Is Bradley a B-Level welterweight?

Judging by his fights at welterweight against Abregu and Pacquiao is Bradley actually a B-level fighter at 147?
I think he looks much better at 140 but at 147 he looks very average. We all know Pacquiao beat him but it probably doesn't stop there. How would he do against Brook, Ortiz, Berto, Bailey, even Jones. Possibly a very good chance he gets beaten by all of them?After reading this and thinking things over I am going to say Bradley is an A+ welterweight just below Floyd and Pacquiao. I favor him to beat anyone else at 147. He has alot going for himself. He has lots of heart and determination. He trains extremely hard. He has great stamina and can throw lots of punches all fight. He takes punches very well and has good speed and skill.Other than the Pacquiao fight he has won all his fights by a good margin. He beat Alexander and Peterson easily. He fought much of the Pacquiao fight with bad ankles which had to handicap him.Who beats him then? He already beat Alexander...at 147 he'd beat him worse because he has more power. Tim also beats Berto, Ortiz and anyone else you throw in there. A-level guys were getting trashed and destroyed right and left by Pac....that didn't happen to Bradley so I'd say he is a step above almost anyone at 147.
Laughing at the idea of people saying these guys stop Bradley. Pac apparently hit him with 190 power shots and couldn't even make him bleed but lesser guys will stop him....I see the logic.Comment

Whatever he is now, he's going to be half the fighter after a Pacquiao rematch.After reading this and thinking things over I am going to say Bradley is an A+ welterweight just below Floyd and Pacquiao.

Bahahaha, yet you were the same ****** that was so quick to point out that what happens in the AMs doesn't mean **** when someone brought up the fact that Khan had beaten Ortiz in them yet you use it to justify your own point?
You are seriously one of the worst posters on here.
Not to mention you think someone like Randall ****ing Bailey would beat Tim Bradley
Timmeh would win every single round in a lopsided schoolage against Bailey.
Some absolutely ridiculous posts in this thread.Comment

This.
At 147 I could see him beating alexander again n also jones. Jones would actually be n easy fight for Bradley. That guy cant box for crap inside or out. Berto n Ortiz would b competitive for 6 rounds n then its all downhill for Bradley. Also for that Mathed dude that apparently dont know what his watching- Bradley has never relied on his power so I don't know what your trying to get at. Even at 147 Bradley has no powerLast edited by El Malo.; 06-15-2012, 06:54 PM.Comment

I am a Pacquiao fan and I think Pacquiao wins the rematch.I also believe Bradley has the heart, will power and strenth of character to come back stronger than ever from a defeat, even by KO. Pacquiao has come back strong from KO losses and so has Hearns, Joe Louis, Lennox Lewis, Jack Dempsey, Wladimir Klitschko and many others. It can be done.Comment

The AMs comment had a very valid point though seeing he blamed those losses on the size differential not to mention the fact Berto is even bigger & stronger now. I think his style is more suited to the pro game too.
Bradley would be better off at 140, just my two cents.
I never said Randall Bailey would beat Tim Bradley, the most I've said is he has a punchers chance which he would & I think you'd probably have to give Bailey a punchers chance against just about anybody at 147, even 154 & maybe 160 he hits that damn hard.Comment

Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather are A-Level fighters. Once they retire we will see nothing but B-Level Welterweights and fighters around that weight class fighting. Just because Bradley or Khan will be future champions perhaps even unified Champions that does not make them A-Level. They're B-Level fighters surrounded by B and C-Level fighters. Pacquiao and Mayweather are the only A-Level Welterweights.Comment

Tough one to call with Alexander.. he did look good against Maidana at 147 but he couldn't do much against Bradley at 140. I wouldnt be against a 147 rematch, even though the first fight wasn't too entertaining.Comment
