    I prefer Bradley but he comes in too recklessly with his head and has no inside game when he gets close to his opponents. At least he has heart and will fight to the end unlike Dawson. True king at 140 is MP though Bradley is safe at #2 with Khan being #3.

    Chad has more skill but he can;t execute the right style and use his advantages to dominate fighters, Timmy is a good fighter and has alot more heart and determination than chad so even though he might not be technically as good he might be the better fighter.

    Dawson is more skilled, but Timmy has heart and skill...thus, he is a better fighter than Chad.

    I think Dawson is far more skilled, but could do so much more, and in turn people view him in a more negative way. On the flip Bradley isn't as talented or skilled, but appears to get the most out of what he has, and so it's viewed more favorably. Dawson is the more skilled fighter and has more athletic gifts.

    Not really. He looked wild coming in and got clinched easily and most of his work is mid range. He should've mauled Alexander on the inside if his inside work was so good but as usual he came in too recklessly. He needs to pace himself as he has more to him than being a spurts fighter.

    What about against Holt? Or when he made Campbell quit?

    And it's very difficult for a short orthadox fighter to get inside against a tall, fast southpaw.

    Can you think of anybody better than him at doing it?

    Dawson by far in the skill department but skills don't always mean great fighters. What Timmy lacks in skill in comparison to Dawson he more than makes up for with intagibles like will, intensity, workrate and heart and because of this he will most likely leave a greater legacy than Dawson. I don't even think it's close skill wise though, Timmy isn't a technician by any means, throws looping shots, leaves himself wide open and isn't great defensively. If Dawson had Timmy's will and workrate he'd be p4p #1.

    :lol: Lora is always so hard to impress.

    How...:patsch:lol:...How can Pacquiao be the true 140 pound king, techks? It's been two years and four fights since he's been there and he even vacated the Ring title nearly a year ago. I've never heard anyone say Bradley has no inside game. :conf

    Bradley works way harder has more fighting spirit. Chad is more skilled but doesn't apply it.
