Tim Bradley's contracts ends at the end of 2014 from what everyone speculates. So Tim has 2 fights left on his deal, he'll get the Pacquiao rematch and I'm sure if Marquez wanted it, he would give it to him too. After that he wins both those again, Mayweather would be waiting for the fight. Bradley at that point would have his character/boxer built up, and it would mesh well with Floyd's on-screen personality.

TB is P4P top 5...but he wouldn't win more than a round against Floyd imho....that's not a knock on TB or a dude like my man Swift...it's just a testament to Floyd's superiority atm....ain't nobody ****ing with him....he's on a totally different level and as we all know...there's levels to this game!!

Mayweather is going to have a hard-time finding formidable opposition, unless he fights a UK fighter like Khan in Wembley for CBS and put it on Sky Box Office which is PPV in the UK. Khan or Brook could get what he's looking for his protege Theophane, flamed out on his last PPV card.

I had the same issues with Pacquiao about fighting tailor made guys that made him look so great. I'm not going to blast either guy, but I will say that guys like Bradley don't have the same privilege. Bradley is 31-0 and has had to deal with brawlers, boxer/punchers, counter punchers, and technicians. He has fought top black fighters, european fighters, and Mexican fighters. Can we honestly say that about Manny or Floyd at this stage of their career??? I think its naive to think that either are as great as they have been hyped up to be. They are both hall of famers and the best of this era, but in the last four years their resume has been questionable. I will give props to Manny for fighting Bradley and I will give props to Floyd for fighting Mosley after he destroyed Margarito. But, these guys are being compared to the all time greats. How can that comparison be made if they haven't even fought each other? Now at welterweight, Bradley is the WBO champ, Alexander is the IBF champ, and Broner is the WBA champ. All are very good solid and talented champions. How is a fighter considered the best if they haven't fought the best in their very own weight class???
Bradley would give Floyd problems. On paper, Floyd wins. But anyone with sense and know the sport realizes fights are won and lost in the ring not paper. Speed is an older fighter's nightmare. So is it just a coincidence that Floyd hasn't fought any fast slick fighters of late??? I don't know if Bradley beats him, but I would bet my whole paycheck that he forces Floyd to dig deeper than he has in recent fights.
