    Good post and I agree: If GBP takes JMM off the table for this November, look for Pac/Bradley in November, then Pac/JMM III after that fight (if Pac beats Bradley).

    Yeah what's up with that. :patsch

    Although he might really be entertaining the idea of a Pacquiao fight but we know Arum is just tying to make hype eventually Manny will fight JMM. Bradley don't get your hopes up and just face Khan.

    Can't blame Bradley. He's only waiting until Monday when GBP will decide on Marquez/Pac. If GBP gets Marquez back, Bradley gets the fight with Pac which I like better than Marquez.

    khan and pac are trained by the same trainer and will be on the same page if khan has asked him for a fight...do you think pac will also offer Bradley a fight while hes mulling over the khan fight?
    if bradley was smart, he would fight khan, hope to beat him, and it sets up a pac fight for beating his stablemate...

    I dunno, I don't think Roach or even Manny were too crazy about their last two fights, but that didn't stop them from getting made. They'll probably go along with whatever Arum says.

    It's probably not up to Pac to decide who gets offered a fight. Arum is pulling the strings, and Pac seems like an obedient employee to some extent.

    Pac and Khan might have a nice professional relationship due to Roach, but boxing is a business. Pac has to make that money since he has said he won't fight for much longer. After last Saturday, he will have to redeem himself to the fans to keep that crowd buying his fights and filling his pockets.

    Just business, nothing personal towards Khan.

    Tough break. Sucks very much, was really looking forward to this fight. Hopefully, Bradley will be able to fight Pacquiao. That would be a great alternative bout.

    I think JMM will fight Pac even if Pac were to lose. JMM is relentless in calling out Pac at every chance he gets. At some point it's probably not about the money, but more about pride and getting some closure.

    That's just my thoughts on it. Only JMM knows what goes through his head.

    No, Bradley had a $1.5M guaranteed purse for his next fight courtesy of Kerry Davis. It means he could fight a tomato can in front of a half-empty casino and laugh his way to the nearest bank all on the same day. If you were Bradley, why would you face Khan and work your butt off when there is guaranteed money waiting for you already?
