    The problem is he can't get fights in a Haymon dominated division. So when discussing welterweights he is ignored because the potential matchups with him that are being discussed can't realistically happen.

    There is nothing for him at Top Rank.

        Yeah, this. Every time I think of Bradley, I think of all the fights he can't have.

          Bradley seems fat and happy which isn't a great place for a prizefighter to be.

            That's why this cold war thing is far from over. They don't even honor mandatories, ie, Quillin giving up belt, let alone normal fights between fighters of different promoters.

                His heart is not in it as it once was

                I see him retiring soon

                I see him vs Thurman brook and khan as all close fights
                I agree with this!!! I kind of think he is now on a slight decline...

                  I don't get this. He looked very spry, and explosive against Chaves. Even more so than against Pacquiao, although Pacquiao will make you look slower than you actually are, because you can't keep up with him, and you gas faster.

                    Bradley would beat Porter better than Brook did.

                      Bradley has always made me chuckle. What's with the lame nickname, Desert Storm, anyways? He was 7 years old when that happened and the guy has never served in the military. I think it's insulting to all vets. And yes, I know the feeble reason he gives about growing up in Southern California being why he uses that. I believe that as much as I believe Cotto will fight GGG in his next fight. Bradley is boring and dull and easily forgotten.
