    I wonder if this guy regrets his decision to sign there. I'm sure he did make great money for the Pacquiao fight. But in the biggest "win" of his career, it has done nothing positive for him. His manager says he's injured and his promoter says he's injured, but Bradley himself disputes that. Bradley has seemed to be at least in the public eye, a pretty decent guy. But he seems to be realizing the type of people he's with now.

    There's so many tantalizing fights for him but it just doesnt seem to be getting through for him...

    vs JMM
    vs Brook
    vs Cotto
    vs Floyd
    vs Pac II
    vs Alexander II
    vs Garcia
    vs Rios

    not in any particular order

    at the end of the day unless he fought mayweather he would have had to fight 5 TIMES just to equal the paycheaque he got taking on manny

    he also got a title out of it (even if it was a robbery), it gives people a reason to chase him and now he has the ball in his court

    lastly people ****ING HATE HIM now and will tune in to watch him hopefully loose

    id say any press is good press and timbos decision to fight manny is def paying off

    He needs to move past pacquiao and fight mayweather jr.

    Any deal with TR is better than Gary shaw.

    He made 5 million in his fight with pacman, it was the best decision he made in his life.

    In Tim's situation is was merely a matter of "be careful what you wish for-it might just happen".He got his payday,now he has to start over and be satisfied with that.He can't draw flies.

    If Bradley were a decent guy he would've admitted he clearly got the **** beat out of him by Pacquiao. His problem is that people are now realizing he is a piece of ****.

    nothing to do with commentary. everyone in press row and there live though Manny won comfortably.

    Plenty of options for TImmy, but that's the problem once fighters earn big money, they turn into once a year fighters.

    Bradley put a clinic on Manny and scared the world.

    I hope he forces arum's hand and makes a Floyd fight, but it looks like Hayman and co are trying to freeze his ass out of the elite arena.

    Bradley has to do something though. I hope he fight someone like Rios, Matthaysse, Garcia, or a 147 fighter.

    one of the worst things that happened in boxing in this century imo...

    Bradley was clearly robbed from a great win by media, TR and Pac fans... They just ignored what happened and all act as if Pac completely beat the **** out of him and that the decision was outrageous..

    Seriously, i'm a fan of neither.. i've seen the fight 3 times.. and it just was a damn close fight.. Where Bradley had great defense and made Pac looked sloppy as hell.
