Bradley should get a shot at the Alexander-Brook winner. Actually it should be the other way around, the winner gets a shot at Bradley. See, look what Bradley's under-promotion has done to people's perception
Bob gave Bradley the gift of the century! He gave him a win he clearly didn't deserve in the Pacquiao fight. I still shake my head today when I think about that decision... When you hear Bradley fans saying their fighter lost before the decision was read you know it was a bogus decision.. Boxing is soo dirty and corrupt.. It literally makes me sick!
I wanna see JMM fight Bradley.. Would be an interesting fight! Styles make fights.. I bet JMM loses when Pac clearly won!
This is becoming a weird situation here are my thoughts: Tim may have been promised by Bob Arum that if he makes the fight interesting a rematch is a given, So manny basically beat Tim up however, Tim got the win so Tim Bradley - "Hey Bob I did something even better than making it interesting the Judges say I won now how about that rematch, Pacquiao just told me it depends on my promoter which is you" Bob Arum - Yea sure you did, even Stevie Wonder can see you lost bruh, NEXT, but don't worry I have the perfect opponent for you" Tim Bradley - "Thank you Arum I know you will hook me up with the right opponent " Few months later.... Bob Arum - "Hey Tim, you ready to get this paper? you ready to get this work?" Tim Bradley - "Hell yea, I'm listening " :yep Bob Arum - "Lamont Peterson for 2 mill in FL excited" Tim Bradley - "Wait a sec..... I made 5 for Pacquiao, I already beat this dude, and Vegas has more money than FL, and plus didn't he take PED's what gives?" Bob Arum - "First off dude is as clean as Margarito, second off you did horrible against Pacquiao, and third off you have to work your way up, take it or leave it Tim?" Tim Bradley - "Man forget it" (hands up phone) Knowing that he probably will not secure a Pacquiao rematch he turns to Marquez, Tim Trys to get the fight by taking matters into his own hands Tim Bradley - "Lets fight I beat Pacquiao lets go" Juan Manual Marquez - " You really thought you won?, I'm going to fight Pacquiao make more money and beat him more convincetly than you will see you in the HOF *****" Marquez goes on to KO Pacquiao by a devastating fashion Tim Bradley - :twisted::twisted: Meanwhile in the Bradley household Bradley wife-"Tim don't you think its time to hit up Bob for your next fight all you been doing since you been here is playing Madden & NBA 2K" Tim Bradley "I will call him next month" Bradley hits up Bob arum a month later Tim Bradley - "Yo Bob, my wife is tripping talking about I need to fight and shes tired of looking at me what you got for me Pacquiao 2? Marquez? hell I'll even take Rios, just give me somebody" Bob Arum- "Hey Tim, hows it going can I interest you in a fight between yourself and Gamboa, My buddy 50 cent is promoting it and you will get a free pair of SMS headphones on the house what do you say? Tim Bradley - "But Gamboa is not as huge of a draw as Marquez, Pacquiao or Mayweather :twisted: " Bob Arum - Well again Tim to quote my good friend 50 Cent "hate it or love it the under dog's on top, and i'm gon shine homie until my heart stop" Calls Mayweather Tim Bradley "Aye Bruh now how did you get out of Top Rank again?" Floyd Mayweather "All roads leads to Floyd Mayweather, I aint telling you nothing Al Haymon and leonard Ellerbe handled that" Tim Bradley - ":twisted::|"
Dont care to see Alexander vs Bradley 2, Devon quit the first time out was getting broke down looked for a way out and as soon as it happened he took full advantage of it. How can you get butted on one eye, and claim your other eye is the one thats hurt? :-(
Yea, it's more if Brook wins, but whoever wins out of that is defo in the mix of good opponent choices. I still prefer JMM-Bradley over everything but sadly that fight's being blocked as well
Marquez will knock out Pacquiao again and Arum likely tries to talk Juan into a fight with Rios or Bradley I hope its Bradley but I wouldnt mind Rios either.
I don't think he'll knock him out again, probly a decision, depends how Pac takes the KO. Jones was utterly gunshy in the third Tarver fight in fear of a KO. Rios would be an ok match but only on a war/young-old perspective, whereas Bradley is the more competitive matchup
I liked it. You could have done more with Bradley's wife's character arc but otherwise it was like something straight outta Raging Bull.
Not signing with Top Rank- 1.3 million per fight on HBO. That is the official number that was in his contract. After signing with Top Rank- 1.1 million for Casamayor. 5+ million for Pacquiao on a headlining, 700k selling PPV. I don't see what's so hard to understand here. Signing with Top Rank was the best move he's made in his career. He'd have to fight six times (3 years) to make the same amount he made fighting twice (just over a year) with Top Rank... Of course, this is assuming that he does fight again at the old Bradley frequency, which wasn't ever frequent to begin with.
