    Notice the difference from "it's up to my promoter Bap Arum".

    I hear what he is saying but he is talking out the side of his mouth. If you are willing to push Arum to negotiate and you would want that fight then tell Arum to contact GBP or get Todd to do it and see if Floyd is down.

    His ass is no different than Manny.

    Mayweather-Bradley is a no-brainer for all parties involved.

    Tim's beaten Marquez, Pac (decision anyway), Provodnikov, and Alexander. He's the highest rated WW for Floyd, undefeated, with two strong ppv's under his belt.

    Meantime, TR wouldn't make anywhere near the money on Bradley-Pacquiao II, given the expected pay raise Bradley now commands. And should Bradley pull the upset, it would be major blow to Showtime and GB. Where should Bradely lose the customary UD to Floyd, he's atleast raised his profile.

    He couldn't sell water to ppl on fire..... + not a fan friendly fighter, would do worse than the Guerrero ppv, and I'm sick of these ppv duds, don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of the sweet science but all these duds are bad for boxing.

    Bradley has not been with Arum long enough to understand that Bob will do what he wants to and coudn't care less what his fighters want!
    If Arum were to make a cross promotional fight now it would be Pac vs Floyd

    bob arum would be the winner profit wise in a bradley vs. mayweather fight. floyd isnt sharing ppv revenue with a nobody like bradley, let alone having bob arum have a piece of the pie.

    He lost to Pac and Provodnikov. He needs to rematch those two guys first.

    How can this fight be made when Floyd refuses to do business with Arum ?

    Pac-Bradley I was a one-sided fight, there's no value to a rematch. Where's the suspense? Manny actual gets the decision this time?

    As for Provodnikov, Tim wouldn't make the same mistake twice and try and brawl with Ruslan. Bradley has the ability to simply box to UD against Ruslan, that sounds awesome...

    Tim's a very talented fighter, but he's also a pretty limited product to sell at the top level, which where he's at.

    I think TR and GB are at the cross roads with some of their fighters and are going to realize there's currently more money for one another in working with each other right now.
