    If Tim thinks he wouldn't get a shot thats on him. To my knowledge, tim never discussed anything with GBP.

    If Tim were a free agent, whoever negotiating for him whether it be his wife or another manager would surely not let him sign with GBP without a guaranteed floyd fight.

    I respect Tim's decision but it sounds like he is regurgitating what Deboeff told his wife.

        Why is this acceptable to you??Floyd fights at two weight classes,if he did not wanna fight there he should drop the belt..Until then he is also a JMW and should fight guys like Lara and or Angulo..

        I don't know,Bradley is not coming to be an opponent against Mayweather..He's going to come to win..While Mayweather can make just as much fighting guys like Khan Matt's Maidana..Dudes I'd know he outbox,but have a bit of a bigger fanbase then Bradley..I mean right now it's a no brainer that Maidana over Khan..Yet here we have a poll??I mean dude,I don't believe anything would be nice and easy while involving Mayweather..

          thats the thing, tim didnt even have to sign with gbp, he could have stayed a free agent and floated the idea of a floyd showdown just to see how far that got him. imo, tim just didnt dare to be great. he settled. and thats his right, but thats what separates the superstars from the b listers. thatskinda what happens when u have your wife negotiating for u as well.

              You said fighters in Mayweathers stable and then named Martinez. It is you that failed.

                LMAO..So because Tim did not chase Mayweather and become another one of his puppets he did not dare to be great??Did I miss something or is it Tim who is fighting Pac right now??A fight that Floyd should have took yrs ago??Is it me or is Bradley not very high on the P4P list with a chance to get even higher??Is it me or is Mayweather debating weather to fight Khan(a joke)or Maidana(the guy who was beat by the joke)??Am I the one bugging out or what??

                BTW,since you wanna talk about daring to be great..Why not bag on Floyd for not fighting Martinez or Lara??Two boxers in their prime..Did Floyd not dare to be great??Or do we only hold certain atg fighters,to atg standards..

                  Oh don't tell me you pretend that's his weight class aswell?

                  We know Mayweather is a Welterweight and that's his ideal weight class, the only time he fights above that is for very lucrative fights. He comes to the ring at 150 lbs.

                  Bradley is a WW. It's a completely different scenario and a fight that would most definitely happen.

                    No,I named a fighter within his stable(Lara)..Also named a fight that could have easily been made(Martinez)..Your attempt to nitpick to avoid the fact that Mayweather had/has stiff comp he did not fight,has also failed..

                      rome you really are not making any sense.

                      If tim were to become a free agent and negotiate a GBP deal, if his representatives didn't secure a guranatee for a floyd fight before signing it would be ther fault, not floyd.

                      Tim just negotiated a new deal with TR where he got a Manny fight. The first time he got a deal with TR, dunkin got him a manny fight.

                      WHat have you seen from GBP that suggests it would have been differetnt?
