    If he beats garcia or matthyse

    You gotta say he's above mayweather in the atg ranking as he fought anyone worth fighting

    A khan win wouldn't really do much for his résumé tbh

    If he actually beats PAC in a rematch and then floyd

    He will be a top 10 of all time

    Ahead of dlh, sweet pea, Hopkins

    "He is an elite welterweight of his era"

    True. Best i've seen it put so far in this whole thread.

    If you're one of the top twenty/thirty/fifty boxers on the planet I'd say that makes you elite.

    But to some of these internet dwellers every boxer is a bum.

    Just look at the names he fought damnit. He's clearly elite. Say what you will about the Pac fight but he won clearly over marquez.

    Then he almost cleared out the entire divison below so I think he clearly deserves to be rnaked in the top 10 p4p.

    That still means he's elite. Understand?

    THAT'S DAMN SHAME :verysad the hate tim gets is disgusting. he's still so grossley overrated it aint even funny. is bradley elite ? man desert storm been elite since his days at 140. he was the best at 140 when ever one thought khan was and he is proven to be one of the best at 147. timothy can fight his ass off and box his ass off, the guys he fights should thank GOD he dont have ko power. that would be unfair, i cant believe someone would ask if he is elite or not. alot of people of have a 3rd grade mentality when it comes to boxing and when it comes to picking who has the goods and who dont. i knew for fact bradley would be a problem for anyone after watching him at 140.
