Tim Bradley did the RIGHT thing! Period! Shut up Lazarus!

While I can't really fault Bradley for doing what is best for his career (and family), I'm also disappointed we missed out on Bradley-Khan.

Always sucks when you miss out on a fight between the top two guys in a division.

 

bradley would have got around 1.8 for khan, for manny most likely 2.5

 

I dont agree or disagree with you BUT your premise is wrong.

Khan vs Bradley could well have sold 200K in the UK

But Pacquiao vs Marquez wont sell more in the UK either it DEFINATELY wont sell 1.2 Million here.

If you are refering to USA PPV then ok I agree but thats not what you wrote.

 

well what do you think of floyd not fighting Pac then?

 

faster and bigger don't mean sh*t to Floyd. See Ortiz,Mosley for details.

 

100% exactly this all the way. Yeah money is vital money is important but in SPORT surely the number 1 aim is to be the best you can be, to go as far as you can go, reach your potential and make your mark in the history of the sport if you can.

Not **** all that off to make as much money as you can, thats what happens in the business world, this is the sporting world. It seriously makes me ****ing sick.

Im sure i remember once an England international footballer claimed he didnt get paid enough to play for England. They should of cut his ****ing legs off and never picked him again. Where is the pride and passion. ???

Bradley should WANT to face Khan and try to claim all the belts, become the undisbuted champion at 140, i gave him the benefit of the doubt with his contractual problems and fully believed hed get that sorted and THEN go chasing Khan. But he didnt. And still hasnt.

Whether hes just lookin for an excuse to duck Khan or whether hes just chasing the money, either way hes a ****ing ***** and both Khan or Pacman would rip him to pieces.

 

I will duck you for 5 to 8 million dollars.

anyways, they'll both end up fighting each other at 147 when mayweather and pac are gone..

 

what world are you living in?

 

I've expressed my disgust many times.

I've been pleading with everyone here to boycott all Floyd and Manny fights unless they are against each other, or Sergio.

Yes, I know it's fruitless, but I can try, right?

 

look, bradley is willing to ***** himself to fight the best. FLoyd just doesn't want to step up to the plate. Why should he? when there are just as many other Khans and Alexanders that will fight Floyd and sell?

its EASY f'n money for both Pac and FLoyd.

 

A less greedy one? It still happens in most other sports, its only Boxing where this is allowed to happen. Where legitimate opponants are overlooked because a shitter yet more financiably viable on is in the pipeline. In other sports match ups like Khan v Bradley, Pac v Mayweather, (and theres many more) would of been FORCED to happen for the good of the sport. Just not Boxing.

 

I really wanted to see Khan/Bradley at 140. The winner could be considered the best ever at 140. However Pacquiao is a huge step up from Khan.

 

where is this 5 million + figure coming from

 

This.

Ortiz (as champion) got what, $2.5 mil? It's a large step to assume Bradley will get $5-8 million.

Basically Bradley ducked Khan for a little more cash hoping to face a vastly more dangerous opponent.

Stupid move and complete duck.

 

Its IMPOSSIBLE to imagine that Bradley will get $5 Million especially as he has signed to Top Rank!

But the reason he did it is because Timothy needs the fan base BADLY he is not a star and while he is a good boxer his future is very uncertain if he cant build a fan base and fast!
