Imo Devon ALexander is the best 140lber not Timmothy Bradley.

      Alexander might be the best, But Bradleys Resume in the 140 lb division Clearly makes him the top dog.

      I think both of them of them are great talents. But at the end of the day, your judged on who you have fought and the way Bradley beat Peterson was as impressive a win as I've seen in a while.

      Peterson was no walk-over, a lot of people thought he would win. I'm not even unsure that Peterson can't beat Kahn.

        Bradley's speed comes in his combination punching, kind of like Pac. Alexander's jab gets in there fast and he's quick with single punches but Bradley's feet are faster and he puts his punches together quicker.

        For the record....I really like Alexander as well, kid is the goods, I'm in no way trying to discredit him. I just still rank Bradley above him as of right now.

        They're the clear 1 and 2 though.
        Hey I was big on Bradley before people thought Witter would put a beating on him. If you look at the Urango fight all Devon did was throw combos. I like Braldeys footwork a little more at the moment, because Devon moves but likes to stay in the pocket and use his reflexes to avoid shots. However, I just can not see how Bradley could have faster hands. Braldey single shots are noticeably slower, and a lot of the combos you talk about are shoe shine type punches.

              I downloaded about 7 to 8 Peterson fights, I was one of the many people who picked Peterson to beat Bradley. **** I was wrong, Bradley impressed the **** out of me.

                I didn't see any sharp combos like Bradley throws. And Bradley's combos aren't shoe shine punches, Bradley just simply doesn't have the power Devon does, but they're solid punches.

                Bradley is also more versatile IMO. Bradley can fight on the outside(not as good as Devon), but he's also GREAT on the inside where I haven't seen much out of Devon. Part of that reason is cause Devon is so good that he keeps the fight where he wants, but it's still necessary to know whether a guy can fight on the inside for when the going gets tough.

                  I think Alexander is better than Bradley as well. While I am not a Bradley fan and I've had some hard feelings toward him for appearing to prevent this fight from happening, I kind of understand why he's avoiding Alexander at the moment. He doesn't want to lose before the HBO audience gets a glimpse of him and that is perfectly understandable. It's the same reason Khan fought Paulie.

                    Bradley is more well rounded. Can outbox the boxer and outhustle in an infight (Campbell, Peterson) this fight has to happen. They are at the top and need to settle it in the ring.

                      Yes, Devons inside game is stilla work in progress, but his timing, speed, and power keep his opponents at bay.
