Bradley is too big to move down now, he's in a sticky situation weight wise because he is a massive dude who probably weighs 180 in between fights but he is only 5 ft 6 with 69 reach and would likely get destroyed at 154. 147 if probably the best weight for him.
I think Pacquiao will win by decision in their april rematch but Bradley is practically immune from the guys you mentioned Garcia, Broner, Maidana, Thurman, Mayweather and Khan since they are showtime and GB affiliates. I am of the opinion that any fight is possible and can be made if the rival promoters would just sit down and discuss but lets face it that ain't happening anytime soon. Too stubborn, too much tension.
That leaves Rios... lol he's a good fighter but why does Bradley need protecting from him? Bradley could box Rios to death for 100 rounds if he had to. Rios has attributes to be great but he lacks dedication outside the ring and is always in mediocre shape for his fights. He was moving UP 7 lbs in his last fight yet still need weight loss pills to make weight. in the ring he has great heart that's a whole different story but he just lacks head movement and struggles to cut the ring off, in his rematch with Mike he looked to be winning until the later rounds where Alvarado boxed more and he was puzzled, Mike ain't even that great of a boxer too. Bradley would probably win every round.
BQ: no, he's yet to become a superstar in or outside of boxing.
What fierce competition? Danny Garcia, Mayweather, Maidana, Thurman, and Khan are all with Golden Boy. Mayweather isn't but he does do business with them.
He avoided that by signing with Top Rank again to secure a rematch with Pacquiao. Rios isn't fierce competition and there isn't anyone on the Top Rank Welterweight roster worth fighting beside Pacquiao.
So likely to lose to Pacquiao.
One thing for sure Bradley believes in himself and that's all that matters, but on the other hand I can't see him holding the belt much more longer. I wish him all the success.
He fights in welterwieght division and he will have really tough competition ahead of him in the division. Is he even gonna last? Sure he beat an old Marq@ss, and somehow held on vs one of my fighters- Provodnikov, but i just don't see him being able to hold on to the title much longer, unless something is done to protect him from fighters like Danny Garcia, Adrianna Broner, Maidonna, Thurman, Mayweather, Pacquiao, Khan, Rios and etc...
Do u think he should or will eventually move back down to light to have a title if he loses soon?
