    No they weren't, and DG wasn't nearly the same name as Bradley was and it wasn't the same kind of fight.

    A lot of things had happening in British tv from July 2011 to July 2012. Basically, they weren't doing PPVs-

      What if Bradley was the victim of a UK ref job and/or decision? The huge payout against Pac would be gone.

      Tim did the right thing in going with Top Rank.

        Broner maidana was supposed to be PPV but ended not being. How do you know this wouldn't have been the same? You can't say for sure. Bradley has gone on to be on PPV undercard and headlined in 2 since and I'm sure will get a couple more at least. Has khan even done a American PPV?

          Lmao, Bradley and Dunkin both said 2mill was not a true number..Everything else in this post is hear say and not solid at all..

            It was scheduled for Mandalay Bay, NV so doubt there anyone would be a victim of a "UK ref job". Khan, however, was in severe danger of being the victim of a 'Cooper ref job'.

            Listen, British TV were high on a Khan-Bradley fight. It would have been PPV - you can't compare it to the American TVs. Something happened and they stopped doing PPV, so DG-Khan wasn't.

            And Bradley has only been on PPVs because he was fighting Pacquiao and JMM. Bradley is not a PPV fighter. If Khan had fought Pacquaio it would have been PPV too!

              It was on PPV and Bradley was offered 50% of the revenue. There's no maybes about it. Lamont Peterson took the same deal for the proposed rematch against Khan.

              Garcia wasn't on PPV because Sky stopped doing PPVs for a while thanks to David Haye's shambolic fights.

                The awkward moment when a Tim Bradley fan complains about potential bad decisions.....

                Also the fight was never mooted to take place in the UK

                  So Bradley and Bradley's manager said something which is not "hearsay" right? Cos in your warped arse licking world, everything they say is Gospel

                    I stand corrected.
