They aren't equal at all. Who did Khan beat in his last fight and who did Bradley beat in his? What were the records of the competition Bradley has beaten vs the competition Khan has beaten over the past 3 years? Bradley has beaten everybody. All the best in the division, guys who has perfect records. What about Khan? He beat Maidana and thats all. Why can't Khan fight Alexander and the winner take on Bradley? It makes the most sense to me considering they both have losses on their record.
Bradley's a ducking ***** little ***** for this. He kept calling out Khan and saying Khan was ducking him (which I thought would be true) but it turns out ass backwards and Timmy's the ducker....what a little punk. I use to be a fan I've lost all respect for this clown. You don't call someone out then refuse the fight when it's offered to you on a silver platter. pathetic
Compare record for record. Khan has been fighting bums compared to Bradley's competition. Bradley deserves to fight a bum after beating Alexander and I don't care what none of you say. Khan got to fight his bum, why can't Bradley? Look at these records. Not a break in between them either. He has been beating a string of undefeated fighters. Give the man a break. You think Khan is on the same level? This is Khan's competition Khan has beaten bums and shot fighters. And the ones who aren't bums, well I never heard of any of them so at best they were weak contenders. Bradley has been beating all the undefeated big names. Including Alexander, Peterson, Abregu.
Alexander loses one fight, to the best fighter in the division, and he's now behind Judah and Maidana...:huh. I agree with Bradley and Khan being at the top of your list, but I still would have Alexander ahead of Maidana and damn sure ahead of Judah. I could understand why someone might put Maidana ahead of Alexander, even though I disagree, but I can't remotely understand how you would arrive at the conclusion that Judah would be ahead of Alexander or Maidana for that matter.
People need to give Bradely a break. He's simply trying to shake off Shaw. Gary Shaw has done very little for Bradely's career. I really don't think Tim will sign with GB because his ultimate goal is Manny. He may sign with TR and still try to make the Khan fight because HBO will push it, then after he beats the **** out of the real ***** -Khan he can go head butt Pac.
This mother****er is starting to sound more and more like Floyd everytime he talks about Khan. What a ****ing *****.
Why wouldn't he hold out? He's got the chance to make good money facing an easier opponent once he leaves Shaw due to the HBO guarantee, and there's always the chance he gets the call to fight Pacquiao after that fight, which would be a much bigger fight than Khan will be. If he doesn't get the Pac fight, he'll go back to Khan. And Khan will still take the fight, because Amir will still want it badly then for the same reasons he does now. This situation kinda blows for Khan right now, but from a financial standpoint, I can understand exactly why Bradley's doing what he's doing. He'll end up well off for a guy who's not a draw at all. Khan should keep taking care of business- there's enough quality fighters at 140 to allow him to keep developing in the meantime while making good money himself. He may as well take advantage of the extra tune-up fight before a possible Bradley match up.
Their resumes aren't too disimilar considering context. Alexander and maidana are about equal. Paulie and holt are about equal. Peterson and mccloskey are about equal. Witter and kotelnick are about equal. A year ago everyone said let's see khan take on maidana, brad take on alexander and the winners fight. The winners are khan and bradley. This fight determines the divisional champ. I can't believe it hasn't been signed already! All this contract posturing is bs. Right now the only fight that brad could take which would give him more credit than khan would be ortiz. Anything else isn't as good and he knows it.
