Yes I do realize it. Be that as it may, what does that have to do with whether Tim Bradley can compete at 147? Or better yet, are you saying Pacquiao and the many other fighters in history who have moved are the only fighters who can do that? And we're only talking a move from 140-147. Bradley is not too small. Smaller fighters like Buddy McGirt(from 140) nad Pernell Whitaker(from 135) are just two of many fighters who have done this. Both were small welterweights. Smaller than Bradley. Neither had major punching power. And both are former welterweight champions. Skills is the main factor here. And if Judah seriously thought he was too small he would have made the move long ago. Judah is just trying to jump start a sinking career. Nothing more.

[QUOTE=solly6;7384723]The knockout win vs spinks was badass and i thought judah was going be really good. then he lost to a no talent ass clown and one of the worst ww's in baldomir. where is baldomir now? the guy is awful. judah has good skill and speed but he is a complete mental midget in the ring. he will never be great and will never contend at ww again.[/QUOTE]
Maybe not but size has nothing to do with it.Comment

I'm not saying he can't. Bradley looks likes he is a really good fighter and potentially a p4p top 10 in the near future. But you assuming he can compete with the top ww's is just your opinion. If he thought he could be in the top 5 at ww he would be. He has not beat anyone of great significance in his career and that 7lb jump is pretty big for a guy who is not very tall and does not have power at his own weight. Beating an old nate cambell who was a lightweight most his career, peterson and holt is not an impressive record when you are comparing him to the best at ww. those guys are all chumps who would get killed by the likes of mosley cotto pac floyd berto margs.[/U]

he is damn near a middleweight because he weighs at the limit on fight night.Hasn't done much yet? Please. Bradley has beaten Kendall Holt, Junior Witter, and dominated Lamont Peterson and Nate Campbell. Those are all top fighters and three are former world champions. When you can find those achievements on Clotteys resume let me know. And I never said Bradley deserved a shot. But in my mind he is a better and tougher opponent than Clottey and I already explained why.
that's what I am referring too.. and Holt, Cherry, Peterson, Witter are all good names but the only noteworthy one is Campbell at this point in time.
match Bradley vs Clottey and who do you think wins?
and Clottey's level of competition has been far better than Bradleys.. even though he's lost. None of the names on Bradley's resume compare to a Miguel Cotto or a Margarito.Comment

yea i've tried to explain this to the hardcore bradley fan. Cambell isn't anything great either I thought funeka beat cambell and that was with cambell missing weight and having a weight advantage. He was a top lightweight but don't think he will be anything at 140. AND YEA CLOTTEY DESTROYS BRADLEY AT 147.he is damn near a middleweight because he weighs at the limit on fight night.

I think Bradley/Bertos would be a pick'em fight. Bradley has beaten better competition lately than Pacroid has with the exception of Cotto but on bases of freshness he has. Bradley has beaten stiff competition and is a far better fight for Pac than Clottey is. Clottey has shown us that he cant cross the finish line but Bradley has shown us he can just a matter of how he carries the extra weight cause as we know only one fighter can rise up from 126 to 147 and become superman :-)Comment

Yea the key part of your post is cotto. Pac fought a very good strong ww in cotto and outboxed and knocked him out. Cotto is miles above anyone on bradley's resume. And now that pac has a ww title he is going to be fighting the best ww's and clottey is one of them. If bradley wants to move up to 147 and fight some top guys maybe he'll get a pac shot. But I don't see Pac fighting guys at JW WHEN HE HAS A WW TITLE AND GOT IT IN IMPRESSIVE FASHION. AND NO BRADLEY ISN'T A BETTER FIGHT THAN CLOTTEY.I think Bradley/Bertos would be a pick'em fight.
