    Where is Timothy Bradley? has he been pushed to a side or what?

    Timothy Bradley's in the prime of his career and can't land any decent fights for himself. What's going on?

    A lot of the top 10 140 Pounders are pretty much matched up but a guy who is at a number one in the 140 division should at least still be in the equation.

    Is it fear? or the fact that he isn't a huge pay day?

    What's your take on it?

    He just fought last month in a year with 3 fights which at the top level is good.

    Look at the likes of Paullie Malignaggi and Amir Khan. They're both being matched with nearly every Junior Welterweight. and they both at the same time as Bradley.

    And yet you don't even hear about a possible opponent for Bradley? Dissapointing IMO.

    I think Bradley will start to be ducked by the names at 140. I would love to see him and Alexander square off.

    He will have some trouble getting any big names. High risk/low reward. He just needs to keep winning and I think he will eventually land them. He gets better every time he fights. Even though he is not a big puncher he is very entertaining to watch in my opinion. He's still really young. What is he? 25 or 26? He'll be headed to HBO before too long I bet and on to bigger and better fights.

    With Bradley on Showtime, and most of the major 135-147 on HBO.. is it even possible to match him up against the likes of Hatton, JMM, DLH, Pac, Mayweather?

    well with Urango-Alexander and Khan-Maidana already lined up

    I wonder what's left for Bradley? Campbell rematch a fight with Malignaggi

    or does he just sit idle waiting?

    this is who Pac should've fought in the first place. Defend his lineal title against the clear cut #1 contender. I would've loved to see this fight
