    Just as Floyd probably felt encouraged after Pac-Marquez 3. I'm sure Bradley feels encouraged now.

    Differance is, Mayweather-Pac is basically a mismatch.

    I'd still give Khan somewhat of a chance against Timmy.

    What I hate about this is that Bradley ''won'' ( in most people mind ) by ducking the best competition and fighting a shot Cassamoyor

    But yes, him vs Pac would be the best fight to be made for Pac save PBF of course

    Bradley needs to fight SOMEBODY to stay sharp. Its not like he has the talent, and skills of Floyd. He cant afford to be inactive.

    But bout Bradley vs Guerrero? That sounds like an interesting fight to me. Or Bradley vs Matthyse.

    Yeah, I dont like Guerrero either. He's a good fighter, but he sure has become overrated after beating up the Aussie punching bag.

    I think Bradley would beat Guerrero clearly.

    NEGLECTING to Face Khan Basically DEFECATED Upon the Good Will that Bradley Built Up, After Winning the Title from Witter...Now that Peterson has Beaten Khan, Bradley Looks even WORSE for Bypassing that Bout...

    i dont see it that way at all. there were other factors at work, promotion wise.

    Guerrero is with Gbp. No way Bradley will fight him. Who's promoting Jmm these days? Is it still Gbp?

    only for the kind of fool who believe that because A beats B and B beats C, A automatically beat B. Bradley ducked Kahn, he admitted it himself to his credit.

    Yes, but did he give reasons as to why he ducked him?

    Right now, Bradley's people could leap in, offer Peterson a rematch for all the marbles and a career-best payday, and leave Khan in the cold. Peterson often claimed that he took the Bradley fight too early. Now would be a good time to rematch Bradley, what's he got to lose? If he draws or wins, the Khan fight is still on.

    Peterson vs Bradley for the Undisp 140lb Championship. Boxing needs this fight.

    peterson looks the same to me. maybe a little hungrier last saturday but that was mostly due to the opponent. i see the same thing happening if he fought bradley. its not a big money fight either.

    Two Americans, fighting for the WBC/WBA/WBO/IBF titles? Its a fucking massive fight, it would be huge in America if they promoted it right and got it into the right arena. Neither man is from New York, so they could have it there, neutral ground.

    You are right to a degree: Peterson probably fancies his chances better against Amir.

    Morales was actually given the WBC belt, remember?

    Even with three belts, Bradley's lack of drawing power and the lopsided nature of their fight two years ago makes this a bit of a tough sell. At best, it's a good TV fight (and that would be assuming that Peterson is more competitive, which is hardly guaranteed) but by no means 'a fucking massive fight.'
