    hmm says. . . I'm leaning towards Bradley. I'm impressed with Valero's sparring but it's just sparring. In fight night, he doesn't show that much head movement like he does in sparring so perhaps TB can expose that.

    Just common sense . . . Bradley is a legitimate 140 pounder . . . he even fought above 140.

    Bradley:

    Junior witter
    Kendal Holt
    Edner Cherry
    Nate Campbell

    Valero:

    Homno (at 130)
    Zavaleta (at 130)
    Shimada (at 130)
    Pitalua (at 135)

    I'll pick bradley by decission and I won't be suprised if Valero gets KTFOed.

    I like Valero, but Bradley would whoop that ass like no other. LOL @ these people saying Valero might KO Bradley.

    That's their opinion so be it . . . but logically I don't think there's a chance for that to happen.

    You see Holt has a very good power and a lot faster and taller than Valero . . . if Holt failed to finish off Bradley despite the 2 KD's I don't see Valero being more successful. Valero is too slow compared to Holt.

    Unproven? He has already ko'd 2 world champions....the dude is the real deal....look at other guys he' s ko'd in 1. Not world champs, but have gone distance with top fighters. Cant see him losing at 135 to anyone!

    its hard to pick.

    valero is unproven at 140 (if not unproven in general), and i dont know how his power will carry up (though im sure it will for the most part).

    bradley is already legit at that weight, and the champ.

    id have to give the edge to bradley, but i wouldnt be surprised if valero koed him.

    Well, at the moment I would pick Bradley without thinking twice. I'm assuming Valero would have to move up in weight, to Junior Welterweight, and Valero hasn't proved anything yet. While Bradley has proved himself. So, I would pick Bradley because of his experience, speed and skills.

    Why in the living **** is everyone on Bradley's dick? :huh:patsch:verysad:-(

    Are you ****ing kidding me?
    He beats Holt (a **** win honestly) and gets a gift TKO against Campbell and this man becomes the almighty keeper of 140lb division?!:bart:dead:-(

    This is some bull****. Im not saying he WOULDNT win, but his chin is ready to be broken. Valero is more than capable of breaking that **** down. He doesnt need to keep his ass down either. After 3 KD's the ref kinda feels bad for a guy.

    It'll be a TKO. IMHO. But Valero is a bit reckless. Bradley doesnt have the firepower though to keep Valero's viciousness off of him. They both are pretty fast, fast hands, Bradley is more fluid in his footwork. Valero isnt slow...just flat footed. He doesnt bounce off his toes, but rather pounces.

    This fight would be a pretty good chess match. No way a beatdown. But I think Valero is hungrier in that killer sense and would win in war-like fashion after trading blistering bullet shots.
