    Judah? :rofl:rofl Kotelnik is more relevant and he also beat Alexander but was victim to the famous american judges.

    Bradley has only one fight againt a legitimate top 5 fighter in the division in devon alexander who lost his previous fight to kotelnik. Also bradley didnt really look great beating him(well you can make an argument for holt being in the top 5 at the moment bradley fought him) Whereas Maidana Fought 3 fighters from the top 5, beating one, losing in a very close fight to another and drawing(many saw him winning) with the third guy. And you re telling me there is no way of putting him above Bradley?

    Why? Cuz Bradley is American, or cuz the ring rates him in the top 10p4p which is a totail failure in itself.

    And i have nothing against the guy. Just telling it like i see it.

    Beat Witter, Cherry, Holt, Campbell, Peterson, went up in weight to beat Abregu and then beat the St. Louie out of Devon.

    Thats more than Maidana and kotelnik have ever done at 140 lbs.

    No way. I think Bradley goes in there trying to bully JMM and with the openings he was giving Alexander he would get punished. Bradley is very open for the uppercut and we know JMMs is one of the best. Bradleys chin is somewhat fragile so he would taste the canvas and also with the size advantage i think JMM would also taste it.

    I can see JMM using his combinations to the fullest here. I think JMM might actually be the taller guy with slighlty larger reach.

    There were definitely at least 2 rounds in the fight where Devon was sticking and moving, and comfortably outboxing Bradley (I forget which ones though, it sucked so much).

    Apart from that though I agree.

    Guy is just hating on Bradley.

    Bradley has beat the best possible choices to get to the top. People forget he went to England to fight Witter who was actually in the running to fight Hatton and not to mention one of the best at 140.
    Holt had just destroyed Torres and basically retired him.
    Campbell was unified LW champ...
    Peterson was one of the top prospects until Bradley made him look average.

    Bradley is definately number 1 in my book.

    :patsch You cant be serious with this crazy mess...You honestly need to go back and look at where Witter, Campbell, Peterson, and Devon was ranked before you make a crazy post like that. And doesnt have **** with him being American...Stop looking for an escape route.:verysad

    Khan - Holds an impressive Fight of the Year victory over Maidana in which he showed he could box and also grind out tough situations. Holds the most impressive victory in the top5.
    Bradley - Boasts a victory over Alexander and has decent shout for the no1 spot himself.
    Maidana - Biggest puncher in the top5, holds an impressive victory over Ortiz and and will be looking to bounce back after defeat.
    Devon - Rather fortunate against Kotelnik, he still holds solid wins against Urango and Witter, starting to look less and less impressive with every fight
    Kotelnik - Holds a debatable win over Maidana but should feel unlucky to not hold a victory over Devon.
