[elcashanilla]

this idiot with no fan base turned down 1.4 mill for what to sing with top rank ang get his ass kick by rios for like 250k whan a duma$$ bradley is he can even sell out in his own hometown

When you read these quotes, you see how blatant these promoters lie...

GTFOH with that perplexed ****.

You know he turned it down because Arum promised him a Pacquiao fight after JMM so he's waiting out the expiration of his contract.

[Easy-E]

I like Bradley, but getting offered 80/20 (this seems unlikely) and 50/50 if he actually turned that down, he is ducking.

It is tough to legitimatize that argument, though.

Bradley will be Pac's next opponent next May....

...After Bradley joins TP, Arum will match him up with either Cintron or Clottey this fall, as a tune-up for a Pac showdown in May. A win over either fighter will boost his value. 5 Mil guaranteed plus upside against Pac in May.

He can do this fight and not extend his contract..

He would have to wait close to a year from now even to get the Pac fight..

He clearly doesn't have that much confidence in his ability to beat Khan.. if he did surely he would take it and fight Pac early next year?

i am british, about to go for my morning jog

i am a MASSIVE TIM BRAdley fan, I thought he was cut from the same cloth as A.Ward

but no, id fancy him to beat khan. everyone in boxing knows you have one more fight with Shaw, YOU CALLED OUT KHAN IN FEBUARY, FOR GODS SAKE. take the god dam fight, he MUST be ducking khan if this is the case, and its ****** because if you know boxing Bradley would be the slight favourite

he called out khan

smh

what a biatach, put your guarantee where your mouth is, your lucky to get that amount from hbo in the first place

100% Tim Bradley reads these boxing forums, Tim, your braver than i'll ever be but for ducking this fight your a disgrace

and ppl criticise GARY SHAW

GARY SHAW GOT HIM A FIGHT ON HBO FOR A MILLION PLUS AGAINST [I]ANYBODY[/I]

IF THATS NOT GOOD PROMOTING I DONT KNOW WHAT IS

[OnePunch]

Shaw isnt ******, he knows Bradley is gone when the contract is up. He's not gonna leave a couple hundred grand (his end) on the ground by trying to stick in a contract extension he knows Dunkin will reject. No, something else is at play here........

And for what its worth, by offering him the Khan fight over $1.2 million, I believe HBO has fulfilled their obligation from the Alexander fight.

I think by the time its all said and done, Bradley will learn the hard way that in this business, you NEVER leave a million plus laying on the ground...............

[bluetuazon]

The thing is Dan Rafael said numerous times that this fight has NO contact extension for Bradley and that it'd be his last fight with Shaw. So the whole "waiting till his contract is finished in July" is ****ing ****** because it's still a big ass pay day and he's not a big draw. So you don't like Shaw and don't wanna be promoted by him? Fully understood, I don't like him either, but ****ing hell, he's hurting himself by sitting on the sidelines for over 6 months as a young unbeaten fighter...take the Khan fight as your last one under Shaw, beat him like you said you would, make lots of money, then sign with GBP or Top Rank....EASY!

I don't think it's to fight Floyd, because surely Schaffaer would know something about this....I mean it'd be like "Bradley I know you're fighting Floyd, but lets make you look bad prior to your fight with Floyd by making it look like you're ducking Amir Khan"....yeah right!

Also this whole "Bob Arum is behind it"...that is no ****ing excuse. If Bob is, Bradley is a fool for listening to him. Bradley defenders and Bob Arum haters want to blame him for it all, but why? What difference does it make to Bob? Fight Khan, Pacquiao fights JMM, sign for Bob after and then fight Pacquiao???

This is either horrendous business decision by Bradley (those who say he's intelligent clearly forget how poorly he handled the Alexander situation and HBO will NO doubt be pissed off with him now and not sign him for multi-fight deal that he wants), or he see's something in Khan that he does not like......i.e. he doesn't have the height, reach and punching power to KO Khan, and thinks Khan's come forward style will beat him on scorecards. For some reason....I think it's the former, which is a damn shame.

^^^^^u have a point.....good post!!

[bluetuazon]

If Bradley is afraid of losen this fight and blowning a chance to fight miss pacman he's an idiot. Miss pacman fights guys coming off losses anyway so he shouldn't worry.

you guys are truly a work of art....finding ways to hate pac...smh...clowns! lol
