    This looks likely to be Pacquiao next fight should he beat JMM in November.

    Bradley has signed to Top Rank, who promotes Pacquiao and with Mayweather fight not looking likely, it seems that the Bradley fight will happen in the spring of 2012.

    Bradley undefeated, was undisputed champ at 140lbs before he was stripped of his titles. For not defending against Khan, but Bradley was angling for the big prize which is Pacquiao.

    What your views on this fight?

    I am a bit surprised that Bradley is doing this. Let's be honest, Bradley is a chicken and is scared of Khan after refusing to fight him but he knows he will get a good pay day with this fight even though it is guaranteed that he will lose against Manny.

    Don't rate Bradley at all, another vastly overated American imo. I think Khan would destroy Bradley so im not even going to bother watching if Pac fight's him because the outcome is so predictable.

    Who do you rate at 147lbs and bellow for Pacquiao to face?

    Well he has Marquez next that should be more interesting then his last few fight's but to be honest I think both Mayweather and Pac are far too good for anyone else out there at the moment and im not really interested in either of them unless they fight each other.

    Bradley shat it from Khan just because Khan said he shat it?

    Well, he refused to fight Khan and was stripped of his titles. I think that is a sign he was scared of Khan and worried that his 0 unbeaten streak would end.

    Bradley's contract was almost up with Shaw, the Khan fight was meant to be his last fight with Shaw. But Arum offered Bradley a deal to fight Pacquiao but only if he had his unbeaten record in tact.

    Bradley stood to make $1.5-2m with the Khan fight, fighting Pacquiao Bradley would make $5m.

    He knew there was a real chance Khan could beat him and scupper a bigger pay day with Pacquiao.

    Bradley chose to avoid the risky fight with Khan for a bigger pay day with Pacquiao.
