He said he isnt concerned about Khan. He also said he knows people will talk but he doesn't care. He said he wants to fight Manny or Floyd.
I hope he doesnt get his fight with manny or floyd, both would give him a serious beating anyway. I thought bradley was a real fighter yet he pussied out of an important unification fight.
Bradley is a complete ****ing joke. He is shamelessly avoiding the best fighter in his division so he can try to get a big payday against Floyd or Manny. Now, correct me if i'm wrong, but not fighting the other top guy in the division in a HUGE unification fight in case you lose and blow future pay days is ducking, isn't it? Boxing needs more Khans and Frochs and less Bradleys
yes. I was shocked when he did this. If he wanted to step up, he should have took the pay day, fought Khan, then finished in his contract with Shaw, and moved on. Now he seems to be in a whole mess.
Manny was actively talking about fighting him when he turned down Khan. Bradley will fight him now, I'm sure. It's not like Tim is another sexy Sergio trying to call out darchinyan or something, he just tried to get that once in a lifetime payday.
Its also hbo's fault for giving him and devon 1.2 mil for whoever they fight next, I dont get the logic behind that, neither guy is a big draw.
bradley ain't scared, there is no rush to fight khan now, especially considering the offer hbo gave him in his last bout, he playing it smart and I don't blame him. People rushed the Devon fight and look how that turned out, why can't we build these guys up more when they both at their peak and get a super fight? Drama is also a part of boxing as is the hype, this is why people are drawn to the sport, I'm not saying wait to long but once pac and floyd are out the picture it will be these young lions carrying the sport on it's back.
their fight is most relevant now, khan has 1 fight left before he vacates and moves up to welter, therefore it should be happening now since they both have 2 belts.
That fight has "Ruined by an headbutt." written all over. but still it is the biggest fight that can be made at 140. And it would be nice to have an undisputed number one in the division.
Pretty poor. Especially considering Bradley was banging on not too long ago about how he'd fight everone and that the best in the division should all fight each other.
Ofcourse he is scared, he is scared of losing and then reducing his chances of getting to fight Pac or Floyd and yes there is a rush because it looks like Khan is about to leave 140lbs very soon and if he does all hopes of a big unification bout are dead.
Not really Khan and Bradley can both leave 140 in order to pursue the 147 division. Bradley has indicated before khan that he is willing to move up to WW, he has already done so when he fought Abregu to test the waters. Khan has yet to do so. From a business perspective it makes no sense these two facing each other now, yes from a fan point of view we want it now but after that then what, khan get's spanked by mayweather, bradley get's spanked by pac, does neither of them no good in the long run. If I was there promotor I would make them meet at WW in 2 years when both are at their peak.
