    He has lots of them but he'd have way more if he had the hype machine behind him that E-Spence does.

    i'm from the UK, i wouldnt say high on him per se, but his talent is very respected, but this is based on what i've seen or heard though of course, someone else may view it differently

    I'm from the UK too and people are always saying Skeete is very good because he beat Egginton as if Egginton is special. Your right though I think he's one of those fighters whose clearly above British level so people are like come on get a move on but really if Skeete thought even a Felix Diaz he would be disposed of. Tyrone Nurse is another held in that regard.

    1000 ESB ranking points awarded to Serge for turning a thread about one of the most anticipated matchups in boxing into a Bradley Skeete one.

    Your right his WW career began just as Thurman began making noise, so in terms of the WW Bradley your spot on.

    Agreed, the Tyrone Nurse comparison was one i was gonna use, both really tricky, tall, rangey and well-schooled in the fundamentals

    Bradley is just a jackass for resigning with Top Rank when they don't really have a lot of solid welters

    Bradley's out for money, he has gone the way of Miguel Cotto now. He even admitted it a few months ago.

    Nurse is worse p4p he always gets involved in brawls when he doesnt need to. If he faces a puncher he will get stopped, he really went life death in his last fight with coyle.
