    A year and half ago 140 was the "hottest division in boxing". Bradley, Alexander, Khan, Maidana, Ortiz, Peterson, Matthysse, etc. Throw in Zab Judah as well. Who do you think has emerged as the best fighter from that crop since then? Alexander has nice win over Maidana, but seemingly got a gift over Matthysse. A lot of controversy/drama around these fighters. I'd love to see Bradley vs. Matthysse.

    Bradley, of course. He's undefeated, he just beat Pacquiao. xD

    On a more serious note, I think every one of those except Maidana and Peterson (and Judah) still has the potential to be great in the future. Maidana is a good brawler but one-dimensional, and Peterson isn't anything special.

    But now the top guy in the 140 division is Danny Garcia, if you exclude Juan Manuel Marquez.

    Out of those mentioned, Bradley is still clearly the best even if he lost to Pacquiao.

    I agree, but think his resume has been hurt by his inactivity and let's be honest he got a gift against pac.

    I scored that fight for Bradley, but it was razor close

    Beat Alexander,Holt,Witter, Peterson...all very solid B level fighters. He's got one of the better resumes active right now.

    Bradley ducking Khan outweighs any positives.

    I never liked Bradley as a fighter but he has the best 140 pound resume since Kostya Tszyu, maybe even better but I'll have to get my Boxrec search on both of their records before I can say who definitely has the better resume between Timbo and Zoo.......my bad if I'm slightly going off topic.

    Bradley got the Pac fight. He doesn't even have to fight Khan now. Call me crazy but I still think Khan beats Bradley.
