Timothy Bradley Turns Down Khan Deal

Timothy Bradley Turns Down Khan Deal

Amir Khan was recently interviewed and stated that current WBC and WBO Light Welter Weight Champion Timothy Bradley didn't want to fight him. However, Timothy Bradley really wants to fight Amir Khan, and it's really a case of money that is keeping this fight from going ahead. Amir Khan and his managment team have offered Timothy Bradley $1.3 Million to fight Khan with all the belts on the line, which isn't a very good offer considering that HBO have guaranteed Timothy Bradley $1.2 million for his next fight. So why should he fight Amir Khan, putting both of his World Title belts on the line for an extra $100,000.

This is a unification fight, whoever wins this is the Light Welterweight unified champion. The split should be 50/50. I would be interested in what everyone else thinks on this. I know that lots of people think Khan should get more money because Bradley couldn't sell out his back garden. But I don't look at it like that, Bradleys putting all his belts on the line here and people will pay to see two of the best fighters in the light welter weight division fight each other for the WBC, WBA, and WBO titles.
