Former champion Tim Bradley questioned WBA super lightweight champion Gary Antuanne Russell's desire to postpone a unification bout against Shakur Stevenson. Bradley claimed on his channel that Russell was offered $2 million to face Stevenson at 140 pounds, criticizing the decision to delay the fight after Russell indicated he would prefer to make the matchup later.
