    I see Bradley as having a under-rated chance at getting a Floyd fight.

    If Floyd's worried about making too much money this year, or going straight into a Pac-man fight with possibly a new trainer, I could see Bradley being a good option. A respectable opponent, P4P rated, who wouldn't be physically threatning to him. Also he could afford to be a little aggressive with Bradley and make it entertaining, perhaps creating positive press afterwards. What do you think?

    Johnny Drama wouldn't buy that PPV.



    That fight would be good therapy to my troublesome nights when I can't sleep thought.

      I would watch that fight, but we already know Floyd can out box all boxer types. I'd rather see pac and floyd switch dance partners in that scenario. Then Floyd vs Margarito and Pac vs Bradley. Floyd vs a brawler and Manny vs a boxer good matchups because stlyes make fights.

        True, you have a point there, though I don't think too much at all of Marg and would rather see Angulo instead. Best case scenario would have been Floyd vs Berto and Manny vs Bradley IMO. Bradley has a better chance against Manny than Floyd (Though I still think he loses), and at least Berto can say that he's physically theatening to Floyd.

          I think it is funny how some people are really underestimating Bradley, I don't think he is ready for Mayweather or Pacman but I like Bradley's chances against any other fighter in that division, only way to find out is if they actually fight and I don't see Mayweather or Pacman fighting Bradley anytime soon

          Bradley style actually makes up for his lack of size or lack of a reach advantage, and make no mistake Bradley does have some pop in his gloves but he is also smart when using his Power, he doesn't risk losing a fight by chasing a KO

          people are making the mistake that just because he doesn't always go for the KO, that means he does have ANY POWER and that is far from the truth, some boxers just don't depend purely on power ALONE to beat their opponents

            Fail...Pacquiao or move to 154lbs...nothing less will remove the "ducked Pacquiao" rep for now....

            My bad....staying on topic to thread....Bradley actually is a live-underdog to land a fight with Floyd...but Floyd would EASILY out box Bradley....as much skill as Bradley has...and I'm a big fan of his....he is no where near ready for Floyd or Pac...he's just trying to get paid nicely.

              Nah, Bradley is too risky for the reward. I'd like to see that fight but he will have to drop back down and fight Alexander later this year in December or in January to kick off the new year

                  I see Floyd fighting in May 2011.

                  Anything else not likely IMO.

                  He is the new Oscar taking the Oscar date.
