-Madaina's done nothing at Welterweight
-Broner has done even less
-Pacquiao is 1-2 in his last 3 fights
-Floyd hasnt faced a top WW @ 147lbs in almost 4 years
-Khan has slurred speech
Bradley is undefeated with wins over the #2 and #3 ranked WWs in the last year yet I cant find any current threads of him on this site?
The problem is he is with Arum, which limits his options to Pac or JMM. Unless he takes on lesser known name and weight class in Provo (again) or Alvarado. I hope his contract comes to an end so that he can be open to other options around the world.
...and if I may add, Bradley was given not one but two undeserved victories on Provo and plain and simple GIFT over Pac.
Wake up TS, Bradley is another scam.

I just watched Bradley/Provodnikov over again. Bradley showed lots of boxing ability but for some reason (maybe to silence the critics) decided to fight like a complete idiot and wail away at Provodnikov. Came back against Marquez and showed off some of that boxing ability as well.
As far as Im concerned there is a tier 1,2,3 for the Top Welterweights
Tier 1:
Mayweather
Tier 2:
Bradley, Pacquiao, Marquez
Tier 3:
Thurman, Maidana, Porter, Guerrero, Alexander, Broner, Brook, Malignaggi
Makes a lot of sense. But in my opinion, its hard to have Floyd at tier 1 when Bradley, Manny, and Marquez are all top ww and have fought each other. I respect Floyd's resume and can accept him ranked as p4p champion. But Bradley, in my opinion, has the all around best resume in the last 4 or 5 years. That's including his fights at jr ww too.
The only way to settle it is to get Floyd in the ring with Tim. Win or lose, it would be Floyd's toughest fight since the Judah fight. Bradley is battle tested against the elite and have solid wins over B and C class fighters. He's fought the brawlers, speedsters, and technicians. He doesn't have the previledge to hand pick opponents that's tailor made for him, so he has to adapt to whatever style is in front of him. Bradley will never get his just do until he is out of the sport, but he is the definition of a true champion. In order for Floyd to continue to say he is the best 147lber, he will have to fight Bradley...period.

Bradley's a good fighter, but his resume is at 140, not 147
Pac wiped the fucking floor with Bradley
low ranked JWW Ruslan moved up and bashed his head in
don't terribly mind Bradley's win there but it was a lucky escape
piss drinker fired his last clip in his big KO win over Pac
Bradley didn't prove jack shit beating an old piss drinker at WW
Floyd is the best fighter at WW, but he hasn't dazzled lately either
I just don't see how you can say that when he hasn't fought any of the top welterweights.
The only current fighter who's proven at Welterweight is Pacquiao. He beat everybody there was to beat at 147. Floyd hasn't even fought a single top welterweight in his entire career, unless you count baldomir.
Really??? Pacquiao got two good wins at 147 against Cotto and Clottey, another good win against the top 140 guy in Bradley. That's it.
Floyd's got wins at 147 over Judah who was Top 5 WW, Baldomir who was the RING champ at the time, Hatton who was Top 10 P4P and the #1 140 fighter, Marquez who would go on to KO Pac at WW, Mosley who was the real #1 147 fighter, Ortiz, and Guerrero, both of which were Top 5 WW.
Your lack of knowledge is laughable.
I know right! Karass beat aydin and Berto too. Did anybody rank him top 3 ??
Exactly sir, this is unfortunately the outcome of money taking over the sport. Never in the previous era were people of Guerrero's level as a top ww. Bradley has proved himself of being a top ww. Even though the PAC fight was a dubious decision.
Here's reasons why?
His win over Pacquiao was a blatant robbery
He never earned his belt the legit way
He claims as if he really did enough in the fight to beat Pacquiao
He has headbutted his ways to wins in the past *Devon Alexander
He got a lucky decision against Provdovnikov
He ducked Amir Khan! Yes srsly!
He almost lost to Junior Witter! LOL!
And most importantly of all... he's a cunt.
He is not he best welterweight and most of what is listed here is at least somewhat true but he did not almost lose to Jr Witter. Clearly beat him and was robbed of a UD
Yet Bradley's record says 32-0, care to explain that?
Bradley IS good but Pac beat his ass and broke his ankle. Prov nearly killed him, he did beat Juan though.
I really hated Bradley after the Pac fight, and him saying he won 8-4 is like me saying I'm a millionaire. It's simply not true

Bradley ain't no joke but h8rz gonna h8 :boxing:
Because he isnt silly.
Just seem like one of the many times some one makes a thread for attention.
Mayweather has the best resume of anyone campaigining at the weight. Is the two time lineal champion and has beaten 8 former world champions and titlists there and 7 were former champs at 147
sorry man you cant change history. pac lost to bradley, personally i thought pac edged a close, difficult to score fight. but pac still lost. you cant say someone won when they didnt, you cant re-write history.
i wouldnt say pac is the most proven welter, i think id argue bradley is. he holds more recent and notable wins. Rios proved very little, but bradley beat JMM and went toe to toe with prodvinkov and still beat him. btw i thought bradley was a fool in that fight, he could of cruised it but fair play to him he wanted a war and came out on top.
if pac meets bradley again i think all the current evidence points towards a bradley UD. pac hasn got the power to KO bradley, i dont think he has the stamina to outwork him either...
When you have a stone cold robbery, only a total jacka$$ would say sorry man you cant change history, Rios beat Abril, personally i had it close for Abril
