fighters that can beat Bradley for his 2 straps

Exactly. Cherry too.

 

I dont know where people get 'he cant punch that hard' from. I saw great ability on display from bradley. He figuired out midway through the fight that holt (a) did not like fighting when pressured and (b) did not like getting hit in the body. This guy could go far.

 

Did he put Cherry down aswell?

That's pretty impressive too.

The guy can bang when he needs to for sure.

 

Yeah, with the exact same overhand that dropped Witter. He can put some real stank on that punch.

 

Holt didn't magically stop punching. Bradley bombed his body from the early rounds. That right hand to the body is sickening and its actually a hard punch to throw from the orthodox stance cause you have to square up your shoulders and it leaves you open.

 

Yes,knocked him down clean on his ass in the 8th.

 

I would also vote Urango, who's all wrong for Bradley (and all wrong for Bailey). I think Hatton, Pac, Ortiz and Guzman all beat him though. Campbell's about an even money fight.

Edit: Didn't notice Marquez was on there. Depends on which Marquez shows up really then. I think defense-first Marquez gets bullied and beaten by Bradley. 135 seriously should be the end of the line for Marquez.

 

i think almost all of them could take his belts... he's good, but i just dont think he could hang with a lot of those names. there's an awful lot of talent in the light welterweight division.

 

I think he is overrated here in ESB. You are underrating him, he is not that bad of a champion. In a weaker division I could see him being the top dog. His lack of power is not a big issue since he has a good work rate and a good set of whiskers.

Personally I think he is a bit sloppy and don't really enjoy how he fights. He visibly hurt Holt with a body shot and you could see Holt gasp for air. I don't know what was going on in Holt's head though... the man could have easily won that contest. He was talking **** all fight but could/would not back it up. I am inclined to think it's mostly WOULD.. When he let his hands go he did great. His jab was great and it would stop Bradley in his tracks.... yet he stopped throwing it.


Anyways I pick most of those guys to beat him!

 

Some of these polls are annoying.. WHy make a poll when there are more than one fighter who would beat bradley.. Marquez, Pac, hatton, ortiz, valero, and even guzman has a good chance.

 

Love the way you say "not a hater thread" then proceed to do some grade A hating without pausign for breath!

What does it matter if you don't think he should have 2 belts? He beat 2 champs, he wasn't given them because he deseved them, he took them!

He might not be the biggest puncher ever but he put Witter and Cherry down and hurt Holt bad to the body in one round. KO power isn't the only quality to judge boxers by, he has a good chin it would seem and the conditioning to fight 12 full rounds.

To try answer your question though, think pac hatton may currently be too much for him, marquez might outbox him though we don't know how he would fare yet at 140. Torres might have a punchers chance but as I said, Tim looks to have a decent chin so if it goes the distance think he would outwork him.

 

iD FAVOR PAC HATTON AND MARQUEZ...THE OTHER GUYS WOULD BE A TOSS UP IMO!

 

Hatton and Pacquiao who seem to be atop of the division are my first choices because of their relentless style, speed, power, and athleticism.

then you have guys like Ortiz, Urango, Torres, and JMM ... who are just good fighters with either power or good boxing techniqe or **** a combo of the two.

Bradley showed good boxing skill, but he also showed a shaky chin and i'm sure if Holt can rock him and have him on ***** street, then a guy like Torres would take him out fast.

 

It's gonna take someone with great condition = to Bradley to try and beat him.
Forget about the what people are saying now "Weak Chin" ****!

Anyone on that list can beat eachother, But can they do it when it count's.
Bradley made a fan of me on Sat.

For the current 140lbs I think Bradley defo has good enough pop to hurt them...
As far as the 130's/135's coming up Bradley has K.O. power.

I'd say 50/50 vs. anyone on that list.

 

We've already seen that he and Holt isn't a 50/50 fight. He would wipe the floor with Paulie. Diaz and Torres would have less than a 50% chance. Pac and Marquez have a higher than 50% shot against Bradley. The rest of the guys are about 50/50 against Bradley.
