    Rios should be a lightweight, junior welter at best. He's just a lazy fat wanker who didn't train for 8 months and then killed himself to make 147.

      Only reason Bradley lost the second fight with Manny was because Bradley was strong armed by the media and political pressure to brawl with Manny. Bradley could had simply boxed Manny to school, but because of the media pressure, Bradley wasn't allowed to box.

        I think Brook, Thurman, Bradley, Manny, Porter and Danny/Khan are all in the mix to fight and determine who the next "man" is.
        Porter doesn't beat the 4 names you mentioned before him. Danny has proved nothing at welterweight and only beats Khan and maybe Porter. Khan has chin issues, which will always show up against the elite.

          There is no "man to beat" at welterweight right now. Bradley's among that big jumble of fighters that need to face each other to decide who the Man is.

              The only reason Bradley vs Brook would prove who's the man would be because of Bradley. Not because of Brook.

                It is pretty impressive that after fighting Vazquez, Witter, Holt, Campbell, Peterson, Abregu, Alexander, Pacquaio twice, Provodnikov, Marquez, Chaves, Vargas, and Rios, that Bradley has only legitimately lost to Pacquaio, an ATG.

                Bradley is massively underrated. 11-1 vs. former world champs.

                    Bradley has got a very good resume though.

                      I agree with this, but I do believe that Bradley should be at the top of the list among the jumble of fighters. Porter-Thurman winner will have a lot to say about being "the man" at 47
