    Oh and the nobody in 5 fights has made aboit 19mill dollars..Not bad for a guy who can't sell..
    How much is he getting for the fight against Chaves? He's fighting in some shopping centre whilst Khan is headlining the MGM Grand. He doesn't sell on his own.

    Bradley lucked out. No one is dis*****g that. He got rewarded well for being a complete pu.ssy and ducking Khan.

    1. He lucked out when Marquez, Cotto etc turned down the Pacquaio fight and he got it.

    2.He got one of the worst decisions in boxing history to get a win over Pacquaio on his record.

    3. He was lucky to escape without brain damage and get another controversial decision against Provodnikov

    4. Marquez inexplicably turned down a career high purse to fight Pacquaio in a 5th fight and took on Bradley for far less money. Wtf?!!

    5. They somehow managed to make a rematch with Pacquaio based on the ridiculous robbery in the first fight.

    I've literally never seen a fighter get such a string of good fortune in all the years I've watched boxing. I'm not even mad at him, I wish I was that lucky.

          I'm lost now.

          Are you saying Cotto wasn't the first option? Because he definitely was.

          That's factual.

            No it's not,things are said in the nego process that are not true..Why would they ever wanna put that fight back on??Pac beat the hell out of Cotto and the fight was not competitive..Why did they offer Cotto the fight at a catch weight and made no attempts at nego the weight..Dude clear use of Cotto as leverage..

              Miguel Cotto.....the 3rd biggest draw in boxing.....was never really an option for a PPV fight with Pacquaio.

              It was all a huge ploy to entice Timothy "I sold 339 tickets in my last fight" Bradley into the fight.

              Didn't you know?

                Why would they use Cotto as leverage, they don't need any leverage, they're the second biggest draw in Boxing and one of the biggest draws in boxing history.

                Cotto was obviously the most lucrative fight out of the options, he was beaten badly the first time but Cotto is always going to sell.

                Bradley wasn't the first option, I don't think he was even the second option.

                  My head hurts

                  Cotto was first option, right? That was public I'm sure?

                      The earning potential of a fighter has nothing to do with putting together a PPV fight.
