    Default Two guys you don't hear enough about.

    Timothy Bradley: he is so well rounded, and so sharp I am surprised there is so much made of Alexander and Khan, when this guy is clearly so much better than either of them. He has that effectiveness despite not being super fast that reminds me of Hagler or Hopkins. He just is always in the fight mentally and he has so many wrinkles that he has foughten actually a pretty impressive resume and has beaten a lot of tough guys at their own game. I am surprised there aren't more arguments for him being in the top 10 p4p, and just the fact he might be the guy who guys Floyd his more interesting fight just because they are very similar in a lot of ways(though Mayweather is more technical with superior speed). I think they both have that sixth sense which is so rare.

    Mike Jones: This guy is an amazing athlete is pretty well trained. He has very quick hands, and is 6' feet tall, and it's evident he has a lot of physical strength. I think I've seen small problems with his conditioning and he could probably get in better shape both physically and mentally, but he has good defensive skills, and he uses his height well to set up unique angles and combinations. My biggest problem is that he doesn't sit down enough on punches and he throws too many range finder jabs that could be countered over by better fighters, I wish he throw less meaningless punches and sat down more on what he did throw, but besides that I am way more impressed by him than Paul Williams at the same stage. I think with the right development he might also be a superstar.

    I have Bradley as number 3 P4P. Mike Jones has fought pretty much no one so obviously people aren't going to talk a lot about him until they learn more about him.

    Just would like to say that I think as far "technical" goes Devon is slightly better then Timothy...
    At this point Timothy has fought better opposition.

    I think Khan and Alexander get more mention purely because they've both fought more recently. Once Bradley fights again the spotlight will be back on him. And rightly so. He's a good fighter.
