Bradley/his TR contract
Collapse
-
So I've probably made about 4-5 threads about Tim Bradley and his contract with Top Rank over the last 4-5 years, pretty much the same thing was said in this thread as those.
"Bradley has done well for himself doe" "Arum treating him good doe" and etc
For once I can agree that he should just stay with Top Rank, he's past his prime, 3 losses on his record, 1 draw to a C level fighter.
There once was a time when I felt like Bradley could easily have cleaned out Haymon and Golden Boy stable, with the exception of Pac and Floyd he would have been unstoppable, but now time has truly passed.
So I can say I no longer care to see him in the ring with non of the young lions over at PBC or such.

put it this way, if u got promoted at work and now your doing easy work and getting pay double, are you gonna go out of your way to find more work to do? no!
bradley is in a position where he's making good money regardless of who he's fighting. so i dont think he's gonna leave top rank just so he can fight different opponents and possibly get pay less in return.
money is the key, up and coming fighters will say its not about the money and that they want to fight the best to prove that they're the best but once they start making that money, everything changes.

Originally posted by WSSD View Posti think bradley is still very capable of beating a lot and maybe even clean out the PBC fighters. bradley loss to manny so u shouldnt take too much away from that. look at what bradley did to regular guys like rios. people like to say its because thats rios, but who has done that to rios though? style makes fight. sure, bradley looked bad against a few fighters with a lesser name but thats because of the style match up.
It's just that people were so concerned about Bradleys pockets instead of daring him to be great like they dared Floyd, Pac, and Bradley could have been a ATG without beating a Floyd or Pac.
Now he is more of a legend, maybe hall of famer
Just not sure he wants any problems with the Spence's, Brooks and maybe even Khans of the world. Not at this age and stage of his career.

I guess the most I can hope for is Brook. There's no-one in the TR stable that'll earn him a big payday.

What should he have done? Not fought the best opposition, which is what Thurman and Gracia have been doing for years now?
