    Bradley's cashing out the HBO deal first with a low risk fight and then is out looking for May or Pac and if these won't happen, he fights Khan.

    This is the way I see this. He's following the money trail, not exactly ducking anybody.

    And he's right about the Khan -fight. IMO Bradley would be 40-60 underdog against Khan

    If he signs with Top Rank he will get the money fight he is looking for with Pacquiao but he has to make sure he lose the fight. He will get a 2 fight deal like Mosley!!! smh!!!:-:)-(

    I think the fact that TB says "what if i lose?" speaks volumes.

    I don't like this move for Bradley he should have fought Khan and worried about the rest later.

    Bradley is 27, not 39, I doubt Top Rank view it the same as signing Mosley.

    If Bradley beat Khan, he'd be in line for Pac. Pac would want to avenge his friends loss.

    If he beats Khan he moves a step closer.

    Does this idiot actually believe he's in the Pacquaio 'sweepstakes'? He's a young, live opponent, and therefore Pacquiao won't fight him in the first place so he might aswell make that Khan fight.

    Kendal Holt and Devon Alexander were both more dangerous fighters then Amir Khan IMO though Khan is more skilled. Bradley didn't really want to fight Alexander when he did either and he may have been right.

    Its smarter businessto fight Khan now though. With Khan the fight would do good sales since he has that big UK following. It would be better to u se those sales to drive up the price when negotiating with Pac or May. Without that Pac and Mayweather are going to **** him on the negotiation table.

    Then there is the risk that Khan &/or Ortiz get the fights with Mayweather & Pac since they may be more popular and have more to offer.

    :lol: Pac could very well fight him next , or Ortiz. And Bradley isn't no live opponent. He'll get his ass knocked out in quick fashion against Pacquiao. If the competition out there wasn't so bleak looking, he wouldn't be anywhere close to the Pacquiao sweepstakes .
