Timothy Bradley: I'd beat the crap out of this (Amir Khan) guy

it was a business decision and if i was him, i would have done the same.

He is also not saying, “Me and Amir, we’re not fighting to prove to the boxing fans who the best is.” Bradley will fight Khan after Pacquiao.
.................................

What were your feelings with the Khan negotiations?

TIMOTHY BRADLEY: A part of me wanted to get in the ring and do what I had to do but I had a plan. If I had fought Amir Khan and beat him I don’t think it would have done anything for my career. A lot of people thought it would have been great but I didn’t think I was with the right promotional company. I felt like they didn’t push me to make me into a superstar, to promote me to not only the boxing fans but the crossover to the housewives that don’t work but love boxing. I never got that type of exposure. Top Rank brings that. If I fought Amir Khan with Top Rank I think it would be huge. You’d have the top promotional company advertising the fight, doing what they are supposed to do – spend the money to advertise the fight to make money and to make their fighter a superstar. Sitting back and thinking about it, my team and I made the right choice. I have never had the opportunity to fight on a huge mega-card like this. A month or two ago I just signed this contract with Top Rank and now I’ve got this opportunity to fight on Manny Pacquiao’s undercard as a co-main event. I am like “wow.” This is a completely different level. There a going to be millions of people around the world, not just boxing fans, watching this fight because of all the promotion going on. With Márquez, you have two great fighters that have met before and it’s the third meeting – they want to see who’s going to win this fight. And these fans are going to get a chance to see Timothy Bradley and they don’t know who Timothy Bradley is and have never seen me before but will now get a chance to see me fight. They will then say this guy is good and he should fight the top guys in the world.

How do you feel about the criticism?

TIMOTHY BRADLEY: It doesn’t bother me at all. Criticism doesn’t pay the bills. One day Amir Khan and I will get in the ring and settle it.

if people want to say that I ducked him. They can say whatever they want but I have a plan and a new team that is behind me and going to make Bradley a brand. Eventually, Amir and I will get it on.

 

He's decent, I don't see anything exceptional about him, but he's a good solid fighter...

 

big head alien butter who ducked khan.

 

That last bit is true, ****** was on the verge of delivering Bradley v Khan in England.

 

Tim puts his head inside and roughs them up with his short compact punches, giving no room to shoot back at. Somebody rangy and technical, with power and good mobility beats him. I don't know if it is Khan cause Bradley may hurt him and dominate the fight from that point on. Definitely, the guy is overrated and Maidana, Berto, Ortiz, Pac, Mayweather, someone of that level schools him if not knocks him out.

 

i liked him til his ugly showing against alexander.

 

Bradley refused to fight Pac.................

 

Best qualities are his stamina, recovery, and he shows an above average ring IQ. Solid fighter, but he's peaked. Doesn't have the upside physically to match up with the very top level of competition, and he knows it. Against most other fighters, he's a headache to deal with.

 

Didn't have a lot to lose in that department my friend.

 

How much stick would Khan get on this forum if he ever fought a guy like Casamayor? Atleast Khan always fight top 10 rated fighters. Not too many boxers do that these days.
