    I don't see how Bradley is above Froch.
    Nobody even thought Bradley beat Pac the first time, then he was easily beaten both other fights. He beat an old JMM, by avoiding the action. Then he got brain damage from Provod.

    Froch lost to Ward and Kessler and avenged the Kessler loss.

    Very likely.

    What about Chris John? I didn't focus on him much but he has a heck of a record ( 48-1-3 ) making many title defenses and only losing his last fight. Worth an eventually HOF fame nod, just not in this loaded class.

    Proven being the key word, while Manny and Floyd almost definitely did use they were never caught ( Floyd kind of with the IV gate if it was Olympic level testing he would of been DQ'd for a failed test )

    Lol at least 20 fighters on thst list deserve it more than Bradley

    Bradley was just a standard good B level fighter who got some luck.

    1 Fighting in a weak 140 division.
    2 A gift against Pacquaio.
    3 having the name of the great Marquez on your win resume, but Marquez was never no welterweight.

    He should'vee had a loss against Provodnikov, and he drew with Diego Chaves!

    Being American, fighting in the glamour 147 division and being liked by all the american media guys helps inflate/overrate him too.

    Theres no way he should get in this early.

    So we only rank fighters based on their losses?
    Well **** Hopkins cos he lost his pro debut.
    And **** Donaire for loosing his second pro bout.
    Manny who is still a champ at welterweight... lost to a damn Flyweight!
