    Pacquiao is one of Bradley's most iconic fights. Is it really wrong to bring it up? I was making a point. He's a great fighter, even if he took a loss to Pacquiao. Before the rematch, mostly everyone ranked him as Top 3 P4P.

    On Rios and Algieri, no. There are no where NEAR Bradley's level. Though, I will admit that Algieri is an underrated boxer. The dude straight up outboxed Ruslan with a nasty eye and after being knocked down 2 times. I think Algieri could outbox Terrance Crawford and a lot of 140 fighters right now.

    Rios isn't a bad fighter either. He just demolished Alvarado. He's a come-forward, hard-hitting dude. I didn't want Pacquiao fighting him off his knockout loss, even if Rios wasn't on his level.

    Are they World-class beaters? Heck no! Mayweather and Pacquiao are on a whole other level, so it's hard to match up fighters to them. There's a huge gap (which is only another reason for them to fight:-().

    So, to answer your question, no, Rios and Algieri are not world-class beaters who deserved to fight Pacquiao, but they definitely looked like **** against him! :lol:


    On Tim Bradley, he's nothing like Rios or Algieri. Nothing. Legit, P4P. Was undefeated. Prime. And a LOT better than when they first met. In my opinion, Bradley was the best defeated fighter out of every fighter who lost last year.

    Nonetheless, Khan vs Bradley would be great. A legitimate, proven opponent for Khan.

    Hmm, good point. Question is could he make it count? Khan has been known to clinch constantly when he feels pressured. If Thurman could neutralize that I could see a K.O.
    I think Bradley would give Thurman hell though with his stiff jabs and his crazy pressure/inside game. Bradley's only real problem is that he's CONSTANTLY dropping his left hand, but I feel like they'll focus on fixing that after Pac II and Chavez.
