Is Bradley the next best thing after Pacquiao from Arum's perspective

[Jim Tom]

Pacquiao will be gone in the next 2 years and Top Rank need someone to hype as the best fighter since Mahomed Ali?Could this be Time Bradley?
Is bit possible that Pacquiao will be fed to Bradley in the next 2 years to present Bradley as the superstar?

Bradley is lacking in skills

Bradley is lacking in skills

I wouldn't say that.

He is a skilled fighter but not on Pac's level by the age.

Arum needed someone younger TBH.

Al though Bradley is easily top 10 P4P in 1 or 2 fights IMO.

Nope. pop skank is simply gonna hype Bradley up as Pacman's next opponent. See what happened was while Pacman was there cherrypicking shot old fighters, Floyd set the standard with 2 back to back fights agianst Mosley & Ortiz. Which utterly exposed the Pacman hype train as all smoke & mirrors. Now pop skank realizes that they must pit Pacman against a young prime fighter. Having Bradley in their stable makes it quite easy.

I wouldn't say all that, Arum has been on Bradley's nuts for a minute...way before Ortiz even beat Berto to be in contention for Floyd. People for some reason choose to forget this. Arum had this fight, or the possibility of it, in his head since January at the very least.

And as for the TS, that's a good question (although I don't think you can convince the public Bradley is the next best thing since Ali, lol). I wouldn't know what to think of it, Bradley's prime, probably as physically prime as he can get at 27-28 (whatever he is) and to throw him at Pac...I'm not sure what Bob is thinking. It's very unBob like, but we'll see if it even gets made. Bob might not make that fight until Manny is older...I could expect it from Bob, he's a jack*ss.

If Arum thinks he turn Bradley into a star then he truly is turning senile now. Bradley has the personality and charisma of a cardboard box, he will never appeal to any audience outside of hardcore boxing fans.

Fighting old past his prime Mosley and Ortiz is the standard?

Wow WTF man you have really lost it. Some of you guys are a joke.

Bradley is good, but the next cash cow of Top Rank is Jose Benavidez and Guillermo Rigondeaux, Donaire and probably Gamboa

Come come now boy, the past prime Mosley was the lineal champion at welterweight when Floyd fought him. But just in case you did not know, Pacman fought him a year latter coming off of a draw with a contender. So really who's lost what? Or did you forget that was indeed Pacman's last fight, dummy.

bradley doesn't have superstar quality... top rank might try to sell bradley as the next mayweather (featherfisted with a lot of speed) but the disparity in skills is too much...
