All of those guys are at 147 other than Rios. Why should Bradley move up? Welterweight won't suit as well as junior welterweight because he's 5'6 with limited power.
I see five good fights for Bradley at 140. I put them in the below order because of risk/reward. Morales is the best combination of money and risk in my opinion. Rios is next because I didn't love his showing against Murray who is limited and he's with the TR so the fight could be made easily. Matthysse isn't a big name and can fight, so although I see Bradley winning, it's not the BIG type of fight Bradley desires. Soto would be good for Bradley, but let's be honest with ourselves, Soto hasn't showed us anything since jumping to 140 that says he is interested in taking that tough of a fight. If he dodged the Antillon rematch, he's sure as heck not interested in fighting Bradley. However, I see Bradley winning that fight and Soto is a relatively big name and unless I'm mistaken, works with TR. Guerrero is the least likely because he is with GB and also he would be a tough fight for Bradley in terms of styles. Agreed?
