    Default Do People still have Bradley in their top ten p4p?

    I know Boxing News have him at either 3 or 4 and have done for some time. I've never understood why. Where's everyone else got him?

    I think it was a decent performance from Bradley. My only real criticism is that he stepped off the gas and definitely lost the last round and got hurt because of it. However, Bradley won the fight handily and it was in some ways a reversion back to the Bradley of old. Fighters get hurt in fights, it happens. Still a top fighter IMO. Tough for anyone to beat.

    Bradley is exciting... he just doesn't have the power one expects in today's era. He has done a great deal without it however. You just can't hit him cleanly, and he always comes to throw MORE PUNCHES than you can and will.

    I would have to rank him in the top 15, at least.

    Yes, I'd leave Bradley in my top ten. Always fun to watch always shows up to fight, he's had some gifts but recently had a few go against him. I always liked Bradley, except for a while after the first Pac fight.

    I like Bradley. Definitely a top 3 147 pounder. (Yes, I got him over Kell Brook).

    I admire his confidence and honesty. His overengaging is his only major flaw. I enjoy his fights though...

    I think hes behind Floyd, Pac, Brook, Thurman and Khan at 147 (well I think thouse guys beat him). Him and Porter be interesting fight.

    I don't know what p4p is other then a favourite list and am not a big fan of Desert Breeze but he's the most deserving 147 pound fighter right now for a Floyd fight on pugilistic grounds.

    Bradley's a great talent. If he could stay focused and not over exchange then he'd look a lot better.

    I thought he fought masterfully against JMM, and deserved the decision 100%.

    The guy is tough as nails and always seems to find a way to win.

    Brooks beat Bradley as does Thurman. He is lucky to be in the Top Rank camp because it is protecting him against the best fighters.

    Bradley reminds me of Holyfield to a certain degree. He tends to fight down to his level of competition at times, but is capable of producing excellent displays of skill and discipline when he needs/wants to. I view him as a better/more polished/more athletic version of Danny Garcia, able to figure out the other guys weakness and exploit it for the ugly/close win.

    I would put Bardley in my top 12, not sure he makes my top 10 at this point. I am sure I will be in the minority, but I personally would keep Khan, Brook and Thurman away from him at this point. All of those guys are solid fighters for the most part, but I just see Tim exposing Khans frailness/lack of durability and Brooks/Thurmans lack of experience. Brook has the best shot to beat him, in my opinion, but it would be an EXTREMELY dangerous assignment at this point in his career.

    I fear that Bradley has become more of a Meldrick Taylor, choosing to brawl it out and make his fights a lot harder than they should be.

    He desperately wants to be a KO artist, but it's just not in the cards for him and he needs to accept the fact that he will be relying on the judge's scorecards in the vast majority of his fights. He's a border collie trying to be a pit bull. He needs to cut that shit out.

    For me I never saw Bradley as p4p fighter. The majority of the time while enthused and all efforting, fans are yelling what bad judgment he has and one track mind on being something he's not. I actually thought Vargas again showed many holes on Tim late who outside of Marquez fighting like a inside trap slugger, does not deal with handspeed and counters well or look or act p4p. He's one where you block the top portion of the screen and just watch the feet live. He literally walks into counters on his toes.
