Tim Bradley DID NOT duck Khan.

[Box-Office]

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.

What a poor attempt to defend Bradley's duck.

There was an "unofficial" tournament going on where the winner of Khan-Maidana and Bradley-Alexander would crown an undisputed champion at 140lbs. So, the fact is at the time it was the most demanded fight and a realistic one as it lacked the promotional problems of Mayweather-Pacquiao until of course later on. Bradley instead DUCKED Khan and waited for the Pacquiao call. Good for Bradley as it worked out for him, but that doesnt change the fact Bradley ducked Khan.

This is at the peak of his ducking when he decided to show face in public.

And then he fought Pac after that. Twice.

He's not afraid of Pacquiao, Provodnikov, or Marquez...but he's afraid of Khan? That makes no sense.

Stop trolling. You know fine well anyone would face Manny Pacquaio or Mayweather or Marquez. No one is going to turn down these fights.

It's not about being "afraid" of Khan. It was about being afraid of taking a loss to Khan and then not getting the fights you just mentioned. Khan beats his ass in 2011 and he goes back to ESPN most likely. Tim Bradley is not a marketable fighter with a loss on his record.

Off topic a bit, but Marquez has turned down Khan in the past. People dont like to bring that up.

Pretty much took the words off my keyboard.

Off topic a bit, but I really like Frampton. Kid is a good one. Crafty, can crack, like his work to the body. I think he beats LSC.

He pretty much did the same thing as Bradley. He fought guys like Katsidis and Likar Ramos instead of Khan, waiting for the Pacquaio fight to land in his lap.

Tim Bradley ducked Khan. He openly admitted to be afraid of his deal if he lost.

[Roy Jones Jnr]

It was a blatant and clear as can be duck.

Lest we forget that at the time Khan was considered the top dog at 140 by many of the same fickle 'tards who now call him stuff such as "the worst boxer in the history of boxing" and the like.

Its all well and good trying to use hindsight to try and make excuses for the duck but it ain't gonna work unfortunately for you ShoulderRoll pal, you pathetic weasel.

Shameful attempt at trying to justify a clear and absolute duck by Bradley, a fighter whom I very much admire and respect even if he did duck Khan.
