For people that say Bradley ducked Khan for Pacquiao...

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Cotto was most definitely the first option. When Cotto refused to go down in weight then Bradley was the next option.

Im sure there were others as well as Cotto. Marquez was one. Freddie Roach said he wanted Peterson over Bradley. Peterson stalled on signing the rematch with Khan because he was in line to face Pacquiao or Marquez. Not to mention the whole thing with Mayweather.

Bradley was a last resort

Nobody wanted to see Cotto vs PAC again, it was clear team PAC did not want Marquez again..It's like nobody has done business before..Of course you not gonna say we wanna fight Bradley next, that's giving Bradley a hand up in negotiation..Do people really believe they brought Bradley to top rank for his looks..

How is this any different from Khan ducking Devon Alexander to get a shot at Mayweather?

LOL, EXACTLY......"What if I lose?"

Bradley didn't duck Khan for Pacquiao. The Pacquiao fight ended up presenting itself, but Bradley saw Khan as a risk he wasn't willing to take and didn't fight him.

Right......he just happened to sign with Top Rank and fight on a Pac PPV undercard immediately after separating from Shaw. All a lucky freak coincidence I suppose.

He didn't fight Khan because he was afraid, he admitted this. He ducked Khan it's undeniable.

Sure, afraid of Khan yet has no quams with fighting Abregu, Pac, Ruslan, and JMM? Something doesn't add up.

[-MEGA-]

There's a big difference. Positioning! Bradley wasn't in the right position business wise to take these fights. He was paying out 30% to his promoters at the time and they were getting him the most money they could. He knew he was in a better position than that went to TR for a garanteed 1mil per fight. The max he was getting paid with shaw. You don't duck khan to fight PAC providnokov and Marquez all of whom would probably tko khan. Bradley was smart, real smart! He wasn't fvkn with the bg's no more he wanted to fvk with the og's!
Now Tim's teetering on an HOF resume GBP promotions fights are fun to watch and go to because they're geared towards a younger audience. But whom from Gbp is close to HOF material? Guerrero/Ortiz/khan/Thurman/Devon/canelo/broner/matthysse/Garcia? I don't think so. Maybe somewhere in the future but not yet....
Besides Bradley's contract is up soon and if khan wants it and it makes money I'm sure he could get it.
STORMTROOPER UP!!

The difference is Khan didn't actually say it.

You can't put something in quote marks if they didn't say it.

Bradley on the other hand, he actually said "what if I lose"

That's the difference.

That's the difference.

There is also a big difference of class of fighter were taking about, and promotions..Fight Khan for 2mill, or sign to TR for three fights and make over 7mill..Which one would you take sir..Honestly it's a no brainer..

Not even getting into that.

Just saying why you can't put "what if I lose" in quote marks regarding Khan and Alexander because he didn't actually say that unlike Bradley in regards to Khan.
