Could Hatton even beat Tim Bradley?

:roll:

 

IDK about that. His power isn't on Hatton's level

 

oh yea...ud

 

I think Bradley is the class of 140. I know Im in the minority, but he is strong as a bull, very skilled, fast and his footwork and timing are WONDERFUL.

Id slightly favor him on his movement and timing...but I wouldnt feel fully confident in doing so over Hatton.

 

After Manny Pac, I think the winner between Holt and Bradley should be next for a shot @ 140. Doubtful that will happen, since neither will satisfy any purse requirements.

But there's no guarantee Bradley wins. The more he can get Holt into a brawl, the better his chances are. But since this is Bradley vs. Hatton, I'll take then up later.

At this point, I would give Hatton a 60-40 edge. Bradley isn't tall, so he'll fight into Hatton's strength, up close, allowing Hatton to work the body and smother the less experienced Bradley. But Bradley is a live dog.

 

Bradley is dangerous to anyone at 140 though.

 

Bradley is still very unproven. He didn't easily beat, a poor, Junior Witter and the only other name on his resume is Edner Cherry, a journeyman.

 

I see it exactly opposite...Bradley 60-40. I think his movement and timing are amazing. Plus, because of that he is a fantastic counterpuncher...that KD he scored on Cherry with a counter right hand is a thing of beauty.

Incidentally, the Cherry fight is on Showtime right now.

 

Very nice and good points. Hatton will be there to be hit. Hmm. :think

 

I like Bradley and think he's got the goods to make it rough on anybody @ 140, but I dunno' if he could take Hatton. I'm 50/50 on this one.

 

I swear I didnt plan it that way....

 

Bradley's the one guy who i would pick to beat Hatton at 140. He's got the slickness that Hatton has trouble with. He can fight off the back foot and counter. He'll catch Hatton coming in time and time again. But there's also the element of Hatton supposedly improving since his Luzcano fight so who knows. :bbb But if this fight happened, i would probably put a little money on Bradley via UD.
