    Guerrero will be on TR really soon(he see's were the money is at),mark my words..Would you be against a Bradley Guerrero fight??I know I would not..Guerrero won't be the only one leaving GBP,trust me the landscape of boxing will change in a few yrs..It always does..

      No thats a good fight I would definitely watch. But I thought I just read an article on here a little while back with richard schafer saying that its not true that guerrero is leaving goldenboy, I coulda swore I did.

        in 2 years with golden boy bradley could fight maidana/broner, porter/thurman/brook, garcia/khan/matthysse, and finally mayweather. at the end of that he would surely be worth more money than if he stayed with top rank for 2 years and fought some combination of pacquiao, provodnikov, rios and alvarez.

          Top Rank's roster is ****. I agree with you.

          But that's not Bradley's problem. Top Rank is the multi-million dollar promotional company with top notch matchmakers. Its their job to find opponents. If they are willing to pay Bradley millions of dollars for ****ty opponents then that is their problem.

          If anything, this would be good for boxing because it may force Top Rank to work with GBP to match him with opponents that can justify his contract minimum.

            And he knows this. That's why he's demanding such a high contract minimum from Top Rank. Because if he signs the extension, there is the chance that he may have to forgo all of those fights.

            If I was him, I would ask for a clause in his contract that will allow him to pursue fights against guys from other promotional companies.

              Hopefully this crap will all disappear when Mayweather and Pacquiao are gone. Not long now, hopefully.

                Hbo should start doing business with golden boy again, that will ease alot of this pressure.

                  Ortiz and Guerrero fought Floyd and their careers have turned to ****. Maidana beat Broner and all that got him was a rematch. Alexander's career is on the down swing. Khan is on the verge of being cashed out.

                  Who are these welterweight stars that GBP is building?

                  Every single welterweight and junior welterweight on Golden Boy's roster would love to switch positions with Timothy Bradley at the drop of a dime.
                  great post!

                      Forget the limited options why would you resign with a company that treated you like SHIT after you "beat" Pac?
