    Scene it.

    So let's recap -- Bradley thoroughly dominates Peterson, Peterson revives his career under false pretenses, and now somehow he is awarded a potential title shot at a higher weight - much less against a man who already has proven himself to be the superior fighter?

    Earlier today, the IBF held a purse bid at its New Jersey offices for the mandatory junior welterweight championship fight between current champion Lamont Peterson and No. 1 contender Zab Judah.
    Andre Johnson, the official spokesperson for Headbangers Promotions, informed Bleacher Report that Headbangers Promotions won the purse bid.
    According to fightnews.com, the winning purse bid was $50,000. The purse is to be split 75/25 between champion and challenger, but they should fight for substantially more money when all is said and done
    Headbangers is looking to stage the fight in Peterson’s native Washington, D.C., and both the Walter E. Washington Convention Center and the D.C. Armory are possible venues for the proposed fight, according to Johnson.
    The two parties have 15 days to come to an agreement and submit signed contracts to the IBF. The fight must be staged in the next 90 days or Jan. 2. If they are unable to come to an agreement in the allotted amount of time of 15 days, the fight will go to a second purse bid if an extension is not filed with the IBF.
    As of this time, there is no date or TV broadcaster set, but Johnson says they should have that ironed out in the coming days.
    HBO and Showtime could be options, but Johnson would not elaborate on what networks, if any, they have spoken to at this point.

    Whats with Top Rank and Unnecessary rematches?

    Guess Zab's getting that IBF strap, again. Meh, I wanted to see Judah-Garcia anyway.

    I wouldn't mind seeing this at all. The body work on both sides is going to be great.

    The source article for Bradley-Peterson rumor sites this purse bid between Bradley-Judah as a contingency if the rematch cannot be made.

    Steve Kim has this on Twitter:
    it looks like it will be Tim Bradley rematching Lamont Peterson on Dec. 15th at 147 pounds in Miami, Fl. according to sources
