy away from a rematch at all. To even suggest he would is blasphemy.
