    If Bradley fights and beats Marquez, Pacquiao in a rematch, Rios, Broner, AND Maidana, how strong would you say his resume would be?

    That would be pretty strong, although it hinges on some significant factors, like whether Pac wins against Rios and how both guys look during, and whether Broner can look better against an elite 147 pounder than he did against Paulie etc.

    If Pac looks shot and wobbles to a points win over a bloated, lazy looking Rios, Bradley beats them both, it wouldn't be that impressive. But if Manny looks like the version from 2010 (unlikely) and Rios is there grinning and firing leather the whole way, and Bradley manages wins over each, that would say a great deal. The same can be said for the other fighters mentioned.

    The fact is, Bradley has a solid resume at the moment, even if you count the first Pac fight as a loss (which you should). He has the wins over Witter, Holt, Alexander, and Ruslan. Throw in the nice wins ovr Cherry and Abregu as well.

    Bradley's win over ruslan is very questionable

    Pac kicked Bradley's arse. Pac needs to fight Bradley again ASAP, after he knocks Rios out..................

    I would'nt put much stock in that showing. Bradley was not anywhere close to real championship shape.
    He looked thick and bloated. I'd say about the same type of shape DLH was vs Felix Sturm many years ago before his fight with Bernard Hopkins.

    It's the best ever at 140. I don't know if that's all that impresive.

    Not really. The W over Pacquiao is questionable (not "OMG worst robbery of all time!" - it just should've been a close but clear 115-113 loss for Bradley, that's all)


    With Provodnikov he stupidly fought down to his level of opposition and painted himself into some tight corners and had to overcome some adversity, but scoring it RBR there is nothing questionable about the result. 114-113 Bradley is how I and most other fans had it.

    What fix? People act like Ross and Ford scored a shutout for him or something. 115-113 Bradley is wrong (I had it by the exact mirror score put out by Roth, 115-113 to Pacquiao - and would see even a draw as stretched a little too generously Bradley's way) but it's hardly ridiculous given how close that was. It's hardly the worst scoring of all time. People just get their panties in a twist because it's their beloved Pacquiao, as if somehow a slightly bad decision going against him is the most egregious thing ever to happen in a sport with a long tradition of horrible decisions of which this doesn't even crack the top 1000.

    Its allready been proven that Rios and Maidana are non-elite, b level at best fighters.
    I have no clue how you could call that a top resume.

    Broner is undefeated but looked very beatable against a featherfisted B-
    type of fighter in Malignaggi.

    Agree with IB. I've seen the Pac-Bradley fight a couple of times and it was close. One of the most biased commentating i've heard by the HBO crew had to heavily sway a lot of opinions. Shots that Pac weren't landing were constantly getting oos and ahhs from the crew while Tim wasn't getting any credit for his landed shots.

    And Tim already has one of the strongest resumes in boxing. He continues to get over looked time and time again. He WILL beat Jmm.
