    Not every fight has to revolve around pac or mayweather. Thurman vs Bradley would be FOTY worthy and you might even get 2 fights out of it,

    good fight. thurman needs to step his comp after collazo.. pointless fight, but if he stops him it'll be impressive.

    Thurman is past the likes of Collazo, he took a step back with that one going from Guerrero and Chavez, I think he needs a serious test and Bradley would be just such a fight.

    That's a good fight! I don't give Thurman a shot vs Mayweather. Against Bradley, that'd be a good step up and real test for him. Bradley is awesome.

    Great fight I think Thurman takes it,Bradley has yet to face a big strong WW,. Since he's been at 147 all of opponents are guys considered JWW's. Outside of Pacquiao surprisingly he's been hurt or dropped vs them all.

    Thurman is actually a Welter with real WW power, though he's a decently skilled boxer Bradley is easily drawn into a fire fight this is the wrong bout for that to happen.

    love to see that fight but boxing politics will get involved. bradley is a top rank fight and thurman is with al haymon. pimp daddy bob is a hater and dont want to do business with haymon thats why it wont happen. good match up tho

    I agree. This would be a great fight. But, Bob Arum is suing Al Haymon...so it ain't happening.

    Would be great to see if Thurman is a hype job or real deal.
