Timothy Bradley: Cotto-Canelo, Mayweather-Pacquaio, those are 50-50 fights

Yesterday afternoon Former two-division champion Timothy “Desert Storm” Bradley held a media workout ahead of his return with Diego Chaves this coming, Saturday, Dec. 13, inside the Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas. Before getting in the ring and performing a light workout, Bradley answered questions for the media present. One of the question Bradley revolved around a much talked about bout between the current WBC middleweight champion Miguel Cotto, and the former world jr. middleweight champion Saul Canelo Alvarez. Bradley, considered the bout to be 50-50 and one that the fans are highly interested in.

“Cotto-Canelo is one of them fights that’s a pick ‘em,” Bradley would reply when asked about Cotto-Canelo. He would continue saying, “These are fights that everyone wants to see. These are the 50-50 fights that the fans want to see and they’re going to pay attention to. The fans aren’t stupid anymore. They’re not dumb. Fans are catching on, that’s why boxing is not getting the one million PPVs anymore, until they [the fans] get what they want. If that Mayweather-Pacquiao fight happens, you’re going to see 3 million fans paying to see it happen; because that’s a fight everyone wants to see. “

As for his thoughts on Mayweather-Pacquiao.. “50-50!!” in case anyone didn’t pay attention Bradley would reply a second time… “That’s 50-50” and would finish by saying, “that’s a tough fight,” as he would walk away to begin his workout.
