    Bradley made 1.2 to fight Alexander so where do you get he had not made the kinda money Khan was offering?? Bradley signed to TR and instantly made more money then that..Casamayor was a TR fight that he made 1.2mill for..Then made 5mill to fight PAC..No matter how ya slice it TR was the better offer..As a Bradley hater I would think you would know that, our maybe you did and this is just part of the hate..

    I never said Hatton ducked Witter, cause Hatton made smart business moves..I do however believe he avoided Witter..There were a few times when that fight made since and it did not happen..

    We're still off track tho, ya claim that Bradley is a hype job(or whatever) is still ridicules..
    No, it would be inaccurate of anyone to call him a 5 time champion, because you cannot become a multi time champion when you've been a champion the whole time! If you add a belt to your collection you don't become a two time world champion. It's as simple as that DUMBASS - as you ignorantly called me not knowing what you were talking about.

    Bradley made 1.1 for Alexander, 200.000 below what Khan offered him. Pretty good for a guy that used to do 2k tickets at home lol.

    Did Bradley turn a Khan fight down in July 2011 or not? Which would have been his highest purse to that date. Yes he did, a full 4-5 months before fighting a 40 something year old has been/never was. Impressive.

    He's a hype job because he's ranked in the P4P lists web though he clearly lost his two latest fights! He's a hype job because he's uninteresting and will lose against any world level fighter.

    But actually, you're right. Hype job is the wrong word to use. Because nobody is hyped up about Tim Bradley.

      You become a 4 time world champion by winning a belt, losing and winning it back 4 times. Not by unifying a division. That makes you a 4 time ABC title holder.

      Alternatively, like Bradley has done, you can vacate your titles, fight for them again or move up in weight. If you manage to win, you are then a two time world champion.
      I get what your saying but it still doesnt make much sense.

      How could there be four different champions in one division then? do we only call one of them world champ? Bradley fought and won a belt on four different occasions didnt he?

      If you dont like how four time champion sounds maybe youll like this better:
      Two time, Two division, Twice unified champion!


      Hatton didn't duck Witter, please don't make me laugh. Nobody in Britain has ever taken that club level fighter seriously. Hatton chose to unify with Malignaggi and then fight pacquiao. I mean, Witter must really scare him!
      Bradley didnt duck khan, please dont make me laugh. Nobody in the States has ever taken that club level fighter seriously. Bradley chose to sign with top rank and then fight pacquiao. I mean, Khan must really scare him!

        Hope and pray Marquez finishes this hype job.
        You had better start praying now then.......

            How doesn't it make sense? How can you become a two time world champion by adding another belt to your collection? That's what doesn't make sense. You cannot be a two time world champion if you have been champion all along. The reason why ODLH/Pacquiao/Mayweather are 8-9-10 times champs is because they vacated, moved up, moved down, lost etc.

            Lol at that last part. Khan is an Olympic silvermedalist was a genuine world champion and had beaten far better competition than Bradley had. There's a huge difference.

              Dude you just called Casamayor a has been(at the time Bradley fought him your right)/never was..Never was is where you lose me,Casamayor is ahof fighter bro WTF are you talking about??

              Bradley has made close to about 10mill at this point with TR..It was clearly a better deal then Khans offer..Your whole rant about Bradley let's me and anyone with half a brain know your a clown who can't be taken serious..Good day..

                Bradley won his belts one at a time off champions, not one belt vacated..He also did not win them all together like(let's say Danny Garcia), which is why its looked at differently then a Lewis or Haye who won their belts really all at once..Lmao at Khan beating the better opponent yet being stopped twice and losing to Peterson..

                  Umm... I don't know. Simple arithmetic usually works.

                    Dude, you don't know what you're talking about. Lennox did exactly what Bradley did. Unifying titles and he did it on a few occasions - adding the linial title when he ko'd Briggs and adding the IBF and WBA belts when he beat Holyfield. Once again, those wins aren't whats making him multi time champion. What makes him that is his losses - because he came back from a loss to become champion again - I really have to spell this one out.

                    With regards to your comment about Casamayor - a HOF fighter? Are you really that keen on bigging up Bradley's opponents? He was an ATG amateur with a pretty good pro record - winning a couple titles. But really his greatest feet is his trilogy with Corrales. But he came up short pretty much every other time he stepped it up.

                    What I meant was he was never anything in the LWW division. And it was a **** fight for Bradley at the time.
