    I didn't disagree with Crawford or Vargas. I said whats what with that. And I agree this is a prospect roster that is open to Tim right now.

    But your logic jump is the bad troll part of what you are saying. Tim gots bigger sh^t going on in his own head then worrying about being reduced to prospect opponents. TR's roster is TR's roster. If you keep losing to certain guys & don't wanna fight your other best option this becomes your reality.

      Come on man, is this for real? Timothy Bradley fears no one. One of the biggest hearts you'll find.

The reality of seeing Pacquiao, who'd made Top Rank a fortune, get robbed in front of his face was the last straw.
        Bradley went out on top, only loss was to an ATG boxer and the man and his family are set for life.

              Man, overpay Haymon fighters fighting cab drivers and they'll start fighting once a year and talk about retiring. They don't even need super fights. They'll retire at the smell of $1 mil.

              Bradley has a current net worth of $20 million. Not to mention his wife becoming a manager taking over Dunkin's previous job.

                So it was either Jose Ramirez at 140 or retirement..........

                Bradley made the right choice.

                  Bradley retired because he knew he was going to get the call to fight this man here...



                  This is not uncharacteristic of Bradley to duck guys that fans think he'd beat. Mr. 'What-if-he-beats-me' ducked Khan because he was scared to lose and lose out on the 'May-Pac sweepstakes'.

                  He saw what Horn did to Pacquiao and knew he was getting the call next if Pac retired so he retired first to avoid losing and ruining his legacy.

                    Yet this poster fails to cite again because of his extreme bias
                    the massive inactivity going on in the Haymon camp. Fighters who barely makes more than $1 mil. Yet they fight once a year. Kills me.
                    That's the glaring contradiction. Millionaire Bradley gets criticized but not these inactive PBC fighters with virtually no valid reasons to like injuries, already wealthy like Tim, etc. Why they're not getting the same flak is beyond comprehension.
