Is Bradley 'elite'?

The record says he beat Pac it's official move on or we have to change a lot of fighters records.

 

If Bradley's not an elite level fighter , i dont know what is.

 

hell yeah... top 3 p4p

 

Ofcourse he is. If he is not then who is? On any given night he can beat any WW out there or give them a very tough fight.

 

By Elite you mean fighters like Ward, Floyd, Rigo? Then maybe not at that level. He's certainly a p4p fighter though.

 

he proves it time and time again although i thought he was lucky against pac and ruslan proved he aint no bum taking the fight to timmy like he did but all in all it as to be a yes imo

 

Most definitely. Bradley has been underrated for a while. It's high time we recognize his elite status.

 

He is an elite welterweight of his own era.

 

Bradley maybe at #5 p4p, I think elite is a gimme.
Problem is he is signed with top rank so likely he only has rematches in the near future
Provodnikov or Pac. both good rematches but still won't do much to change his placement on p4p or elite rankings?

 

He's absolutely elite. One of the things that makes a fighter elite in my mind is the ability to consistently beat world-class opponents. Guys like Witter, Holt, Peterson, Alexander, Provodnikov, were not elite in my mind, but they were world-class. You can be generous and throw Abregu in there too. Bradley is always able to seperate himself from those kind of fighters.

Another mark of being elite is consistently being able too seriously compete with other elite fighters. Whatever you think of the Pacquiao fight, Bradley, injured ankle and all, was competitive for all 12 rounds of that fight, arguably more so than for example Cotto. And obviously, Bradley just convincingly outboxed and outhussled a first-ballot HOF'er who was in everybody's p4p top-5.

You may not like the guy's style, but Bradley meets all the criteria for being considered a true elite fighter.

 

Yes he is clearly, look dont go discrediting the JMM win, Marquez was number 3 p4p going in and the betting favorite, Bradley is elite yes he lost to Pacquiao but he has to be a top 10 p4p after last night

 

Absolutely. He's hung with and beat (albeit controversially in some instances) other elite fighters, therefore he is one as well.

 

Yes he is, Alexander Pac JMM on his record he without a doubt is elite, you may not like his style but dont be haters, Timothy is elite fighter (disputed win over Pac or not)
Boxing fans are one of the worst on the planet, hyping fighters like Rios Alvarado that realistically are bums in comparison to Bradley and would not win more than one round if they faced him!!!

 

Well if Bradley is not elite then who is?
