    If Pacquiao can fight Clottey....then he can fight Bradley. But we all know the difference between Clottey and Bradley:bbb

    Yes both to beating Khan again, but prob losing to Bradley again and several others in the Div.

    I think Matthysse is a great boxer/puncher getting shafted now in all his top-level fights.

    If Khan won, there would be no rematch & he would be fighting at 147 in his next fight. Hell if they do rematch, & it's a close fight, & Khan won, he wouldn't give him a rematch. Team Peterson is just exploring their options & will go where the money is like all fighters.

    Agree but if Khan didn't accept the fight, Peterson would be fighting a contender for a vacant title, not on HBO and not for as much money as he got against Khan. In my opinion Khan did him a favor ... the one time that Mayweather rematched an opponent ... he appreciated the opportunity that Castillo gave him and gave him another chance. If you believe in yourself and your skills ... there shouldn't be a problem with a rematch. And if its aboout the money, he's not going to make more than he's made against Khan with anyone else. It'll be a biddging war against Bradley, in which case both guys would probably bid themselves out ... I don't think Bradley is lookin in the direction of Peterson either. If he wants to make 1mil, then he should put the belts up against Khan ... if not one of em is going to get vacated and it's going to be some bull****.
