The welter weight picture is a mess right now and when it gets settled I don't expect Bradley to be at the top in a year or two.
    Brook is the only fighter in that list that he may be able to fight...whether Arum says he has no issues with fighters managed by Haymon or not

      Honestly, it's still manny pac..

      Beating bradley would be 2nd

      Then beating marquez

      Then beating Brook

      Then beating thurman


      But beating manny is still the biggest win you can have at 147 now that floyd is gone

        Manny seems like he's focused on politics.


        One more fight and I would want him to retire.


        147 is wide open IMO. These guys needs to fight each other.

          Whitter
          Holt
          Alexander
          Peterson
          Abregu
          Pacquiao x2
          Providnokov
          Marquez
          Vargas
          chaves
          Rios

          Who's resume is deeper at 147?

          What say you
          Tim is the man right now......in control of his destiny.

            Brook-Thurman will end up being the fight to decide who is the top guy at 147.
            Brook Thurman huh? Tell me, who the fack has Brook beat? Porter? now that's a stepping stone.

            I'll admit, I'm big up on brooks potential. But that's just it, potential. Could be all hype. But Brook don't decide ****.


            Tim Bradley > Kell Brook.

              You realize only 1 of those guys is a Welterweight, right?
              Wake me up when Bradley actually does something at WW.

                Weird, because 8 of those fights were at the WW limit. Go to bed princess.

                  Bradley has a better resume than Brook and Thurman but I think he loses to both of them handily.

                    I agree, at this point in Bradley's career, it's clear that the wars have caught up with him and his punch resistance is low..

                      Possibly, but out of the three of them. Bradley has so far proven he could consistently beat top competition.
