    Agreed.Everyone wants to see an undisputed champ at 140. And I would love to see the fight.

    I just dont think its as simple as Bradley ducking him.

    And I think they can both come back from losses at this stage of there careers. Just my opinion mind, and you have made good points

    I personally think Mayweather-Khan is a bigger mismatch than Pacquiao-Bradley. Mainly because I still rate Bradley and Mayweather more than Khan and Pacquiao (only slightly with Bradley and Khan, though. Saturday's fight has forced me to re-assess things).

    You're right, it's still possible that they won't become damaged goods. Bradley and Khan do seem to have the mental fortitude to not let such losses deter them from further development. I really hope that will be the case.

    floyd would not fight bradley over khan.

    floyd would earn more money if he fights khan because floyd can get some uk ppv money.

    Not so sure, Khan has the handspeed & enough power to keep things more competitive, especially if Khan/Roach keep things at long range. Bradley, is just totally outgunned in every aspect by Manny....

    Bradley should be ashamed. He'd rather sit on the sidelines waiting for a huge payday rather then earn them. I've been a fan of his for many years now, but it's getting more difficult to support his actions.

    I don't see why people are complaining..

    Bradley-Pac

    Ortiz-Floyd

    (Khan-Floyd) maybe maybe down the line..

    Bradley-Khan is a fight that should have happened but didn't happen for financial reasons. I don't think GBP has the marketing to sell this fight so that both fighters would get the most money..

    its strictly a business move. Once you get Pac-Bradley, you'll buy the PPV just like everyone else.:yep

    Actually don't mind Bradley ducking Khan to fight Pac as long as they meet afterwards.

    I don't care much for zeros. Even if both Bradley and Khan lose their respective fights, I wouldn't rate their fight differently because they just come out of a loss. Losing to Mayweather and Pac is no shame.

    I think Khan/Mayweather is a better match than Bradley/Pac just because I see Khan as the better fighter than Bradley. I think that Khan has the tools to beat Bradley so in perspective will be the tougher opponent for either Pac or Floyd. But either way, neither Bradley nor Khan can win their fights. I see Pac KO Bradley and Mayweahter winning a wide UD over Khan.

    Pac vs. Bradley isn't a guarantee. You think TB should just sit and wait till next May, which is probably the earliest?

    Whether anyone buys it is irrelevent to the discussion.
