    Who is Bradley more overrated than. How is he overrated? Who at 140 is better than Bradley?

    Hating ass Brits. They have all their hopes in that garbage ass Amir Khan and actually have the balls to try to put down a fighter that is not a product of hype.

    Alexander, Maidana, Kahn and even Malignaggi have a decent chance to beat Bradley IMO.

    Alexander? Yes. Exceptional talent
    Maidana? Hell No. Can be easily outboxed, as witnessed in Kotelnik loss.
    Kahn? Doubt it. Khan has terrible defense and his power and speed has been severly overrated, not to mention the glass jaw.
    Malinaggi? Now you lost all credibility. Malinaggi has never beaten a elite or near elite Jr. WW. His claim to fame is he took a brutal ass whooping from Cotto and split a fight with a pillow punching LW. Any top rated true Jr. WW will beat him. Expect a beatdown from the garbage Khan.

    Maidana is too strong for the light-hitting Bradley.
    Kahn would outbox him.
    Malignaggi would frustrate the hell of him(and I hate PM)

    The weakest point of your argument is thinking that Bradley is an "elite" fighter. Which one of his victories convinced you of that?

    As I said before, he is a solid fighter with very good skills but is not a great fighter(and I'm not trying to dis him at all).

    Strength has nothing to do with it. Maidana has no skill. He would get UD easily by Bradley, who can expertly box as well as stand inside and trade. We saw this when Kotelnik beat Maidana, we also so how easy he can be outboxed in the Ortiz fight, when Victor actually boxed instead of trying to go to war.

    Khan doesn't have the talent to outbox Bradley. Bradley is faster, more technically sound, has a better defense, and a better chin than Khan. If they fought Khan would be trying to run and fight off the back foot the whole fight.

    Paulie wouldn't frustrate anyone. Paulie has terrible defense, he gets hit cleanly in all his fights and if straight ahead Juan Diaz could hang with him you know Bradley could as well, not to mention this is the same guy who was TKO'd by the shot/club fighter that was Hatton.

    The dumbest thing you've posted in this thread is your belief that Bradley is not an elite fighter in the 140 division. He has shown that he can trade on the inside and box on the outside. He has shown that he can make quick in-fight adjustments. He has shown in his bouts with Holt that he can a great chin. He has continuly improved in every fight. To say he isn't elite is to prove you don't know **** about boxing.

    Bradley right now is the best and most accomplished fighter in 140. He has exceptional handspeed, great technique, and a lot of heart. The only one equal to him in the division is Alexander. The names you have mentioned are all in a lower class.

    I always saw Bradley and Berto as champs that won't excel.

    I don't see how you can compare Bradley's cleaning of his division and fighting the toughest along the way, with Berto and his string of WW title defenses against Jr. WWs and outclassing at the hands of Collazo.

    Berto is a joke and a true paper champ who will get folded the moment he steps up to championship level competition. Bradley is fighting elite level comp and dominating.

    Once again, you base all your silly arguments on the assumption that Bradley is this "elite" fighter. :lol:

    Once again you provide no support for your assine opinion of why he is not an elite 140 fighter. You rate Khan, Maidana, and Malinaggi higher when they have had none of the in ring success that Bradley has, explain that to me.

    I disagree... I think Bradley is very good. Better than Khan and Malignaggi. Him vs Alexander is a pick-em fight for me. I think he would have huge problems with Maidana's power, but I think he has a good chance to win against anyone at 140.
