Does Tim Bradley take the first step to becoming fighter of the year in 2011 tonight?

[$tate of Mind]

I say yes, I like Bradley over Alexander by UD. I like Tim to also defeat Khan later this year if Khan stops b1tching about money and they fight. I think Tim is ready to take it to the next level. Tim is my early pick for fighter of the year in 2011.

I say NO. Even if he wins, how do he continue to build towards FOTY after tonight?

Amir Khan won't face him.
Pacquiao likely won't bother.
Floyd? LOL NO.
Maidana/Ortiz doesn't really brind that kind of quality.

Maybe if he fights JMM, and then manages to secure a third solid fight before the year is over.

This would be a great start but its too early to tell.

Floyd would fight Tim before Manny EVER would. Manny WILL NOT WIN FIGHTER OF THE YEAR THIS YEAR! The Mosley fight is a disgrace, Tim will not have that type of a disgraceful fight this year.

I agree, Mosley vs pac is a joke. I don't see how that would affect Bradley though.

Who do you think Bradley will fight this year besides Alexander? Be realistic.

Khan is too fast, too tall and too strong for Bradley. Wake up from your fantasy bro.

I think the winner of super 6 is a good guess for FOTY 2011, unless Pac vs Mayweather happens.

If you are as short as bradley you need atleast some power to succeed against the big boys. He hasn't knockt anyone out in 7 fights. He will never be a top boxer in this division.

If Khan grows a pair of nuts and fights him then I say yes. A win over Alexander and Khan and becoming the undisputed champion in one of the best divisions in boxing would solidify his spot as the fighter of the year. He would pretty much do what Sergio did in 2010.

Dude, he IS the top boxer in this division. I really can't think of anyone who doesn't rank Tim as the number 1 fighter at 140lbs right now.
