    Did you even bother to read where I said I wasn't impressed with Floyd-Cotto?

    As for 'Top LWW', put that into context. His most recent work? Blunt-smoking 2-3 Casa? The unimpressive mess with Alexander? Ducking Khan? Tell me what exactly Bradley's done to even suggest he'll be a factor at 147. It's not like he's bigger than Pac - he's actually even shorter.

    My point is I'm even LESS impressed with Pac-Bradley because watching Bradley's most recent fights doesn't make me even entertain the notion that he's going to be some kind of monster at 147.

    And lol on Cotto being full fledged JMW. Cotto had 3 fights at JMW, while Bradley had 2 at WW.. So you are telling me Cotto is full fledged because he has 1 more measly fight than Bradley...And before you insult Bradley's competition at WW, you might want to look at Cotto's competition in JMW too...

    You are also forgetting the fact that both Bradley and Pac would be coming in at the same weight in weigh-in, and at fight night.. so no one is crippling anyone or trying get advantage over the other...

    Its just you trying to come up an excuse to justify Floyd's choice of Cotto...lol..

        Bradley is an overhyped midget that has no fanbase and is going to get ****d. Mayweather and Cotto are two future hall of famers and will be by far a much bigger and better event than anything involving Bradley will ever be.

          This is hard for me cuz I like Cotto more than Pac and Bradley, but I see him losing a very lopsided fight tbh.. on the other hand pac/bradley is interesting becuz it could prove to be a very competitive fight, that is unless of course it's gonna be fixed as some ppl are speculating.

            Yes I know you are not impressed with Floyd-Cotto..You should have stopped there though..

            And lol that Bradley is smaller than Pac...People are actually has sayin that he SIZE, the skills, to beat Pac. Or at least be competitive with him...

            How was Bradley's recent work.. well its a lot better than Cotto recent work that's for sure...

            So what happened to your Cotto is a full fledged JMW argument?? Suddenly you changed the subject...lol

              I love Cotto but he's no longer his former self. I believe he still has two good fights in him, however.. but after this fight, he will have made enough money to live comfortable for the rest of his life and just retire. He deserves it. He fought every dangerous opponent at welterweight pretty much.

              Bradley is the better fight though, he is young and in his prime.. not to mention undefeated.

                I'm always going to watch a televised boxing fight if given a chance, whether its a big or small fight. That said, the last few years boxing has been the best excuse to have a group of friends over for the weekend, have a few beers (or thirty) and grill out. There's nothing like a boxing party.

                So, objectively, I think Timothy Bradley is a more dangerous opponent. Young, hungry, in his prime- if Manny is going to fight at welterweigh this is a top opponent; and what else can we ask of him?

                Still, Mayweather- Cotto is a hundred times bigger in terms of draw. It's a more fun event, with more interesting fighters, that I already know a room full of people are going to be EXCITED to watch.

                Nobody knows who the **** Timothy Bradley is. That Alexander fight was meant to change that and I think we can all agree- EPIC FAIL.

                I'm excited for Mayweather Cotto. Big fight, fun party, can't wait for the event itself sort of excited.

                This Pacquiao fight just has me interested, not excited. Nobody is going to give a **** ass about coming to town to party the month AFTER Mayweather-Cotto while Manny fights a no-name.

                Mayweather has better options at this point.

                  Nothing happened to my Cotto position. Did I say otherwise? Floyd taking on a full fledged JMW without some forced weight demand >>>>> Pac taking on a 140lb headbutter.

                  You've been pressed to explain your position on why Bradley-Pac is better than Floyd-Cotto and all you can do is stutter out stuff like 'But he looked good at 147, doesn't matter who he fought!' and 'He looked great against Casamayor!'

                  Bradley's recent work is GARBAGE. Are you serious? What in Tim's recent performances impressed you? Go on. Tell me how thumping on a half-blazed, half-dead Casamayor is better than any of Cotto's recent work.

                    You are nothing more than redundant.. Not to mention to that you keep harping the same old boring crap about Bradley's few fights as rubbish.. And yet you forget how ****ty Cotto's few fights were since 2009 (that's 3 years, you dumb****)..

                    You come up with the same crap story about Cotto being a full fledged JMW, but you forgot to mention that Cotto only had 3 fights at JMW since 2009 against mediocre opposition.. So how can you even justify that.. Oh wait.. you cant.. That's why you kept avoiding the subject...

                    And lol not explaining why Bradley is better fight... Well I have just been explaining for the last 3 pages.. Which of course you conveniently ignored, seeing how you are getting owned in the first place....But in case it doesnt get through to you.. Bradley is young, skillful, undefeated, has a better standing in the P4P rankings.. And that you cant deny....Oh and in his prime...

                    And lol on Bradley's few fights as garbage.. Casa, Alexander for LWW lineal title, Abregu, Peterson, Campbell, Holt..exactly in that order.. Only an idiot would call those fights are garbage..

                      We're talking about his performances in them, genius. Don't be a Boxrec goon and just look at the resume, how about his PERFORMANCE in them? You're telling me after watching Tim thump a baked Casa and that horrible Alexander fight, you were thinking to yourself: Damn this Bradley guy is gonna be a force at 147, this dude should fight Pacquiao?

                      Abregu is a NOBODY, Nate Campbell? Lmao. Okay.
