    not agreat idea.

    tim bradley does not bring quite the gain that floyd mayweather brings, does he?

    not the same level of prestige.

    plus, if JMM-PBF ticket sales were poor, imagine what they'd be like for JMM-Bradley!

    Marquez is too elite for bradley. sure, tim has skills and heart, but he's not
    an enormous jr welter. He only has average power that wouldn't bother
    marquez, and he doesn't show marquez anything new. Add in that juan
    has built up his frame to a jr. welters and it spells defeat all day for desert
    storm.
    Marquez tko 9

    But if it's about a 4th divisional title? Bradley, a unified champ, is only 2nd behind PacMan in the division. Unlike David Diaz, he's a real champion in a strong division, and we are taling about an interim fight as Mayweather injured, not like fighting Bradley would be his final goal in boxing.

    So... why not do it in July, and fight Mayweather in November?

    If JMM could get either Bradley or Valero for the date he should, both are pretty good fights and he will still be very alive, in case of a win, to land a fight with Pacman or Floyd.

    The general feeling is that Floyd will sneak out of this fight and try to go directly after Pacman.

    I agree, Floyd's camp is probably in contact with Arum right now and should do so for the next 2-3 weeks, then if they can't get a deal there they will just announce the postponement of the JMM fight for september.

    Bradley aint ready for Marquez. He's got too many holes in his D.

    He'll beat Campbell though.
