Why did Pacquiao pick Bradley over Khan (who brings more $$$$)?

[DeadLikeMe]

Pac a scared fraud coward. He fears the Halal Hammer and fights a guy who ducked Khan instead.

Fighting common opponents is a usual way to getting to fight the man that beat the man.

So what's your excuse Khan only cares about money or Khan doesn't care about money and he just simply wants to have the hardest fights which define your career legacy?

He doesn't care about legacy or he wouldn't be picking the **** opponents he has been. It was a long term cash grab, he knew the big Brook fight would still be there win or lose to Mayweather/Pacquiao but not the other way around. I'm glad it didn't work out for him.

Khan loves southpaws and used to school his ass in sparring.

Pac is a disgrace. Nobody wants to see another Bradley fight. The mans a puppet. Even for his final fight he can't get an appropriate opponent.

Khan hasn't earned a Pacquiao fight. He struggled against Algieri, who Pacquiao dominated.

Uhhh and Margarito coming off a loss and a 10 rounder did? Mosley coming off a loss and draw did? Clottey coming off a loss did?

Well Bradley is the WBO champion..Khan is?????????????

So, now its about the belts? I mean all they do collect dust, no? Arum just said Crawford isn't as marketable & Khan is on par if not more than Tim and isn't 0-2 vs Pac.

He will be making his biggest career purse, more than he would vs May-Pac, possibly more than he would vs the aforementioned names put together. Oh and a nice little title shot at a proper belt in an event where he will be the A-Side. Did I mention the part that it was his Option not B, but C. How many fighters are in that sort of position? It in fact worked out just fine.

After getting stopped at 140 Khan has made no effort to prove himself at 147, thinking that his popularity in countries that don't bring any money to the table will get him the big fights. Khan doesn't bring much more money to the table than Bradley at this point.

Bradley's second last opponent was coming up from JWW. At least Algieri had won a proper World title at 140 and beat a legit name in Provo. Should we really count Rios?


Alexander is another great opponent, Khan made it look easy, so now he is a bum.


The other candidate, Crawford's last 3 opponents are contenders like Jean and Dulorme where as the guys Khan beat are former champs who themselves hold wins over names.


There are some really lofty standards applied when it comes to Khan. Especially since, Pac's opponents like Margarito came off loss and 10 rounder or Clottey coming off a loss.

Why are you getting so defensive. Con is with Haymon. What are you still doing?

[Ray*]

Pac didn't pick sh3t, Bob Arum picks his next opponent and all Pac had to do is show up.

[OnePunch]

You have to understand that by making an in house fight
Arum gets 27% from pac and 27% from bradley win win for him
If it was khan he only gets 27 from manny since he doesn't own khan

uhmmmmmm, nope

[Slip Stream]

Khan brings nothing but a corset and panties, Manny, er um Arum had to go with Bradley. This is strictly a business decision plain and simple, which is why it probably tastes so sour....
