    It's quite simple, really.

    Arum must demonstrate to Crawford (his client) that he's trying to land him the biggest fights available, so he tells him that he'll try and make the Pac fight happen. The problem is Arum doesn't really want to risk Crawford losing to Pac and thus jeopardize his future earning potential for Top Rank. So he makes Crawford one of multiple options available to Pac but persuades Pac to fight Bradley. That way it appears to Crawford that Arum did his job.

    All in a days work for a sleazy promoter.

    Bradley 100% ducked Khan at 40 but, somehow arum fought for his pathetic ranking at 47.. I agree 100% TB wanterior NO part of khan..

    ok so bradley ducked khan for Pac(who at that time was the pound4pound king and was a much tougher fight)

    bradley fought manny pacquiao p4p king 2012 instead of amir khan

    Bob "yesterday I was lying, today I'm telling the truth" Arum being decidedly disingenuous here.
