    When that fighter states he wants to fight Khan and trashes him in
    media outlets, etc. Then pussies out when a career high pay day
    is thrust upon him, I see why fans are all over this.

    What Bradleys pulling is whats wrong with boxing atm.
    Bradley isnt a smart guy, hes ruining the 'good guy who has a dip'
    image, puts in the work and gives his all. Now regardless, fans just
    see him as just another greedy fighter, yet to prove himself as top shelf,
    but wants to be paid like Floyd.

    Props to Khan, he should thank Bradley, might get a few cross over
    fans with this.

    Oh please. A fight between Bradley and Khan is better for boxing than Bradley and Pacquiao? You are full of ****. How much is Shaw paying you people?

    Bradley called him out after he had beat Alexander. Then Khan went back to fight in England and fought McCloskey. Did you criticized Khan for that?

    Now that Khan said he's ready, Bradley's contract with Shaw is running out. He wants to get rid of that contract so taking a July date with Khan doesn't work for him. Is this all Bradley's fault?

    HBO, Golden Boy and Khan had January to June to deal with Shaw and propose a fight with Bradley. They decided to do it in July because that gave Khan time to have a homecoming fight in England, even though that was after the date Bradley had agreed to extend his contract with Shaw until.

    Bradly is getting railroaded into extending his contract with Shaw to suit Khan and Golden Boy. He's been treated as 2nd class even though he was done much more in the division than Khan. Can you blame him for feeling like he's getting a raw deal?

    He gets the chance to unify. Should be more than enough reason IMO, especially when your getting 1.4 m(ish) per fight

    No reason the Khan fight wont be available later in the year.

    If he wanted to let his contract run out to improve things for himself, that's up to him. He didn't cause this situation.

    He's guaranteed a big purse for his next fight away, and if he goes to Top Rank then he could have a really bright future.

    Fans shouldn't be gettin on Timbo's case, look at all the guys he has faced, Bradley has already unified twice. Lets not forget he was even willing to take on Maidana before Marcos pulled out with injury, and then took on a world champion Alexander. He fears nobody at 140.

    Yeah they forget about all that when they call him a little ***** and ducker.

    The fact is, he's the main guy in that weightclass and Khan has been cherry picking his way to the top avoiding Alexander for example.
