    Undefeated WBO junior welterweight champion Timothy Bradley is ready to step in against Floyd Mayweather Jr. or Manny Pacquiao should their fight against each other fall through. “Timothy is happy to defend his world title or move up to welterweight to challenge Pacquiao or Mayweather should their fight fall through,” stated Gary Shaw, Bradley’s co-promoter with Thompson Boxing Promotions. “There isn’t an active world champion who has been seen more on premium TV than Timothy. Since the day he won his first world title he has proven he is the goods. The shellacking he gave undefeated interim champion Lamont Peterson earlier this month proved Timothy is one of boxing’s elite fighters and a Top-10 pound for pounder. He’s ready, willing and able to fill the breach.” Bradley (25-0, 11 KOs) said he’s willing to take any random drug tests and is ready to fight in March, April or May next year.

    bradley should try to fight jmm...

    if i was bradley i would offer a 30-70 deal on hbo to fight jmm.... it would be a big risk to take but i think bradley beats marquez & its basically an investment anyways cause jmm has a name

    Bradley is a credit to the sport. Always in shape, always training hard and working hard, shows a lot of heart when he fights and willing to take on the best. His string of defences since taking the title from Witter has been pretty good.

    Hes not ready for either of them. It wont happen, Pac probably fight Yuri Foreman or Shane. Mayweather winner of shane/bereto unless he dodges again and makes this silly rumpur of matthew hatton happen. He does want to fight in the UK.

    Gary Shaw said Pacquiao would have to undergo olympic style drug testing in order to fight Bradley. The article is at the scene for boxing. So that means Bradley is not an option for Pac.

    I'm sure he would like to fight either of them but it's not gonna happen. I like Bradley, he doesnt talk much **** and he's fighting good match ups.

    He will be lucky to get a shot at pac. He probably wish for such a payday. This drug test thing is tainting pacs image. Cant just start requesting it because he is moving up and beating everyone unless they agree to make it compulsary from now on for all fights.

    Yeah he would rather make way less money fighting Alexander or whoever than fight Pac if he doesnt take blood tests,specialy since hes promoted by Shaw a guy that couldnt care less about money:bart

    i think bradley at this point is too big a risk for pacman @ 140
    and bradley is a waste of time financially @ this point

    I'm just repeating what Shaw said. It doesn't matter because Pacquiao isn't going to fight Bradley anyway. Speaking of Alexander though, he said he'll fight Pac without a blood test. Maybe Pacquiao can go that rout.
