    I completely agree. That's why they need to fool the public by matching him up against bums to make his stock rise and then create hype for a mega fight against a big name. Like you said Pacquiao and Cotto would whoop him real good.

    At the same time Bradleys skills are still untested so we don't know if he's just decent or really good. Only time will tell. But Top Rank can do a good job of hyping him up and making wins over Maidana and Berto seem great. And who knows maybe he'll put up good performances against the big names.

    The talent, potential and record is there. They have material to work with but we'll see.

        Comparing him to Mosley is absurd.

            Not comparing skills just in terms of a draw in the future. He is not a draw right now but with the right build up he could be a fantastic "B side" for the stars.

              No..he has no drawing power, no charisma, no k.O. power and kind of fighting dirty with the headbutt..hard to build up a guy who hasnt fought any superstar/ppv draw/future hof of any kind..its probably too late if his next fight will be against Pacquiao.

                arum needs a name black boxer to pit against his puerto rican and mexican super stars.

                I forsee Rios vs Bradley in the near future.

                    Personality wise I used to think he was pretty dull, but he surprised me and actually sounded pretty cool in the boxing scene radio interview. Probably still not enough to be a superstar though.

                      Why is everybody saying his personality? So who has that super swag, huh?
                      Manny with his " uh uh uh". Or Margarito with his Los tigre del norte sunglasses on. Damn and Margarito even needs a translator. He can't even answer the questions. So if anything his translator has the personality. lol. The list goes on and on. I dont think he will be a megastar, but with that other **** Gtfo.
