Timothy Bradley not scared to go against Amir Khan or anyone else in the Light Welterweight Division
Timothy Bradley spoke to the press in an interview to boxing television that he is planning to take on Amir Khan for his next fight of 23
July. This could bring both the fighters face-to-face in the ring for the most interesting and growing division of the 140-pound weight class in world boxing.
However, if Khan's team does not want this bout to happen or if they want to delay this bout until the end of the next year, that will be alright from Bradley’s point of view. Bradley has commented that this will not disturb him in any way.
The World Boxing Council and World Boxing Association light welterweight champion, Bradley said he is satisfied and confident with his fight plan that he can even go against anyone.
Bradley said on Wednesday just before Khan’s fight against McCloskey, “I am number one. If they want what I got, they just have to call my number, I am not chasing anyone.”
Bradley stated that because the British national superstar Khan has now gained a lot of recognition from all around the world, the preference will be given to Amir as his next possible opponent. Secondly, because his win over Marcos Maidana in December has
played an important role to lift his status in the United States as well.
Khan verses Bradley fight is expected to take place on 23 July at the Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas. However, it depends on how Khan now reacts towards Bradley’s bout after successfully defending his title against McCloskey.
If Khan’s team does not show their interest to the Bradley bout or if they do not agree to the terms then the other possible options for Bradley to fight are Zab Judah and Manuel Marquez.
Improvements and a better fight plan have been observed in Bradley’s last fight against Devon Alexander in Detroit. Bradley won with a unanimous decision in the tenth round.
However, Bradley does not look so concerned going against his specific opponent but one thing that he wishes is that he wants to fight in front of his home crowd and home-country. Because he has realised that he is much more confident and feel inspired to
do great things in front of his fans and home crowd.
