To be honest when you called him a punching bag i didnt feel the need to answer your question. Other than Floyd, who treated him like a punching bag?
And robotic? Guerrero is a very good combination puncher...... not robotic at all. I dont expect him to be lightening fast at the weight..... hes come through quite a few divisions. One Time has accomplished no where near as much so far.
And tbh, Thurman beating this bum wouldn't prove anything. It'd be a half-decent 'name' to have on the resume, but he's not better than Chaves , Quintana or Karassfor me.
Like I said, he can't accomplish much with everyone ducking him. His time will come though, they can't run and hide forever. When he's on top of the world, you'll be on the bandwagon.

He wont have to be on top of the world for me to appreciate him. Hes a good prospect but i dont see the greatness that others like yourself see in him.
At the moment he is just flavour of the month.

Let's not act like Floyd's best win wasn't 10 years ago. Sounds like a descent argument to me...
How can Bradley be P4P #1 when he isn't even the #1 guy in his own division?
You want to talk about question marks, there you go....

You'll see what Thurman's made of soon enough, the guy is near unstoppable at 147, I'm telling you.
And he's not 'flavour of the month', myself and others have been a fan of his for a while.

I will keep my eyes open, i give credit when its due. If he looks good against a top fighter i will be the first to sing his praises. But until then he is nothing more than a prospect and i believe "no boxing ability" Guerrero would give him hell.

Along with D.Garcia, Bradley's the most overrated fighter out there atm. The guy has unbelievable luck.
He's got great heart/will, but in terms of skill, he's nothing special. I don't even have him in my top 10 P4P atm, how people can have him in the top 3 is beyond me.
Beating B level fighters like Peterson and Alexander doesn't prove much. Neither does beating a 40 year old Marquez who has a history of struggling against fighters who can move.

And Guerrero obviously doesn't agree with you, otherwise he'd fight Thurman
