    He certainly thinks a lot of himself and I can't blame him but he ain't fought as many top guys as Clottey and if he wants to fight Pac at 147 I wish him a painless death.

    If he's the undisputed champ at 140, why do people have a problem with the no.1 contender at 140 calling him out?

    Yeah...an Jr. WW, unproven above 140 is much better then a top 5 WW as an opponent for Pac.

    But if he wants to know what he has to do...someone tell Bradley it's called paying dues and earning a shot.

    Bradley has star potential, but he's far from a superstar. To datem, his biggest win is probably Kendal Holt.

    I don't know, is it me or are guys insisting on superstar treatment earlier in their careers then they used to?

    First Malinaggi.

    Then Foreman.

    And now Bradley.

    I expect there'll be a few more pipsqueaks emerge from the woodwork and try their hand at trashtalking.

    Can't really blame them as Pac is the ticket to the big $$$$.

    It's not just you. Guys want superfights the instant they get a title now. Then, they act like they've got the leverage to the point where they consider it unfair when they get passed over for more accomplished fighters. The irony is that those guys then pull the same "who the hell are you" card that gets played on them on any lesser known fighter/s calling them out. :lol:

    Coz Pacquiao is also the current WBO 147 champ, the current "Fighter of the Decade", 7 divisions champ, 4 time lineal champ, etc.

    At what weight do you think Bradley prefers to fight Pacquiao, 135, 140 or 147?

    Clearly 140 lbs. Pac is supposedly the undisputed 140 lbs. champ. He also supposedly walks around at 145 lbs and supposedly eats 7,000 calories a day(they even allegedly force feed him) while in training to keep enough weight on to compete at 147 lbs. With that being said, he should easily be able to make 140 lbs.

    So after the Mayweather fight fell apart, why would Pac fight a middle of the pack contender at 147 who has no belt, and is coming off a loss? This is a fight that no one asked for. On the other hand, Bradley has a belt, is the no.1 contender to the throne at 140, is a better fighter than Clottey, and it was a fight that HBO as well as many fans had interest in. I mean what has Clottey done that has so special besides lose two of his biggest fights and beat a washed up Judah? I completely understand Arum wanting to do an in house fight, and it's not like Clottey is a bad fighter. On the other hand, I can understand Bradley's frustrations given the totality of the situation. Pac is hinting at fighting at 140 lbs. in his next fight and Arum is hinting that Valero would be his opponent. Should Bradley continue to stay quiet if this were to transpire?

    I guess Clottey is an underrated joke then. TB most likely wanting attention to get a shot as well.

    Clottey would bash Bradley's head in.

    So what is your violent reaction if Pacquiao will politely ask Bradley to challenge for his WBO welter title (at 147 lbs)? :D

    I think Bradley will have no hesitations and will grab immediately the opportunity to fight Pacquiao at 147. :rofl

    Pac has a belt at 147 lbs. If he wants Bradley to come up to 147 lbs. to challenge him, and if Bradley really wants to fight him, he should go up to 147 lbs. However, I don't know why he would want the fight at 147 lbs. considering his trainer said his best weight is either 135 or 140 lbs. and considering he requested to keep his JWW Ring belt.
