Well, we will just have to agree to disagree,,,Triangle theories dont work on me but sure if it makes you feel better. I have never thought much of Bradely but hes respected on here so ill let that be. Bradley and Khan were neck neck back in this day no matter how much you dont want to believe it. Could he have beat him IDK but he ran from fight or at least thats the mentallity on NSB unless it fits the agenda
I feel that bradley was superior to khan,,
but i will admit that was the biggest fight to make at 140 at the time,,,,
I dont blame tim though for going after the manny payday,, it worked out well for him,,,,
If khan had not fought tim and took a floyd fight instead, i wouldnt call khan a duck,, just a smart business move, plus manny and floyd are much harder opponents then bradley or a khan respectivelyComment

Running with triangle theories huh. Khan and Bradley were neck and neck in this day. I know your a HUGE fan of Pac and wish to believe Bradley is an ATG but thats not the caseComment

Neck and neck? Khan can barely keep himself off the floor against anyone, and he's still being built up as a future Floyd opponent, somehow.Comment

I don't rate Hatton vs Mayweather much at all. Not even a top 5 win. and LOL like I said, Hatton struggling but beating Collazo is better than ANYTHING Bradley did at welterHatton looked like garbage after 5 rounds in the collazo fight,,, then went back down to jr welter because he was garbage,,,
in terms of bradley,, he did what he was suppose to do vs an old joel and blow him out and stop him...
vs manny, he didnt deserve the win, but he performed much better than oscar, hatton, margs, clottey, shane, and even barrera did vs manny
I only brought floyd up because he has a fight similar to the bradley-manny fight,,,
And because you dont want to talk about it because you probably rate the hatton win very highly and think danny/lucas winner would be a legit opponent for floyd,, yet you think the bradley fight was garbage for manny, even though its the exact same scenario of floyd-hatton or lucas/danny..
Just shows your bias, and that your just a sugar adam ali hater,,,, but thanks for the discussion.....Comment

Can you read? Is Bradley still at 140? Did I not write BACK IN THAT DAY? Geez kid just stop im feeling bad for you right now. What does Floyd have to do with anything im writing...oh thats right its all you know.
Dont worry your tears will end on Sept 14th...oh wait im a flojob i forgot. HAHAHA!Comment

ok, i will give you credit for saying hatton struggled but won,,,,
IMO i think the ruslan win for bradley is pretty close if not equal to the hatton win over collazo,,, yes many felt bradley lost, but just as many thought hatton lost as well....
But the fact remains that at the time bradley fought pac, bradley was a legit opponent and not some dude off the scrap heap like mosely was when manny fought him, or an oscar larios or diaz,,,,,
Bradley was a top level opponent.....
You dont think hatton is one of floyd's top 5 wins??? im on the fence about how i feel about that win,,, good solid win but not as good as say
corrales
genaro
JLC twice,,,
but would be hard pressed to find another win as better on floyd's resume than hatton,,,,,
I think the hatton win was better than the oscar, shane, cotto wins,,, just for the fact that hatton was prime and undefeated,,,,,
Floyd beats canelo, that would top the hatton win IMO,,, so you may be right about the ranking of the hatton winComment

Pacquiao didn't fight Bradley after Ruslan though. He did nothing to warrant a shot at Manny at the time, don't recount wins to big up a fighter.ok, i will give you credit for saying hatton struggled but won,,,,

It's about the pre fight conceptions. Hindisight is too easy to discredit and is a fanboy move, and I don't count Hatton as a big win for Floyd nor do I Bradley as a big win for Manny.
C for Pac over Bradley and B- for Floyd over HattonLast edited by GRboxing; 08-23-2013, 06:03 PM.Comment

Got me, I misread. See I'm not afraid to admit. Legit point, Khan was a qualified challenger. Still he did nothing to overtake Bradley who'd beaten the next best guy in Alexander. And very quickly found himself very lacking vs Bradley's comp and others.Can you read? Is Bradley still at 140? Did I not write BACK IN THAT DAY? Geez kid just stop im feeling bad for you right now.
