It was always going to be Bradley. More BS from Bob

[The tucker]

Bradley is not a bad fighter it's just people have no interest in seeing it for the 3rd time.

Manny has to fight a lot of rematches mostly because of the poor stable of fighters at top rank.

If manny continues to fight I guarantee he would have to fight algerie again if he is still signed to top rank.

So let's see if that true

Ratings:

Bradley vs. Rios 910k
Bradley vs. Vargas 1.1 mil
Bradley vs. Chaves 850k

Khan vs Algieri 1.1 mil
Khan vs Alexander 725k

Crawford vs. Jean 1.0 mil
Crawford vs.Dulorme 1.0 mil
Crawford vs Gamboa 1.2 mil

Numbers wise it's Crawford. Bradley is more well known because he's fought Manny twice and JMM once. Both fighters with strong fan bases.

Name recognition isn't a problem with Pacquiao. He did 350K with Algieri. That's low for Manny but a solid PPV number. You're telling me that networks would reject Crawford and Khan but accept Algieri?

It was always going to be Bradley.

so ****ing awesome


i wish 48 would just keep fighting like luisito espinoza

The only positive of this, is Manny can likely stick it to Teddy Atlas who hasn't been kind to him over the years.

Man that's sad if that is all people will have to hold onto

^^^^
this


even if Teddy ****s his pants from screaming at Tim, it's not worth $70



what a sham this is...NOONE wants to watch this ****

Oh for **** sake



I wanted the Khan fight to be honest.



I can no longer support Bob.

That might not be worth $70 but that would at least be worth a 20 spot with the fight being a -5 so you only net out a 55 dollar loss (like 85 for you with the California taxes).

yeah we all knew it was coming, teddy atlas will be the selling point "the new and improved tim Bradley who knocked out rios with atlas", Bradley will get another pay day, arum wins again with another in house fight, pac man doesn't really win anything IMO but it will be good to see a great warrior of our time have his last bout and of course another pay day

[bigjavi973]

Thats bs people know who amir khan is & watch as how media won't complain even once.

[Eff Pandas]

Arum said Crawford, who he promotes, and Khan, handled by Arum’s adversary Al Haymon, were rejected by cable and satellite distributors for not being “that well known yet.”

What kinda bs is this? And I'm not even talking about in the way TS ran with it. Can cable & satellite distributors just be like "nah...we don't wanna show that". Since when are cable & satellite distributors shutting things down like this to begin with. I thought they just took their cut, but if things ultimately don't make money vs what you spent its on you.

Plus Manny fought Chris Algieri on PPV about a year ago ffs. Algieri dreams of being Khan or Crawford popular. And Bhop & Dawson fought on PPV a few years back & made GGG vs Lemieux numbers seem like Tyson vs Lewis numbers.

Khan, Brook, Broner, Crawford, hell...even Malinaggi would have interested me more


this fight ****ing sucks

I agree, its not like the first 2 were super close, I would even be happy wit berto
