    clottey's never beaten a world class opponent.....neither has bradley.

    IMO, neither guy deserves a shot at pacquiao.

    bradley hasn't fought any world class opponents yet, clottey has lost to all of his. based on that, and based on fighting styles, i'd rather watch bradley-pacqiao than clottey-pacquiao, but neither guy deserves the shot, especially not a guy who lost his last fight.

      Right... going to the United Kingdom... leaving your own country to go and fight the #1 fighter and WBC champion.... *gasp* apparently isn't a big fight.

          Bradley is a world champion. He's never lost a fight. He's shown he can come back from adverse situations. Clottey can't make the same claim for any of those points. So yes, Bradley is more qualified.

              Nobody is giving him credit for losing imbecile I am simply stating that he can "compete" at a world class level. I'm not saying I ever considered Clottey a ligitimate threat to Pac but i certainly think he is much more of a threat than a feather fisted junior welterweight that's been around 2 min and has fought nothing but B level compatition.

                You're really reaching there. Ring rankings are not even a factor.

                  bradley doesn't bring enough money the table. but clottey didn't bring much money to the table either and he still got a shot at pac.

                  but shaw is wrong when he says bradley is bigger than clottey. clottey beat up diego (RIP), lost a close fight to margo and cotto. bradley hasn't had the same kind of exposure and Arum is right, that's because shaw didn't promote him as well as he should have.

                  what shaw and bradley need to do is beat alexander and khan, then he will be a much better and bigger draw for a pac fight.

                  This may not be ready for PPV but that's Manny's fault because PBF/Bradley would be a great PPV fight and furthermore what other options do Manny have? Cotto 2 and Cheato who shouldnt ever be allowed to fight again. Pac/Bradley @140 is a great fight, far better than Pac/Clottey-Cotto 2 or Cheato.

                    Sergio holding his own vs Williams and maybe even gettin robbed of the win like what happened with Clottey vs Cotto got him a shot at the Middleweight Titile didn't it???

                      And he got all that against good pro's not world beaters, *** if Chavez Jr wins on saturday he's gonna be a undefeated world "titlist" to does that mean hes in line for a shot at Pac too?
