    If so, why?

    If not, why?
    Still overrated. Nothings changed Im happy to see the young guys get noticed though. The 140 Pound division is wide open right now if he makes his mark there then I will give credit where credit is due.

    Alexander
    Khan
    Urango
    Ortiz
    Maidana
    Malinagii
    Campbell


    Hes got more work to do at 140. Good young fighter though.

      So he has to clean out the division to not be overrated? I can dig it...Not really, but okay.

      I won't list the reasons why I feel he is not overrated, but deserves all the hype he gets...Cause you know all those reasons.

      Anyway, I will not steal your topic, just wanted to see if your thought process had changed.

        He doesnt have to beat all those guys. Im just saying hes overrated when People say hes the clear cut beast in the divison and Im like wait fellas that divison is loaded and they aint all fought each other yet. I like Bradley hes a good fighter.

          But he is a beast in that division...He has beaten more names than anyone...

          There is not one huge name in the division. The division is loaded yes, but not one huge name among the lot.

          Out of the folks you listed, Paulie and Campbell are about the most popular. Not to mention that Bradley was this close (index to thumb) to dusting Campbell off...

          I don't know....

          I think beating Witter in his back yard.
          Then Holt.
          Then Campbell (it got reversed, but you saw what was about to happen)
          Then Peterson, has earned him his stripes.

          I think he has paid his dues, and deserves all the credit he gets. He is proven now, not overrated.

          I guess we can just agree to disagree.

              He should not be fighting at 140. He looks bigger than both Floyd and Pac.

                    Tim Bradley is most likely on the cusp of of stardom, let's hope he gets the fights he should.

                      He's only 5'6" only two inches shorter than Floyd, and Manny is listed as 5'6.5" on Wikipedia.
