    RT @danrafaelespn: Left out in the cold in all of the recent moves: Tim Bradley. Mayweather has Ortiz, Pacquiao has Marquez and Khan has Judah.

    So true it seems Bradley is the biggest looser here, Ortiz is fight Mayweather, Pacquaio Marquez and Khan gets Judah, Bradley isnt fighting anyone and turned down career high pay day, He should have just taken the fight with Khan beaten him and left Shaw.

    Instead Bradley comes out with lines like "What if i loose? Im out of the Mayweather or Pacquaio sweepstakes" well Timmy you are already clearly out of the sweepstakes for fighting them.

    Poor poor Bradley.

    He;s banked on the chance of Khan/Bradley being worth a whole lot more in the future, but if Khan loses to Judah, he can kiss goodbye to that and he now hasn't got an opponent till potentially, the end of the year.

    Bradley could move up and fight Berto. He'll beat him, then put himself in a great position to challenge any of the Welterweights after they fight.

    No doubt Floyd would be willing to fight him (easyish money). Arum is happy to feed Manny any small guy willing to fight over 140, or he can fight Zab or Khan at 140 should he decide to take a 'keep busy' fight.

    I would say Kotelnik for him next myself. Wait for the winner of Khan-Judah :yep

    Bradley-Kotelnik would be a great fight. He beat Alexander for me, plus he's beaten Maidana (close but clear). Good fighter, good resume, and he could give Timmy some problems since he's technically sound and has good timing and excellent technique.

    Good thinking, Flea!

    Kendall Holt VS Bradley again? That could be a viable option.

    Another good shout, as well as Kotelnik, see below for other decent options (IMO) :good

    :yep They can do it at 147 for comforts sake, although I reckon Holt could still make 140 (a hunch) I'm constantly banging the drum for Holt, another good shout, we'll be able to see whether Holt ditched his jab or whether Timmy took it away :thumbsup

    That was exactly my thinking DFT, as well as being the only top five guy without a fight (until Griff pointed out Maidana!!!) :good

    Sorry, you deed it :deal

    It's worked out brilliantly. I don't enjoy watching Bradley's fights

    Bradley likes taking people's 0's, why not Olesugun?

    Maidana is a better fight though.

    Although ideally i'd like him to move up to welter and fight Special K

    Not a fan of Holyfield, Hagler or B-Hop either then? ;-)
