If Bradley considers himself number 2, then that means he thinks Floyd is one and Pacquiao was 2, Which means he thought Floyd was better then Pacquiao..
What now? Even if he did get the win he didn't look impressive, he did nothing in the last 6 rounds.
I thought he looked excellent for most of the fight and split the last six (and that was being charitable in 8). If he'd gotten the decision he earned, no one would think about moving him from where ever they had him.
Still shouldn't IMO (but, again, it's P4P so people can have fun with it).
Thanks, I greatly appreciate the clarification mate. So he considers Floyd to be the #1 p4p fighter in the world and himself to be the #2.
Bradley should quit while he is ahead, and stop digging himself a bigger hole. The fact that he was given a gift decsion was bad enough, so silence is the best policy for Bradley right now.
Rankings don't work that way. What happens is the person ranked number 1 drops several places, the person who is number 2 moves to number one and the person who beat the number 1 moves up several places.
Also I wouldn't have a problem with placing Ward over Mayweather p4p. I'm waiting on his fight with Dawson.

He said a few times before he signed a Pacquiao fight that he considers Mayweather the best in the world.
I see. Ok thanks for clearing that up for me.
Whatever order peeps had Pac or May in before Saturday, nothing happened Saturday to change it.

Just out of curiosity; If he now considers himself the #2 p4p fighter in the world because he defeated the #1 p4p fighter in the world in Manny Pacquiao, then who does he currently consider the #1 p4p fighter of the world; Money Mayweather? One would think that technically speaking, that he would consider himself the new best p4p fighter in the world since beating the Pacman, unless he never considered him the best pound for pound fighter in the first place.

There are procedures to it and beating the number 1 unless you're ranked close (2nd, 3rd) will not elevate you to the number 1 position.
It has never worked like that way and logically it shouldn't.
Who says? There is no procedure. There are trends, sure, but it's mostly self important drivel. P4P is for fun.
P4P can work any way people want. It's a silly parlor game. If one wanted to move Ward way up to #1 after Froch, so be it. This doesn't merit acting like there are rules.

I was just about to say that. Pound for pound is purely subjective. Bradley can believe he's number 1 p4p and there is nothing anybody can do about it.

He beat the # 1 P4p person he should be considered top 10 at least.
:
Brad lost against the P4pno1, but survived so deserves credit. P4p top 10 could be a likely thing. But needs to have a few more nice wins after this loss to Pac.
