He has a good personality, he likes to mix it up, he has shown great heart, not sure how he ever got up from that Holt knockdown but he lacks that one thing that is so crucial in boxing and that is crowd pleasing knockout power.

    Same reason doubles hitters are not as popular as home run hitters or why shooters arent as popular as dunkers or possession WR's arent as popular as speed WR.
    Personality? My snails have more personality then that guy, he makes paul Williams look like Ricardo Mayorga personality wise.

      Guys that knock their opponents out get more attention. Despite all of Bradley's accomplishments at 140, people were high on Alexander because of the Urango knockout. Knockouts have that kind of affect. Bradley's last knockout was in 2007.

      He only gets 2000 people in his hometown, so he won't be bringing big fights home. He doesn't really have the trash talking personality. I guess these are the things that make him relatively unknown.
