    Don't know know how he feels about Marquez... but welcome to Top Rank Bradley... your options... are thin as shit
    I think they offered Brook, but he said he started down the path of the IBF and he wants to finish it
    Maybe Bradley can fight Jesse Vargas if he happens to win his net fight

      Didn't turn out too well for Brook. He could probably fight Porter, IBF might demand it (Brook that is)
      Ok so nothing on Pacquiao?

        Maybe... all depends on when Bradley wants to fight. I think I heard him say he wanted to fight 3 times this year... but doubt it..... also doubt Vargas wins against Khabib.
        The toughest opponent Vargas has fought was Vargas and Vargas is a good, not great, fighter.

        Options are really thin....really scratching my head at who it could be.
        Maybe Brook...maybe he had a change of mind of fighting for the IBF. Because I think Porter is allowed a voluntary and there's and off chance he'll want to unify with Maidana/Mayweather (unlikely,but possible)

          All the talk is on Provo so far and according to Provo's team, they've already started negotiating

            Why would Bob want to destroy the Bradley Hype. An unmotivated Manny won 10 rounds a focused Manny stops him or wins all 12 rounds

              Yea there ain't no way Bradley is fighting 3 times, he will be lucky to get 2 and even then he will have to keep his expectations in check when it comes to his pay check.

              Yea that is a tough fight for Vargas that was why I qualified it, if he wins I would be willing to accept him as an opponent for Bradley not a great one but it would at least be passable.

              Top Rank is really thin from 140 to 154, maybe they can dig up Mike Jones~

                I really want to see Bradley vs. Pacquiao II because I think Tim will went the re-match, the first fight was a Pacman win but it was closer than people try to blow it up to be. The dude went toe-to-toe with Manny on two broken feet and it seems he's rejuvenated and has much more confidence in his brawling skills after the Provodnikov fight. I want to see Bradley fight Manny again and Ruslan take on Marquez. Those are the fights to be made at Top Rank.

                  I read this earlier. Why isn't there talk of Bradley Pacquiao 2? Is Bradley going to fight Juan again? Why is there talk of Brook for Provo and Provo for Manny?

                  If money is the issue would a Marquez rematch bring more that a Pacquiao rematch for Bradley? I doubt it.

                    I would love a rematch, but I would rather see Bradley challenge Floyd.

                    WAR BRADLEY!!!!

                      everytime I think enough time has elapsed for this fight to happen again, I think back to that night and how the fight made me feel....

                      the shouting at the tv, the sound of shattering beer bottles, the flipped over tables, broken dishes, babies crying, dogs barking, cops sirens and handcuffs clicking. im not ready to go back to that
