    Bradley needs to shut up and fight his father Devon

    I like Bradley. I really like him a lot. Him and Devon are the best rep for 140. Nevertheless, he needs to STFU. I know he wants some money fight. Yeah, Khan is protected. He is also much younger with far fewer rounds both in pro and amateur matches. It is not Khan's fault Bradley is considered not the best match up in the business of boxing.

    every other day there is a post of Bradley saying " **** this mother****er he is a chump"
    or something to that effect... when you hear his interviews he is a humble guy and seems composed... where these quotes come from is beyond me.

    Khan is definately being protected. GBP is already overpaying him. They can't afford to have him lose any of his marketability from him taking another loss. GBP is taking a page straight out of the Top Rank handbook. Expect Khan to be fed a steady diet of no hopers and/or other GBP fighters.

    protected Yes. Overpaid maybe?

    There's about how many pakistanis in the US and Britain alone to dish out money to see this guy fight?

    It all comes down to money. He's got tons of potential. Throwing him in there with a dangeorus guy like Bradley is suicide.

    IMO, overall Bradley has taken on better challenges relative to their skill set. I am not a Khan hater like many here. I think it is misplaced considering how young he is. Many are just pissed he getting a lot of attention for some one still developing. As they say, hate the game not the player.

    The test is always this: switch the resumes around and imagine what people would say then.

    If Bradley had beaten Kotelnik and Malignaggi and Khan had beaten Witter, Holt and Peterson....

    then the same people would still be calling Khan protected.

    You can't call someone's bluff if you leave the casino all the top players are in and go uphill to feast on the fishes, if you know what I mean. Lol.

    There were less than 4,000 tickets sold to Khan's fight against Malignaggi. Khan is not a draw in the U.S

    Campbell was Bradley's mando, Witter was the WBC champ when Bradley challenged for Witter's title and Bradley was like an 8-1 undergog, and Peterson was another mando as well. Bradley is not fighting handpicked guys. Witter, Peterson, Holt, and Campbell are all good fighters.

    Bradley has already been a unified champ and beaten several top 10 guys. Ortiz is a rebuilding project right now. Bradley would jump on that fight in a heartbeat, but there's no way GBP is going to let that happen right now. Bradley was actually supposed to fight Maidana, and Maidana pulled out of the fight. The fight with Alexander does need to happen, and it looks like it will happen within the next year.

    Campbell wasn't a mandatory, he'd never fought at the weight before.
