    Bradley would be a nightmare for Floyd. Bradley, foolishly, but nevertheless went toe to toe with a dangerous puncher and beat Ruslan at his own game. You don't need to outskill Floyd and Timmeh has the perfect style to offset Floyd's. Bradley will keep coming forward and throwing punches no matter what Floyd does. Floyd won't be able to match Timmeh's activity that's for sure. Unlike the Provodnikov fight, Timmeh won't have the box Floyd. Going toe to toe would be best. Timmeh might win or lose by one point, but he won't get stopped.

    Floyd would be able to finish timmy once he hurts him. Floyd could hurt him an when he does his strategy would be way different than providnokov. places his shots better, more accurate, faster, bigger puncher. Provodniko was flailing an got fatigued

    He wasn't even a welterweight and he was always more the of physically strong, grind you down type.

    Bradley's confidence just isn't the same. He even talks about himself differently since Pac whupped his ass. Floyd would **** with his head even worse.

    This is actually a very good assumption.

    The fact that so many people disagree with this poster, proves that most people on this site don't know **** about boxing.

    Bradley is at his best when he is putting pressure on his opponent, volumes of punches, and using a great deal of upper body movement.

    Ruslan was his kryptonite. He is a durable slugger with a decent skills. He is very heavy hands, and he can absorb one hell of a beating.

    Mayweather is a boxer, with a low work rate, and average power.

    Bradley would push Floyd against the ropes, use his strength and endurance to keep him offbalance and to take the sting off his punches, like Cotto did, and throw so many punches that Floyd won't know what to do with himself.

    Unlike Cotto, Bradley won't fade. Bradley is not as good a boxer as Cotto is, so he won't have the same type of presence Cotto had in the center of the ring, but at his best, pushing Floyd back, he gives Floyd all he can handle.

    Mayweather would outbox Bradley for 12 rounds. I don't really see Bradley winning more than three rounds.

    The only way Mayweather outboxes Bradley is if he has room. Considering Floyd is no Bernard Hopkins, and it's very easy to push him against the ropes, I doubt this possibility.

    Floyd would do most of his work on the ropes.

    Bradley would win rounds.
