      He's a solid fighter with a bit of everything, but he's not outstanding in any area. He's got heart and determination as well as good athleticism, but he hasn't got any specific boxing qualities that stand out. He's not a 'slick' boxer contrary to popular belief, he mixes it up and shows a bit of everything like I said, but the likes of Ward, Mayweather, Lara, Rigo are 'slick' and naturally gifted 'boxers', they're streets ahead of a pretender like Bradley.
      Maybe your new to boxing or just forgot but bradley unified the 140 division twice. Intact 140 didn't start getting interesting again til bradley left...

        Bradley holds victories over 4 current champions who else has even done that? He may not have the flair of say a mayweather or pacquiao but the guy is definitely elite!

              Ortiz will beat him.

              Don't be shocked when it happens.

                i consider bradley as a good fighter meaning he's a tad above mediocre. I'd highly doubt if he'll be considered as an elite fighter.

                    With Bradley's unbeaten record and his resume since he won his 1st title, I would seriously dispute him not being elite.

                    That said, he lost to Pacquiao wide.

                      I think he's 2nd or 3rd best at WW (depends on how Pac looks against Rios) and he's definitely top 10 p4p IMO. But opinions are like assholes, we all have them.
