You Gotta Love Tim Bradley!!!

Bradley rules. I'm still shocked that so many people think JMM beat him (he didn't).

Even without the "wins" over Pacquiao and Provodnikov, Bradley still has one of the best resumes in the sport.

I'd like to see him fight Maidana, Garcia, and the winner of Porter/Brook. If he beats all three of them, I think he'd replace Ward as #2 P4P.

Tim is good and have been a fan of his since he beat Witter. He is not a great fighter yet but if he keeps beating the legends like JMM then he will get there. I hope he gets Floyd and does not stay and fight another Top Rank fighter except Manny. That would be a waste.

The odd thing about Tim Bradley is I think Randall Bailey would have been the end of him if Randall got the shot at him a few years back

I mean Bradley has gotten up from some hellacious shots but I think Bailey's right would drop an elephant

Bradley gets credit for ring generalship but marquez landed the cleaner, harder shots...

Bradley beat JMM easy, I was surprised at how slow Marquez looked and his punch output was not enough.

I think we need to begin giving this guy more credit then what he is getting. The Pacquiao win is not his fault and did what he could to try and make that fight as close as he can get it. Get over that! The Ruslan fight is 2013 fight of the year and is one of the baddest fights I've ever seen. Bradley is pure entertainment IMO the only thing he lacks his that punching power. He could do it all and doesn't have a single style. He fights the style he needs to to win and has yet to fail him even in the Pacquiao fight. What he did to Marquez is similar to what Floyd did. He is a top p4p fighter for sure!

Can't wait to see who Bradley fights next!

Well said. The guy bores me me but I expect him to give Pac a better fight the second time around.

Bradley is an interesting fighter. I think he's underrated and overrated at the same time. He's number 3 P4P by many but there may be 3 or 4 welterweights alone that could beat him. I don't mean that as a slight, in fact in my view that's a great compliment. I like fighters to maximize their abilities and there is no doubt Bradley gets every bit out of himself.

On thee down side he has so damn much heart he could fall off at any time. I could see him getting like a more skilled Gatti where every punch hurts him and his heart keeps him fighting. I will root for him against almost anyone.
