    I wouldn't mind him taking the spot of Celestino Caballero, Chad Dawson, or Paul Williams.

    He's the truth. No one beats him at 140 other than Pacquiao if he were to ever go back, which he wont.

    I thought he had the makings of the truth ever since his Witter performance. He's only made a stronger case with each and every fight.

      Lamont Peterson is a solid fighter man, and we shouldn't forget the nate campbell fight just because it was ruled a NC - he was on the verge of destroying nate.

          He does deserve to be top ten P4P. But I can't understand why so many people are sleeping on Alexander. Devon is a left hander and has the speed to compete with Bradley. You would have to make Tim the favorite though.

            well he's young and lacks the resume at the moment. He is talented though for sure, he just needs a lil more experience.

            That's why I hope that rumored HBO tournament goes through.

              Thats a nice fight right there and Alexander's got a belt right?

              Tim can start to unify. I'd favor him in that fight too, but Alexander's pretty damn good too.

                I think he needs one more good win against a notable opponent.

                    Bradley beat Witter in his backyard.

                    He showed remarkable recovery powers against Holt a very dangerous power puncher.

                    He was most likely gonna take care of Campbell like he was supposed to (still would like to see a rematch to remove any doubts, however small).

                    Desert Storm made it look easy against a solid prospect like Peterson. (Don't think you could give Peterson more that say 3 rounds, IMO, plus there was a KD.)

                    Thing is TB is just warming up. He should definitely be in the top 10 if he wins his next fight against a top rated opponent.

                      That's why I think it might be a little premature to put Bradley in the top ten P4P as much as he deserves it. Look at what happened to Juan Diaz when everyone thought he was a beast just because he had the resume to back up his position.
