    I dont think Bradley can get passed Khan or Maidana let alone Floyd and Pac.

      Good point, I think it goes a lot like the Hatton - Mayweather fight.

        No one has an easy time against Bradley. What some goofs fail to realize is that Bradley and Alexander was the two most established fighters at 140, and thier styles make for an ugly fight. Bradley is one of the most complete fighters in boxing.

          The mileage he's had he deserves a shot at both of them.

            he'll make both uncomfortable. he's alot like hatton, just more skilled. theres no way u cant tell me it'll be an easy fight for those guys against them. even if they win every round, itll be close and nasty.

            mayweather has an easier time because hes a bit better on the inside. pac would have to maintain medium range and avoid the infighting situations. its not something he does well.

            both fights i wouldnt mind seeing.

              I don't know, I think he has a good chance against both. Hopefully we will get to see. Khan deserves the fight more but it's gona be a toss up as to HBO wants to put in there. I got a feeling they want Maidana for Bradley because of what Merchant said in the post fight interview with Bradley. HBO is big, big on Maidana. As they should be.

              I think Bradley beats Maidana in an excellent fight.

              P.S. Prime Hatton beats everyone currently @ 140.

                Hatton was just about as skilled but had more power. I give the edge to Ricky if it's prime for prime.

                  uhhh no... he doesnt beat bradley, he doesnt beat khan and i would favor ortiz against him but sometimes i dont kno about that kid...skill wise hes probably in the top 3 in the division, heart wise, he dont even crack the top 10.

                    hatton had more skill?? i dont think so. he liked to eat punches with his face. he wasnt as fast either. he did have more power tho. but bradley is much more technically sound.

                      Hatton was more offensive so yes, he ate more leather but he has a better chin and he was very skilled. He beat arguably one of the best ever @ 140 and a win over a very green Alexander doesn't mean Bradley's the end all be all ya know. Prime Hatton was a beast if u don't know. You probably only saw the Mayweather and Pacquiao fights huh?
