    Or fire the guy who is taking more of the cut than needed?

      I think they just want to keep it in the family, they did struggle when Tim wasn't even known and she was right there for him, she was a divorced mother of two when they got together and I think she will always appreciate the support and love he showed to her and her children, I could be wrong but she doesn't seem to be that type of girl, but like someone else said...time will tell.

        This is Shane Mosley all over again; how do you only get a 1 mil raise for a Manny fight.

          I'm not really worried about Monica doing anything shady. I would just hate to see a couple years from now they get screwed somehow. Forgot to dot an "I" or cross a "t" type of thing. I'm sure this first deal went smooth and everybody's happy, but that's usually how it works.

          With that said it seems Monica and Tim deal strictly with Todd debeuff which seems to be working. I like Todd, he always has Tim's back. As long as everybody is happy and is getting what they want from each other. Then there should be no complaints.

If Tim wins, he's re-signed to TR and can't fight any GBP fighters including Floyd. Not a smart move! Even if he wins, does he want a rematch with either Marquez, Provodnikov or Manny over a potential Floyd Mayweather fight? I know it's no guarantee Floyd would fight him, but he fought Cotto and Marquez. NOT A SMART MOVE TIM! Best of luck in April.
            I'm super bummed out if that's true.

              Dunkin sounds like a typical business dude...."I care, I reached out once or twice last year". Bad health or not brother, I doubt you were sick for an entire year and you could only manage two phone calls or one phone call and an email? Let me tell you something, I'm just a fan and I have sent way more emails than you did.......take that to heart and cry about it on your own time. Still Bradley gives you credit and advises others to seek out your services....you should consider yourself lucky.

                Jin Mosley wasn't a single mother with two kids either. Dude got a 6 mill guarantee..that doesn't count PPV cut. How many other boxers not named Floyd, Pac or Cotto make that kind of money?

                  Like you just said..............I think time has already told and Tim acted accordingly.

                    Check ESPN:

                    "Arum said Pacquiao will be guaranteed $20 million -- a $6 million cut from the first fight -- and that Bradley would receive $6 million, a $1 million raise from the first fight. Both fighters will also be cut in for an upside of the pay-per-view profits, Arum said. The first bout generated approximately 890,000 pay-per-view buys, according to Mark Taffet of HBO PPV."

                    Filipino icon Manny Pacquiao and welterweight titlist Timothy Bradley Jr., whose June 2012 fight will go down as one of the most controversial decisions in boxing history, will meet again.

If he's going to get a great minimum to fight recycled fights on TR events. The ones that are going to be hurting is TR not Bradley.

                      If Pac becomes a free agent in 2015. Marquez has maybe two more fights in him. If he rematches Bradley later this year who the hell wants to see that PPV again not me thats for sure. I am not even watching the Pac vs Bradley rematch why would I watch Marquez vs Bradley 2. If TR doesn't put better undercards their PPV sells are going to flop worse then last year.
                      Exactly what I was thinking!! Idk how people like to watch these same fighters fighting each other again and again. We got
                      PAC vs marquez 1-4....it'd be 1-5 if arum had his way
                      Now we got PAC vs Bradley 1-2...I'm anticipating PAC winning and a 3rd fight to materialize
                      Marquez wants a rematch too so expect at some point Bradley vs marquez 1-2 lol...idk how people support this nonsense...I ain't buying no PAC, Bradley or marquez ppv ...matter of fact I haven't bought a TR PPV...and I will continue to not buy TR PPV's
