    His disputed decision at least gave him some bargaining power and some options. With JMM annhilating Pac, Bradley almost becomes irrelevant again

    Ricky Hatton MBE @HitmanHatton 22h In Hong Kong, just watched the pacman v Marquez fight.What a punch. Walked right onto it. Pacman was winning I thought. Still in shock.

    It has probably put Pacquiao v Bradley II on the backburner.

    Not to mention Pacquiao v Mayweather - which I've thought all along would never happen anyway.

    Bradley is actually a great comeback fight for Pac. Pac can win that fight and go straight into the 5th Marquez fight and with a belt to offer.

    He's versatile and tough enough, I'd love to see it. Can't help but see Marquez taking advantage when Bradley gets wild though so I'd lean towards a Marquez UD.

    I think Marquez would win, but it's not a clear cut contest by any means.

    The two ways to beat Marquez is to cut down his time to think and time you... basically what Pacquiao was doing for the majority of the time on Saturday, or simply box on the retreat using your jab and use your feet.

    Marquez is still shite at using his feet to close the distance, but because he controls the range so well once the opponent is there to be hit it makes it a difficult task to accomplish.

    Of course someone like Floyd could do it, being faster all round and having a longer reach.

    If Bradley stood and fought with Marquez it'd be a mistake, even though he might be able to have some success.

    Bradley vs Marquez would be a cracking fight.

    I'd slightly favour Marquez

    Agree that Marquez would have the slight edge, Bradley is a machine when he gets going, he can punch all night long and has a good chin, very interesting fight.
