Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: Talks Ongoing WIth Al Haymon For Possible Fights

[Jsmooth9876]

Timothy Bradley loss 2 of the three fights with Pacquiao, has no home market to speak of where he sells tickets, and fights for Bob Arum.

Robert Guerrero, at the start of PBC, had just taken the L to Floyd after going 8 years undefeated, fought in a TV-friendly style, had yet to ever have been stopped, and was a Mexican American fighter that the CA Latin American audience had come to know.

not my fault that you've got rose-colored glasses on; I've never seen someone swallow down the HBO propaganda so hard.

Bradley has wins over Marquez,Vargas,Pacquaio,Ruslan,Rios,Alexander, Witter,Peterson,Abregu...

Guerrero has Audin,Katsidis, Berto .... Lol....I like Guerrero but you're a moron for even making that comparison....

Bradley doesn't sell tickets anywhere; Robert Guerrero (by the default of simply being from NorCal and Mexican) can help sell tickets all over California.

Beyond that, keep things as apples to apples as possible; Timothy Bradley moved up to 147 June 2012, while Robert Guerrero made the move July 2012. Who have the fought:

-Guerrero: Aydin, Berto, Floyd, Kamegai, Thurman, Martinez, Garcia
-Bradley: Pacquiao, Provodnikov, Marquez, Pacquiao, Chaves, Vargas, Rios, Pacquiao

No one is saying that Timothy Bradley is a lesser fighter than Robert Guerrero; I'm just explicitly making the point that, for the cost of Timothy Bradley's $2m guarantee, there are very few matchups in the Haymon orbit where it'd be worth it to bring in Tim Bradley, with Spence's 1st title defense literally being the only example I've been able to come up with.
