    After Floyd's retirement, there isn't any, including #48.

      Bradley looked like crap against Abregu and people started to lean on Alexander but then a few months later Alexander got outboxed by Kotelnik and the momentum shifted back to Bradley.

      Anyway, Bradley was the betting favourite.

        Yep, the hype around Alexander was growing until he laid an egg against Kotelnik.

          I've said that they should have had a tournament for weeks now...

            Yep. The glory in the WW division is now through Bradley. I see no other way.

              Why? Because he beat Rios who isn't ranked in the top 10 whilst being a huge favourite?

                Bradley vs Brook decides who "the man" is. He beat Bum Bum Rios

                  Bradley vs Brook will decide this. Brook already beat Porter so if Pac moves down for TC, Kell vs Timbo establishes the new lineage.

                    He would be in the mix but there is a lot to sort out at 147 at the moment.

                      Even his wins at 147 are against 140lbers.
                      He just beat a light heavy weight last night.
