If Khan was the one that turned down the fight instead of Bradley.............

Khan wants the fight, he would look a prat for turning it down. Bradley knows he is in a strong position being the number 1 fighter, having beaten Alexander, so is just negotiating a better deal for himself without options to promoters.

This is pretty simple business. For starters anybody can lose and neither fighter is afraid of the other. Khan has a guarantee from Golden Boy for his next several fights to make minimum of 1.4 million a piece. Khan will make significantly more depending on the opponent. Khan is set. Bradley isn't. His only good money guarantee is the next fight on HBO worth 1.2 million whether its Khan or not. Khan is a fight worth a million itself to Bradley. Thats two separate million dollar paydays Bradley can cash in on if he doesn't get much more from a straight to Khan fight or the longshot of a Pac fight. It would be idiotic business to make the two different million dollar paydays cancel one of the other out. If Bradley ever loses most likely he'll never see another million dollar payday again. If Khan stood to only make the 1.4 million minimum for a Bradley fight I'm sure he would have very well turned down the fight also not because he is scared but because he knows he can make significantly more.
