        If I recall correctly Andre Ward said that Bradley was the toughest person he's fought, they fought as amateurs.

          Bradley beat Marquez and Alexander handily, and is probably better ranking wise than anyone Floyd ever beat in his career... 140-147

            Tim has had himself a pretty decent carreer so far. I personally believe his best work is at 140 when he beat guys like Lamont and Devon. His 147 resume/work is average at best and i see Bradley as a B level fighter nowadays. I know Canelo and Cotto bring in the fat paychecks but Bradley should stay away from 154 if he is not trying to add more losses to his resume. Dude is decent but he doesn't bring much to the table against anyone, he is not a puncher and he is not exactly the slickest boxer out there either.
            If Floyd beat Bradley, you'd say he's a beast though... Lamont the PED cheat and the Devon who was dominated by Pacquiao's sparing partner were the reason Bradley's best work is at 40? LOL

            He beat Marquez, Ruslan and Abregu at 47' but that doesn't matter to you I'm assuming... that's an average resume compared to Devon and Lamont? ... he's only lost to Pacquiao at Welterweight, you do realize that? lol

              Yes because Maidana, The Ghost and Victor Ortiz are more elite than Bradley at 47, right?...

              Maidana the guy who lost 12-0 to the same Alexander that Bradley dominated...

              The Ghost who fought Berto at Welterweight...

              And Victor Ortiz the guy who also beat guess who? Berto @ Welterweight LOL...

              Nice try, Floyd fan boy... You have to be a Pac hater to be truly be a Floyd fan boy I guess...

                I don't think Tim will b giving up height, vs Cotto who's 5'7" & Alvarez 5'9" so a small advantage here. It's the strength vs physically stronger guys that'll b the issue, & his ability 2 box them over 12...

                  I honestly think that Bradley would school Canelo @ 54'. Bradley is used to fighting at the higher weights before his pro career.

                  Bradley-Canelo kind of looks like Bradley-Marquez imho. Canelo is a slow plodding guy who isn't effective against guys who get off first and get away from him... look at the Floyd fight and the Trout fight when Trout was actually moving..

                  Bradley would implant Floyd's game plan and beat Canelo as long as he doesn't do anything ******, i.e. do what he did vs. Pac in spots and Ruslan where he tried to go toe to toe...

                  Cotto would be a bad styles match up for Timmy I think because Tim doesn't have the power to keep Cotto off of him and Cotto can handle boxers..he can cut off the ring much better than Canelo...

                    Bradley vs Cotto is an interesting fight. Don't know if Cotto would be interested though. If he loses to Canelo maybe Bradley at 154 becomes an option.

                      I just don't find Bradley aesthetically pleasing to watch. When he boxes he's great, when he trades punches he'll lose to the bigger guys.
