    Was Bradley resigning with Top Rank and terrible move?

    He literally has no one else to fight and the only ww title he can contend for is the WBO, there are no top ww's with Top rank other then Manny and Juan and he has already fought both,who in the hell is he going to fight? He signed i guess thinking he would be defending his title but now he has not title

    Well he got big time money for the Pac rematch, and don't be surprised to see more big money in 2014 when they fight again for some odd reason.

    But he could have gotten big money fighting Mayweather, as well as other Golden Boy fighters from 140-147.

    So it probably was. He'll be reduced to Pac 3, Marquez 2, or other guys like Rios, Alvarado, and Vargas. Not exactly legit or good fights at this moment.

      TR doesn't have the big name WW, they're all on Showtime.

      Money wise, definitely

        Bradley will end up fighting Rios or the winner of JMM-Alvarado, then either fight Pac again or rematch Provodnikov.

        Bradley-Provo 2 is still a very good fight.

          Who would he fight at GBP?

          He'd have to rely on Mayweather and he is unreliable, the payday is overrated too ($3m for Guerrero? less for Maidana).

          Marquez, Pacquiao are much bigger fights than the likes of Shawn Porter and Keith Thurman.

            He's only re-signed for two years, and he got Pac out of it. Did he sign before or after JMM? If so he got that as well. I honestly don't think you're ever going to see Floyd want to get in the ring with him*, so he'll still have plenty of time to graze on the other side of the fence if he wants to. He's only 30.



            * Please don't read me saying that Floyd doesn't want to get into the ring with him as me saying that Bradley would beat Floyd, it just that I think Floyd would perceive it as too much risk for too little reward.

              This is the guy who ducked Khan for Pac.

              Don't let Bradley fool you. He wants the easiest path to the money. Boxing glory is irrelevant to him.

              That's why guys like Canelo and Kovalev who will fight anyone to prove they are the best is commendable. It's a rare thing these days.

                  yea, you're right...what a huge mistake...he shoulda gone to GBP instead...he really missed out on those big money fights vs Thurman or Broner

                    goldenboy has all the top fighters from 140-154 and there is no arguing that
