Tim Bradley DID NOT duck Khan.

[IMDAZED]

Yep and if one of those ways was a robbery, then the man would state that.

Men usually say exactly what they mean.

He did. Doesn't mean we have the right to decide what he means. We have our opinions.

but but but what if I lose?

He chose instead to sign with Top Rank in order to chase a Pacquiao fight. Since Pac is a tougher opponent and also a bigger payday in no way can anyone say that Bradley was "ducking" Amir Khan.

And Tim has now managed to get not one but two big career paydays against Pac so he obviously made the right move.

We know this. Dirk Diggler UK and BOX Office will never agree. The funny thing is, Bradley would have beaten Khan then, and he would now today as well.

Not exactly funny since, he never proved it. I actually respect Tim a lot, so its not some blind hatred towards him, but he ducked Khan and thats that. Just because it worked out well for Tim doesn't change that fact.

If he didnt duck Khan, im sure you would also agree that Khan didnt duck Alexander?

This grows tiresome.

Get over yourselves.

The whole "duck" thing is moronic.

Unless one of the peanut gallery is privy to the negotiations at an intimate level, you all are just circle jerking.

It's pretty obvious that he did? He admit this himself. He asked for the fight, accuse of being ducked by Khan, got offered the fight, stall and said "What if I lose". It worked out for him in the end but that doesn't change the fact that he ducked the fight.

So what is your answer to this?

If Khan didnt duck Alexander, im sure you would also agree that Bradly didnt duck Khan.

Khan did duck Alexander for a Floyd shot just like Bradley did with Khan. It worked out for one and not the other.

Im just intrigued by the hypocrisy on this forum where Bradley's duck is simply labelled a business move.

Just wanted to add some facts..

Bradley called out Pac in 2009 when Pac was the Champion at 140lb..



Now this happen while this had also happened within the same yr..



We move on,Bradley had beat Abregu and Alexander had beat Kotelnik..Khan had beat Paulie M..After the fight(since we like to bring up the what if I lose comment)Khan clearly say's..I'll fight Maidana Bradley and Alexander can fight,then the winners will fight each other..He then turns around and fights Mccloskey..Where he came in from??Oh that's right,that fight came with a 3 fight deal..Meanwhile they expected Bradley to take a Khan fight with no insurances while Khan just got a 3 fight deal..

It's clear that TR offered Bradley more then one fight..While Shaw and GBP did not..It's clear he was on the top of the list(being Cotto said he would not fight Pac again,and Pac did not wanna fight Marquez again)to fight Pac..It's clear Bob had showed interest in Bradley before signing him and said as much..

It's clearly not a duck,and why no mention of Khan fighting Mccloskey instead of doing what he said he'd do??Oh and the suppose Mayweather fight,if Khan could have fought Mayweather what happened??Why did that fight not go down yet??Oh that's right the set backs..Losing to Peterson(who Bradley dominated btw)and getting his lights turned out by Garcia..Two fighters everyone and their mothers said was not even in Khans class(some of those same posters I see in this thread funny)..Bradley made a very good busniess decision for himself..Deal with it..Also deal with the fact,Khan fighting Mccloskey open the door for Bradley to not have to fight him..If he'd just went right to the fight with Bradley,and then Bradley ducked him fine..I would agree..To expect Bradley to sign a extension and go into the unknown not knowing,while Khan had a three fight deal(worth close to 4 mill)is not fair and very short sighted..Just thought I'd add my 2 cents..

Oh and the suppose Mayweather fight,if Khan could have fought Mayweather what happened??Why did that fight not go down yet??

Probably because he had his career derailed by shady officiating, judging and a fighter on performance enhancing drugs.

You're pretty naive if you think Khan wasn't in line to face Mayweather. Golden Boy want that fight now but you don't think they wanted it in 2011 when Khan was at the height of his career?

Khan was willing to put that on the line against Bradley. Shame it didn't work the other way.
