Bottom line he got the win against Top 3 ranked fighter in his division. No matter how entertained you were, how many headbutts occured, how you feel they perform against Manny or Floyd, or how slick you think they are. Its a good win and Tim moves up P4P how far? I say #5. Give me your reasons why you feel he shouldn't pass certain fighters IYO.
Again P4P is all based on opinions...
My top 5 in no particular order is
Pac
Floyd
JMM
Martinez
Montiel
In my personal list Bradley will be as high as #6 P4P
But, you also have fighters like Donaire, Wlad, Wonjongkam, Moreno, Juanma, Adamek, Froch, Bute Khan, Segura, and Ward who can fit in the bottom half of the top 10
Good list - I think Bradley could be placed higher than all the guys you mentioned, with the exception of maybe Wlad and Froch.

Ward should not be in the top ten.
Well with the rules Ward plays by, he's possibly P4P 1. But if he had to play by the legitimate rules of boxing.. No I don't think he is either.
I see someone voted 4th. They must have put him ahead of Marquez for the same reasons Martinez passed him. Fighting Diaz, Katsidis, Morales as compared to more dangerous fights
Considering his fight with Alexander proved more that Alexander the fake is an overrated chump, than Bradley being anything more than he was before the fight, I doubt he'll move from where he is now.
Hes not even above Khan or Maidana. He headbutted Alexander at least 6 times in that fight and caused cuts on both sides of his face. Headbutting doesnt move you up in the rankings. Devon Alexander got exposed as a one dimensional fighter who can only jab and hold and doesnt have heart. Hes not even p4p be only better than Froch who should definatly be in the top 10.
Are you serious headbutts were they only even that occured in the fight? Alexander still a good fighter just got in the ring with a better one and still won half of the complete rounds. Khan cannot be ranked above Bradley.

He's currently number 9. So I think he should be in at number 8 P4P. It wasn't an impressive performance and it just re-affirmed my belief that Khan would beat him if they were to fight. I voted number 7 P4P because there's no '8' option.
Bradley has the best resume at 140lbs, but his reign as JWW number 1 is on borrowed time. If/when Bradley fights Khan, Amir stops him late-on.
A guy is the 9th or 10th best boxer in the world but he's not that good? Doesn't make much sense.
I once saw someone write both of these gems, to the best of my recollection:
"Pacquiao is a borderline great. He's barely top 50, all-time."
and
"Tyson was a fraud. He's top ten HW ATG, at best."
...It's mind-boggling.
The list is a joke donaire and lopez dont belong there and wonjakam doesnt belong that high. I would agree on 1-4 then montiel or wladimir on 5 and after then i would have bradley. And then ward.
I agree, #6 after Montiel sounds about right. Either Klitschko doesn't belong on a P4P list just because they're regularly outweighing opponents by 20 pounds (and they're still fat/overweight).
I'm guessing the Ring just switch him with Wladimir. Hopefully anyway. I like Bradley a lot but beating Devon is NOT a better win than Montiel's over Hasegawa by far, which is what I'd be focusing on for whether or not he can jump over him now.
