The Official Juan Manuel Marquez-Timothy Bradley & Undercards RBR & Discussion Thread

[bojangles1987]

Of course Bradley will have a strategy. Talking yourself up doesn't mean you don't have a strategy. Bradley will try to stick and move and use his superior speed. We'll see how it works for him.

You expect him to tell the world his strategy on 24/7?

[Rome-By-Ko]

I feel like Bradley and his team have no real strategy against Marquez. Its worrying that Bradley just continues to repetitively parrot the same thing about how a warrior and Marquez will have to kill him or carry him out of the ring on a stretcher to beat him etc etc. That all sounds macho and ballsy but in reality it seems to denote no actual strategic mindset for the fight other than another heroic attempt to fight the other guys fight at the expense of his own health whereas Marquez and his brilliant team I'm sure are devising exact plans on how to break Bradley down and come away with the victory. This is why despite showing commendable grit and toughness I expect Bradley to succumb to Marquez superior preparation and for Marquez to come away with another legendary victory.

What info has Marquez divulged about what his strategy is??It would be ****** of either of them to spill what their game plans are..No??

Both have hinted to speed being the key for victory..Marquez speed to try to pressure Bradley and trap him(which you know Bradley is going to make him do)and Bradley speed to hit and be out of range to get hit back..How they will go about this we won't know till fight night..

Seems like you need to pay better attention if I could be honest with you..

Slow as molasses journeyman provodnikov hit him all night long with ease but ATG Marquez won't hit what he can't see?

Because Bradley squared up with him and didnt use angles and movement. Do some research and look at some past Bradley fights.

That means he'd actually have to watch the fight though

Of course he has a strategy, he's just not going to tell you on some show.

I will say this as a trainer, the HARDEST boxer to prepare for is a counter puncher. Because he reacts to what you do, so it's all about timing and trying to counter the counter puncher which is playing into his hands.

I think this is still a bad style match up for JMM because of Bradleys speed and the fact he's not as aggressive as Pacquaio.

It will be very interesting to see how this plays out early in the fight.

Not quite, Provodnikov struggled to land on Bradley in the middle rounds.

If Bradley boxes on the backfoot he can work his way to a decision. From what I've seen Marquez prefers come-forward opponents so he can counter-punch.

TB has exceptional movement when he actually sticks to his boxing gameplan and avoids the temptation to fight inside.

I agree with the Bradley no real strategy post, he never seems to come into fights with a well though out gameplan, he adjusts but at first tries one thing then if it doesn't work something else in between wildly swinging with his head lunging forward.
