Bradley is one of the best fighters to emerge in recent years

[Rome-By-Ko]

I forgot about Peterson and I barely remember Vasquez (that's not to be funny, I just don't recall the fight) His resume may be getting stronger, but to say he is "one of the best fighters to emerge in recent years" is a bit much in my opinion. As I said earlier, I think he is a good fighter; "Greatness" has yet to be seen and maybe it will be determined in this fight.




I do not think Ward and Bradley are the "same kinda fighter". (Aside from head butts) Ward, imo, is a hell of a more polished technical fighter than Bradley. I am not a fan of Ward, but I do respect Ward and his accomplishments - i think he is a great fighter.

When I said Bradley is "sort of like Berto" I meant that from a public perception standpoint. At the time when he was undefeated, the media and fans alike were hailing him like he was the next mayweather. He was a good fighter but far from great - it took a fighter with decent technical ability to take him out with no trouble. My bottom line is that Bradley is a good fighter, just not great (yet).

I appreciate your opinion and truthfullness...I never lost any money betting because I don't bet.

Berto was taking out by a live fighter,not so much a technical fighter..Difference in Berto and Bradley are that Bradley has fought many of live opponents while Berto was spoon fed...Funny thing is there is still no one giving Bradley all great praise,so there is noway Bradley is overrated in any sense of the word..Bradley is a good fighter,and like Ward can adapt to what ever his opponent brings into the ring..He has fought many of styles and has came out on top each and every fight..I don't know about you but that's why I respect Ward the very same reason's...

Bradley reminds me alot of Hopkins on the come up in ways. Bradley isn't exceptional in any area, and given the fact he wasn't born with a ton of natural talent, he's worked on his craft nonstop over the years, he looks literally better every fight I see him in. When you aren't born with alot of natural talent, but you want it so, so bad, you bust your ass like no other. You take care of yourself, Like. No. Other.

You don't smoke, you eat the right things to keep you healthy. You don't drink alcohol in excess. THAT'S how Hopkins is STILL fighting at an elite world class level. That's Bradley one side up, and down the other. All you have to do is look at mathed's avatar and it pretty much sums up what I just said haha.

No doubt about it....

Yeah, the saying goes: the stomach doesn't lie.

This is so true, you can never accuse Bradley of slacking off, the guy is a workaholic when it comes to training.

Reminds me more of Holyfield. Solid in every area, too willing to brawl sometimes, headbutts, not that big, constantly overlooked.

So you think Manny won't walk through Bradley, but will dominate Floyd?

I'm pretty sure I heard you say Manny would dominate Floyd and that Floyd was scared.

I find it hard to believe that even you "think" Floyd is scared of a guy who Bradley will give a long night too.

Right on time with the over hyping of Pacquiao's opponent.

[prinzemanspopa]

The only time I've ever been remotely impressed by him was when he fought Lamont Peterson,who,despite losing heavily on the scorecards,put up a hell of an effort and forced Bradley to fight.


All the other's were dull and tedious fights that nobody could honestly claim to enjoy.


And @ the comparison to Holyfield.
