    Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe Bradley has a contract with HBO. Bob Arum has stated after the Bradley-Vargas fight that he'd be willing to pit his fighter against Mayweather.

    Bradley's fight with Marquez exceeded expectations with nearly 400,000 PPV buys. Mayweather will have to find a respectable opponent and a strong B side in order to break a million buys. I can't think of anyone else who fits the bill at the moment.

    The only roadblock I can think of that would prevent this fight from happening is Arum's lawsuit against Al Haymon (Mayweather's adviser).

    Thoughts?

    Bradley would be cool. Usually not my fighting style but I am a fan Bradley, he always brings 110%.

    Arum is suing Al Haymon/PBC, not Showtime. Mayweather is in desperate need of a credible opponent.

    Floyd ducked Bradley for years.

    I know fighting Berto sounds too much of a joke to be true, but Berto it is.

    Actually Berto is a better fight than Bradley. Bradley is a real cakewalk for Mayweather. I have no problem with either fight because they both could use a payday, maybe Berto more so than Bradley. After this, Floyd can get back on the grind and take Thurman to school then embarrass Brook. Phuck Pac. He needs a psychiatrist to deal with his lying and hallucinations.

    Bradley's resume is nowhere near as good as Floyd's. His two best wins at WW are Pacquiao and Marquez, two guys that Mayweather beat even more decisively.
