    After Tonight- Bradley's Chances Against 140 Guys?

    He gave a good performance but still I felt like something was missing. Actually Bradley looks like this in all his fights. He wins rounds and takes care of business, but doesn't quite look like a PPV fighter. You know what I mean?

    Imo Bradley CANNOT stop Alexander. Alexander has never been down and Bradley's cleanest shots don't seem to knockout guys. It means he has to win a decision against Devon. Tough job considering Alexander does have power and Bradley can go down.

    Bradley-Maidana would be an extremely entertaining fight. Maidana is very good at making people get into a tear up and from what I have seen in Bradley's fights, he also tends to lose the game plan and get reckless at times. The last round tonight was an example of that. Also seen it before in some rounds of the Holt and Peterson fights.

    Bradley-Khan could be a very tactical boxing match. It might be a boxing match that the more casual fans might not enjoy. Khan has a big reach and will use that jab. It is a shame that Abregu didn't have a jab so we could find out how Bradley would deal with a taller and bigger guy with a good jab.

    Thoughts?

    I think he has a solid chance of beating Khan, although I'm not sure how he will deal with the reach and jab. Holt had success with the jab, but he didn't keep up with it, Bradley can move his head pretty well though.

    I'm still not sure about Alexander - Bradley, I'll wait to see Alexander's next fight.

    And I think Bradley decisions Maidana.

      alexander beats duckstorm.

      timidly outboxes maidana.

      khan uses his reach and height better than this abregu cat and has a better jab. if not for khan's glass chin, I'd say khan beats duckstorm.

        He needs to stay at 140, in my estimation. I'm not ****ting on his performance, but I think that's where he would be most effective, and where the best fight for him would be at. Calling at Manny? Naw.....

          I agree, he looked good tonight, but he is best at 140. I wouldn't mind seeing him and Berto go at it though .

            Bradley makes little adjustment to his opponent's style...the tougher they are, the more subtle the adjustments. Bradley is the kind of guy that looks open to punches and what not but takes away all the strengths of his opponents while they can't figure him out. This is why he never seems to be a KO boxer yet seems to dominate everyone he fights.

            Alexander will be the same thing...close fight in rds 1-4 then ater that, Bradley will start to pull away and limit most of Alexander's attacks. Bradley wins a decision, maybe not a UD but a clear win..provided there is not some shady judging.

            Khan is not a bum ya'll..I think Khan beats Bradley and Alexander on the right day..he is the most protected guy out there though but he is not a slouch..his skill and athleticism are not just good but superior. I love Bradley for several reasons, not just his skill but his heart, character, and perseverance...he is more of the total package in terms of a true champion. Others may have slightly better skill but he has the "intangibles" that make a champ what he is.

            To all those who think just anyone will beat Khan though.....good luck with that..dude is protected for a reason..he has the natural ability that you will find in 1% of the top guys in any division..with the proper guidance, he will be nearly unbeatable.

              I make him a solid favorite against any one at 140.

              Alexander is the only I see giving him trouble.

              Not sure about Khan though.

              I need to see Khan in there with a good JW that can punch.

              Bradley doesn't have a lot a power.

              But I believe he has a enough.

              He hurt and knocked down Witter and Peterson.

              Two guys that have a better chin than Khan's.

                  I hear ya. The thing is, could Berto make 140? He is a tank. I think the fight at 140 that most of us want to see is, Tim vs. D.A.

                    I meant at 147, that's the fight I wouldn't mind seeing Bradley take right now. I too think Berto is too stocky and big.
