    no way either of those happen. if bradley resigns, his best years will be spent at top rank. he'll be the new face of their american boxing im guessing.

      This is standard practice for Pacquiao and Mayweather fights. Golden Boy did the same for Guerrero in order to get the Maywether fight. Don't see anything wrong with it. Nobody is forcing Bradley to accept.

      I'm sure Bob will eventually steal some fighters from Golden Boy by promising them Pacquiao eventually.

        The only a lot of money is against Mayweather and he's probably going to make more in a Pac rematch.
        Then with TR his minimums will be raised and he'll be making more money than ever.

        But of course, Bradley is the guy that isn't allowed to do what's best for him

          I think at the end of the day, it comes down to this.

          If Bradley KOd (miraculously) or straight up beat Pacquiao, why the hell wouldn't you have him locked up for an immediate rematch or a few more fights?

          You really want the guy that just beat your money maker to go run off to GBP/SHOWTIME, and you're left with egg on your face?

          I'm pretty sure that's standard procedure.

            There's Mayweather, and since Bradley fought at 152 in the amateurs, I Don't see how he can't fight Canelo. There's also Danny Garcia, Lucas Matthysse, there's a rematch with Angulo at 154 too if Angulo beats Canelo. Angulo beat Bradley at 152lbs in the amateurs, Bradley-Angulo at 154 would be a very good fight and have some background too. There's Maidana, Thurman, Ortiz. There's of course the weakest links, Guerrero and Khan. But Mayweather, Garcia, Canelo, Maidana and Angulo are enough for him to retire on after going through that resume.

              Why is that? Nobody is pointing a gun on his head. It's a free country.

                  Everybody saying it's dumb to stay with the promoter and network that'd give him the most money

                    That would suck. Pacquiao vs Bradley 2 certainly isn't worth passing over fights like Mayweather, Thurman, Garcia, etc.
