    The wbc should say this: fight khan or your belt goes to someone else... simple as that.
    If he really cares about it he will fight khan, 1.5+ mil money is very good money for timmy, if he gets by khan then yes he deserves the big money. but he doesnt at this point.

    Haha, good one...

    Yeah, I think Bradley's promotional issues hampered the "non-fight" more than people like to admit (I think this is the case in most/all "non-fights").

    I do think Bradley is no duck, as evidenced by his signing to fight Maidana at a time when Khan was not; Maidana withdrew a couple weeks after signing the contract and minimal promotions.

    And though the dimensions are all wrong for him, I will still pick at this time Bradley to defeat Khan in a close one.

    Maybe being stripped/Khan being listed as #1 by Ring/People constantly crying about him not fighting Khan is finally getting to him enough for him to say **** it and fight Khan next. I still don't see why he can't chase a Manny money fight like everyone else has just because he wasn't a top fighter YEARS ago. But eh, if it'll get everyone to stop bitching fight him now Bradley.

    Could be like the poster above said as well, having a lot to do with promotional issues. (Which posters on here seem to act like don't exist and it's ONLY a boxer trying to duck another. Shameful **** honestly, they're getting hit in the face for a living not you.)

    yeah the whole ducking khan thing was completly out of character for bradly. he was the guy who will fight anyone, and who was in the sport for the right reasons ect. suddenly he becomes a cowerd and a bum..... im not sure what his real reasons were for not fighting khan. i guess he worked hard to build his legacy up to this point and didnt want to risk it in a fight he couldn't see himself winning.

    Sign the fight Bradley. I wanna see Khan unify the titles and possibly win fighter of the year already.

    He should fight maidana but I even think he will duck that.

    Maybe he's realizing that it's a PR nightmare for him if he doesn't fight Khan, and that would mean he'd have to take less if he did land a Pacweather fight as people wouldn't be as interested in that matchup with the unfinished business at 140.

    I have to say, I'm surprised the backlash has been as swift as it has. Tim can say he doesn't care about the talk, but I'm not so sure his skin's that thick. If it gets us to Bradley-Khan, it's for the best anyways. The winner will have definitely earned their shot to try and knock off one of the kingpins, and the resulting massive payday.

    If he does take this fight, then massive credit to the boxing community. As soon as Bradley gave off the idea he won't be facing Khan, the backlash was swift and hard. Nobody, from the fans to the boxing experts, found his excuses good enough, and immediately blasted him for not staying true to his word.
