    Uh Bradley didn't duck Khan. People have short memories. Bradley wanted the Khan fight and Khan said the other people at 140 should have a tournament like he was some shot caller and he would fight the winner. When Bradley moved on to try and get with Arum to usher himself into position for the Pac sweepstakes, guess who, a member of the wildcard gym with the same trainer as Pac, decides he's going to start calling Bradley out? Then everybody thinks Bradley ducked Khan? LOL No. Bradley ducked nobody. At all. It's FULL ON BS. But even if he did pick Pac above Khan, it isn't different than Khan taking the best over a lower level of titlist. How is it bad to take on bigger challenges? WTF sense does that make for people? I don't know.

          Bradley ducked Khan to preserve his status as a top boxer and goes on to fight Pac.
          While Khan ducked Alexander, which he needed to fight and win to restore his status as a top boxer, but gets to move on to fight Floyd?

          Anyways, the burden or hate on this fight is on Floyd if it happens, not Khan.

            you falling hook, line and sinker for Alexander team's garbage? I bet half of you haven't worked out that Alexander is mentioning Khan's name in the media just to get publicity for his next fight.. he never wanted to fight Khan, that's why he arranged the Porter fight so quickly and then started saying Khan's ducking him to cover his own tracks of ducking Khan..

              Alexander is a twat, fuck him
              Bradley did duck Khan, he coulda fought him before Pac
              the man said flat out he feared losing and missing out on Pac
              nobody gives a fuck about Alexander, the less we see him, the better

                There is no difference. Both made the right short term financial decision.

                Now is it the best long term decision? remain to be seen. In tim's case it turned out not to be because he beat manny (i thouht he lost) and JMM. right now he should be fighting floyd but he isn't.

                Tim could be in the same position cotto is in had he made a different decision.

                  From what I remember if Bradley had signed to fight khan, contracts were ready, that he had to stay with his old promoter longer and he didn't want that. He wanted the khan fight and tobe out since it was his last fight under that promoter. So instead he had to sit out and wait and had legal issues then got cleared Togo top rank and chase pacman.

                  And IMO had Bradley fought Khan I'm pretty sure Bradley would've beat Khan. Unless he got robbed. Bradley beats khan IMO. 140-147. But I guess it is seen as a duck.

                    The situations are totally different tbh,Bradley contract was ending and Khans is not..You can't blame Khan for going for Floyd either..Any rational person would do the same thing..

                      How you know if you made the long term better decision is to see how much money you made..Then look at GBP and see if you could have made that there..The answer would be no,hell I believe Mayweather would have tried to offer Bradley about 3mill and said be happy with that..Look how he did Guerrero,TR long term for Bradley is the better decision..Floyd is the biggest star in the sport no doubt..Does not mean every fighters career revolves around him..Bradley made the better choice in Promoters as well as opponents imo..
