    Couldn't choose between Bradley and Alexander, but would put both ahead of Khan right now cause they been in better and tougher fights IMO, Khan ain't been put under real pressure since being KO'd. He maybe able to use his speed to keep away from that threat as his opposition improves but that remains to be seen. Malignaggi could beat Khan but ain't gonna bring the kind of dangers that are Khans major worries.

    I don't think Bradley is overrated though cause he has fought a good opponents of differing skillsets and beat em. So he is top 3 LWW and deservedly so.

    Silly title for a thread really

    Did you really think Devon was behind of the scorecard? It just shows there are many ****** judges that can't score the fight correctly.

    Ha.... Ha..haha ha hahaha.....hahaha.. Ha hahaha....hahahaha. Sounds like an Alexander fight doesn't it. I'm just clowning around, but that gets on my nerves after about 3 rounds. Hopefully Devon has a string of early KO's so we won't have to keep hearing his war screams.:D:yep

    Look at the thread title. Bradley overrated? Compared to what or who? Bradley is a stud point blank point simple. The kid comes to fight. Right now 140 is an exciting division and fans should be enjoying it for what it is. Not starting bull**** threads talking crap about fighters who are contributing to one of boxings best glamour divisions.

    Where am I talking ****? I acknowledge how good he is. I just think he is overrated and Alexander is clearly better.

    This is a boxing forum, you're supposed to argue who's better then who.

    If you said Alexander is a better fighter than Bradley then fair enough because i agree. But overrated? Compared to what? Or who? How exactly are you quantifying that? Overrated is a word that gets used far too often on this forum. A guy that wins 2 belts by beating two champions is not overrated in the slightest. Bradley is a guy that wasnt gifted anything. His talent alone has got him where he is. That is not the resume of a fighter thats overrated.

    Overrated in the fact people have matched him up with Pacquiao and Mayweather, have considered him an overwhelming favorite over Amir Khan, the clear best in the division. I dont think that.

    You must not really know Bradley to say the part in red because if you did, you know that's not the case. That's one of his weaknesses, his lack of pop. But he's got something you can't measure, and that's the heart of a lion.

    Bradley is exactly what boxing needs, a guy who lays it all on the line and takes on all comers.

    Let's not forget the people he's already beaten. Witter, Holt, Peterson and he would've whooped Campbell.

    Being a ferocious puncher isnt just about knockouts. He's sent both Witter and Peterson to the canvas and was rockin Campbell aswell with some nasty shots.

    He has heart true, but heart only gets you so far in this game.

    Hold up, so Alexander beats Urango, and all of a sudden he's more proven and better than Bradley.

    Kelly Pavlik knocked Jermain Taylor out. Bernard Hopkins was robbed by Taylor. What happened when they met?

    If you got power, and some boxing ability, it's easy to knock a guy out that's coming right at you with no plan B, and looks down when he ducks.

    Bradley on the other hand beat Cherry, Holt, Peterson, Campbell, and knocked Witter down despite being a non puncher, yet Alexander is better than him?

    Bradley has show amazing versatility. Alexander shows that he has power, but he is very hittable. There were several times where Urango was landing on him, when Urango was unable to land on Berto and Hatton (with the exception of a few times to the body) as clean as he landed on Alexander.

    How would Alexander fair against Peterson for instance, a guy who Bradley dominated? Honestly, I think he loses a decision.

    To rate him ahead at Bradely at this point is pure dick ridin which is a feminine characteristic. It prevents them from thinkin logically.

    Exactly.

    In my opinion, Bradley has everything but power because it's certainly not ferocious, in fact no where close.
