Timothy Bradley Jr. is best known for handing one of Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao's defeats. And after his last fight with Diego Chaves last December, Bradley and his camp have so far been silent until now.
Though no apparent reason has been mentioned on his sudden disappearance from the boxing scene, Bradley is said to be returning somewhere near the middle of 2015.
Such was revealed by his wife Monica, who now manages her husband's career. According to Mrs. Bradley, they are trying to work out a fight either in May or June.
Bradley's last fight with Chaves did not escape controversy. In that December 13 bout, Bradley and Chaves battled to a draw which raised some eyebrows over at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas.
Bradley suffered a swollen left cheek from that fight which resulted when he and Chaves clashed heads. And while it was not mentioned, it could perhaps be the reason why Bradley has so far been mum until now.
As for his potential opponent, no names have been divulged just yet. The name of Miguel Cotto was mentioned but Mrs. Bradley could not deny nor confirm if he would be a potential opponent.
As for other names, none could be mentioned. And apparently Bradley and his camp may be in for a tough time getting a worthy adversary in the welterweight division, especially since most fighters in that niche are either affiliated with some advisers and networks.
However, Bradley could look at popular names right now. This includes boxers like Amir Khan, Brandon Rios or even Cornelius Bundrage.
All that aside and whoever ends up facing Bradley, Mrs. Bradley made it clear that her husband Tim will be fighting twice this year – mid-year and another before the year ends.
