    There's another recent video where he's swamped by reporters in the Philippines, and he's briefly summarising the strategy for this fight with perfect non-broken English. He didn't pause with his usual "umm" and "arr" or anything.

    He was, however, saying the same words he always says - he is a strong opponent, he likes to come forward, fight toe-to-toe, I just have to train hard and give the fans what the want, etc. That's probably why he spoke them so fluently. They're almost rehearsed now. Ask him questions where he has to give different answers with different words, he'll probably go back to umm'ing and arr'ing.

    I haven't seen much garbage being posted in this forum since Gander calmed down, but now you have arrived.

    Exactly.

    Bradley getting paid 5 million.

    And Khan? He aint even got an opponent, he's still fighting at 140 and he wants to retire in a few years :lol:

    Bradley had the last laugh.

    Oh, and Bradley's "I wanna' feel the pain bla bla bla" is so forced. Trying hard to be dramatic and sell the fight.

    It's gonna' be a real ugly affair - nowhere near as entertaining or pleasing to watch as Mayweather and Cotto - but I am really looking forward to it.

    I think there will be drama though, Bradley has a real chance at the upset. Bradley will definitely make it ugly. There will be cuts and clinching.

    But it's not exactly a case of Bradley fighting Pacquiao INSTEAD of Khan, is it. It was Bradley ducking Khan to remain undefeated, and to be picked by Pacquiao a year AFTER he would have fought Khan.

    If Khan refused to fight Bradley, sat safely on his butt, fought only a non-threatening opponent in the fall and remained the prime candidate to face Floyd in May 5th, would we be saying he fought Mayweather INSTEAD of Bradley? Of course not.

    Amir needs to calm his AZZ down and have one fight at 147 before worrying about Mayweather.

    Truf, right there. Amir needs to wait as long as he can before facing him. Hope he suddenly grows old or something.

    He has nothing to worry about with bradley, people like floyd and marquez are guys he is scared shitless of.

    Yeah that's true, Khan went by the right way but it's a shame boxing doesn't work like that anymore.

    I don't ever see Khan facing Floyd now tbh.
