    Well it's true. Bradley would know. He publicly ducked Amir Khan when Khan was the man to beat at 140. His reasoning for not fighting Khan, in his own words were: I am afraid to lose and miss out on the Pacquiao/Mayweather sweepstakes.

    That's not an attack, that is recounting something that actually happened and was literally said.

    So yeah, Bradley knows what Spence is doing because he did it too I suppose.

        If free to choose any opponent at 147, I'm pretty sure both Spence and Crawford would choose Pacquiao for that very reason: $$$$$
        Pac vs Jr Spence is a very physically safe fight for Pac whereas, T Crawford vs Pac would be physically damaging with long term serious effects on Pac, just as if Jr Spence vs T Crawford.... there's reason behind Jr Spence ducking TC... Jr already knows what would happen..

            Well i'm not Errol Spence, you will have to ask him that. I'm talking about what has taken place. Anything said about Spence and Crawford at this point are just opinions. Bradley's situation with Khan is not an opinion, they are events and words that took place/were said.

            Neither Spence or Crawford have said they would not fight eachother out of fear of losing. So I can't speak on them.

                But that’s not the real reason. Arum cooked up the Bradley-PAC scores and we got a trilogy where he made a lot of dollars.
                Had Bradley fought Khan and lost, that would have been the end of it.

                Arum is a crook just like all his cousins that run the financial sector, media, health care, insurance, entertainment etc.

                  Why does Crawford care about getting more money instead of just accepting the fair 60-40 purse split to make the fight and chase greatness?

                      Why do you care is a better question.
