    Hatton would never fight bradley, he just doesnt have that "name" for hatton to reel the money in.

    Khan vs bradley is where the money is at, but if i were their promoters i would build the rivalry up and make it big

    You are really blind, Sheik.

    Read the post again. He is becoming a superstar. He is not saying he is a superstar.

    Got it?

    Ok, Bradley humiliated Junior Witter, I will give you that. But actually Amir Khan would beat Desert Storm .

    Bradleys building up a nice lil resume.

    Witter is a handy name for this stage in Bradleys career.

    Also, Holt aint no pushover either.

    They were both massive risks at the time.

    Then he has Peterson on there, who should do it justice
    in the coming years, as would Khan if Bradley were to get
    that fight and defeat him.

    By the time Bradley was fighting the top dogs, his resume in
    a way, most likely would still be strengthening on Peterson and
    Khans deeds alone, just like I believe Vitalis success isnt a bad
    thing for Lennox.

    I'd like to see him face Khan, Ortiz, or Devon Alexander maybe after he gets a good win under his belt.

    ****.. I think Bradley would starch Hatton. Problem is, seems like everybody would rather bank on Hatton's popularity then let some of these talented young fighters take the torch. I was never really impressed by Hatton so maybe I'm biased
     
  8. Nah, he's no superstar. He's the type of guy who will fare well in his respective division but I don't see him moving up in weight and making any noise.

    He's done well since he picked up the belt in the UK. Good boxer, but I don't think he will become superstar.

    First he must clear up his division, a very talent rich division. I feel he will lose his 0 soon, I can see difficult fights in Maidana (pressure fighter who stalks for 12 rounds throwing bombs) always expect the unexpected with Maidana. Also Ortiz, Yeh he got into a gun fight with Maidana, but you don't become a bad fighter overnight, I'm sure he will improve, he has good KO power on both hands and he is a huge 140. I can see him giving Bradley many problems. Along with that you have re-born malignaggi, no pushover can take a shot or two and has a good jab, any fighter with a good jab is a hard fight.

    Even if Bradley was to win these fights, to become a superstar you gotta weight jump, can Bradley with the dudes at 147. I.e Andre Berto & co, I don't know.

    But anyway not a superstar in the making but a good fighter. I don't particularly enjoy watching his fights but hes done well and I hope he continues to do so.

    I see him in the mold of a Chad Dawson

    in the sense that both are very talented .. but probably don't have enough competition or have enough personality

    to transition into the level of Superstar status

    I get the feeling is is thought of more highly in the UK than he is the US.

    I have a few casual boxing fans as mates and they always ask about Bradley asking if there is a way for them to see his fights etc.

    The same freinds had no idea Pavlik was fighting last night let alone still the MW champion lol

    After seeing Bradley come over to the UK as a relatively unknown and hand Junior Witters ass to him, id certainly agree with the sentiment that hes regarded quite highly in the UK.

    I personally believe he has everyone at 140's number, aside from Pacquiao who i dont even think will fight at that weight again anyway.

    Certainly one for the future, would like to know where some of you guys place him p4p?
