Tim Bradley vs Marcos Maidana who wins?

[JK1700]

Maidana at his best wins by decision. Bradley is well rounded but his indiscipline would cost him here, he loves to fight even though it's not smart for him and it's cost him several times. It would be a close fight but the Maidana that fought Broner and Floyd twice would take advantage of those moments where Tim loses his head and overall his energy/power would just be too much for him over 12 in a great fight. Bradley's kinda overrated to be honest. His record says he's only lost to Pacquiao but there's lots of other fights that could've easily been losses.

Bradley outboxes Maidana and wins a clear UD.

The only way Bradley loses to Maidana is if decides to fight him like he did Provodnikov. He would get knocked out for sure.

Bradley barely beat Provodnikov... how would he beat Maidana so easy? Maidana almost beat Floyd with pillow gloves.. he was a completely different animal after Garcia.

[BrometheusBob.]

I think Bradley would be more likely to win, in Devon Alexander esque fashion.

But if Maidana goes balls to the wall like he did against Mayweather he gives anyone a tough night.

Absolutely not, look Thurman is frail and can't fight on the inside and doesn't handle being pressured well!

Maidana would be careful early and stick to his jab and then take it to Thurman by the the 4th round and start mauling him like Porter did except Marcos has way more power in his punches and doesn't smother his punches!

Thurman would literally be running for his life by the 8th round!

Garcia? Lol Maidana would jab him up like no tomorrow and then wallop him with uppercuts since Danny ducks under when he throws that left hook!

Danny can't handle guys with jabs and good power and who can fight on the inside and Maidana would gladly make it a long night for him!.

Now, Spence would be problem due to his size, strength, power and length!

Marcos would have to get dirty with him like he did Floyd and literally fight every second of every round to make it uncomfortable and hope Errol gasses late!

But I'd pick Spence to stop him in the 12th in a real good fight!

Go back and rewatch Thurman vs Porter. Porter is a super sayned version of Madianna plus he is a better boxer. Now, of Thurman can handle Porter and beat him 8-4, how in the hell is Madianna going to do it?

Lol Maidana is a wayyyyy better boxer than porter

Lol Maidana is a wayyyyy better boxer than porter

How so?

Maidana definitely showed some subtle improvements under Garcia, but it's greatly exaggerated just how much. Porter might not be as heavy-handed as Maidana, but he's better in literally every other department. Better jab, very quick hands and feet, more durable, better defence and just all-round more skilled.

Wtf, Maidana jab and defense are better than porters

No just no. Porter has the better jab, defense, plus he is the bigger man and able to bully guys much more better than Madianna. Show me video evidence of Madianna being better than Porter

Based on what? Porter has out-jabbed everybody he's fought except Brook. I think people overlook Porter's boxing ability because of how wild he can get at close range. He was a quality amateur with wins over guys like Andrade, Jacobs, Usyk etc and as a pro he's only lost to the best in close fights.

Check the opponent's connect % against both guys bro, Porter is a lot harder to hit.

I think people are overestimating Maidana's ability under Garcia. Shawn Porter has better legs, and is faster, not only that, significantly stronger, when he took Thurman's manhood away by man handling him mat every department in the clinch.

He did better than expected against Floyd, and it was unexpectedly so, but then Maidana wasn't tested by anyone after that. It was more of a style thing against Floyd than it is Maidana's actual ability. Floyd relied on being slow paced, which Maidana capitalized from it and use it to rough Floyd out, Floyd doesn't do much when he gets smothered but Porter does, and Bradley also.
