    What is it, did it change for you for better or worse, and where do you now have him in your rankings?

    For me, I guess its still the same way I felt before the fight. I have to rewatch it because I didnt get to see it like I wanted because there were other things going on but I still felt that this fight was all about Pac.

    I thought anything that happened was because of what Pac did or didnt wanna do or couldnt do. I dont think Bradley did anything positivie personally.

    I mean that in saying that even if you think he won or won rounds, to me it wasnt because of anything he was doing and he still looked like a amature much of the time. I felt that Pac clearly looked a class over him even if you think he won but he was just maybe a lil past it or didnt have the fire at times.

    Im still a big Bradley fan but to me this fight proved that he's not in that top notch class, atleast not at WW. Its weird because he may dominate a guy like Peterson but I think Peterson is alot more skillful. On the flip side I think Im a lil too hard on him because I always say that most guys will look like crap against Southpaws, espically one as good as Pac.

    Basically, I think Bradley is the man at 140 but not unbeatable. At WW I think alot of guys would beat him. Therefore, I dont know how to officailly rank him. Honestly though, I was a lil dissapointed in him. Its weird because

    I thought Pac would stop him in the early to mid rounds which didnt happen but I feel worst about Bradley than I did before that predicition. I think its because I saw some decline in Pac and yet he looked classes better than Bradley to me even if you thought Bradley won. Its hard to explain

    Gone down somewhat. He doesn't deserve to walk into another shot at Pacquiao.

    Good fighter, more versatile than I thought, **** balance and footwork, bald.

    He's a respectful guy, I like him for the way he acted and fought but the robbery still leaves a sour taste despite it not being his own wrong doing.

    Last night was a rude awakening for him. He knows deep down he's not on the level.

    solid fighter, entertaining fighter, quality guy that lacks power and therefore can't be elite no matter how hard he works, and he will work as hard as he can.

    I like the guy

    For better of course, the guy seems to have been in operation "Desert Storm" and in front line, rough, tough, commited, everything. I wouldn't call him a virtuoso boxer but he's a fighter, a better than very good fighter. Team Pacquiao underestimated this guy, that's fo'sure, But you know what they say, you pay for your mistakes in this life...

    Can't block a straight left to save his life. He will have a **** load of problems against Mayweather.

    Bradley knows he lost. Only the blind floydiots making a case for him. This a robbery to set up the rematch for more $$$$$. Thanks for greedy Arum. We all know what will happen in rematch that Pac will ko Bradley this time around.

    Good fighter! Great heart! Brawled with one of the best fighters of all time… and still managed to stay on his feet. Seems like a nice guy… what’s not to like? That said, Manny clearly won the fight.

    A great fighter that beat Pacquiao and will lose to Mayweather in the future.

    Bradley's far from great. So is Pacquiao at this stage.

    A little perspective would be nice here, people. Even somebody like Jose Luis Lopez would've crushed both of them last night.

    Manny's ass not the champ anymore so Bradley doesn't care if he is deserving to fight that bum for the second time.
