Better fight: Mayweather vs Alvarez or Pacquiao vs Bradley?

Pac-Bradley. It isnt a predictable fight. I think it's a great matchup

 

Pacquiao vs. Bradley
Bradley is my #8 P4P, The Ring #9. So, in that sense, the fight is by no means bad. Hatton, similarly was Ring P4P #8 when Pacquiao beat him. For the standards of Pacquiao and other elite P4P kings, it has some question marks which one could complain about. Bradley is a junior welter, and looked questionable despite cruising in his one fight at 147 vs. Abregu. Bradley has received much criticism over the past year or two and even had many demoting his top rating at 140 after Khan beat Zab. However, he is P4P tops so it will go a ways in potentially disproving the accusation that Pac can't handle boxers or African Americans. I honestly say it's my #4 behind Mayweather, JMM IV, and Cotto @ 154 in terms of realistic options.

Mayweather vs Alvarez
Alvarez is the #2 at 154. He was the semi-consensus Prospect of the Year from 2010. He is among one of the most popular active fighters. So, there are obvious things which come to mind. Business-wise on Cinco de Mayo? Check. Is he capable of launching himself into stardom and have the power/weight advantage to pull it off? Yes. He also, as Ortiz did, represents response to the once popular theory of significantly younger, heavier, and stronger guys being able to easily beat Mayweather. The weight and size advantage will be there, even if at a 150 catch weight (which would take a sliver of luster off of it). The argument that Alvarez is undeserving based on resume and immaturity in the ring is also a valid one. Mentally, one would think he has not seen enough to prepare him or give him the stage.

 

Pacquiao-Bradley, GBP should really leave this Alvarez fight alone its no reason to have him fight Mayweather this soon.

 

Pac vs Bradley is a better fight. Undefeated champion. Young and hungry lion. Bradley has a better resume than Alvarez (Paper champ) though.

 

How on earth can anyone make a case for a predictable fight over something more competitive???

Both are atleast OK but Pac Bradley is better - that's if Cotto doesn't come running back to Arum

 

Mayweather will embarrass Canelo. He'll Baldomir him.

 

Mayweather is pretty much a mismatch for anyone outside of Sergio Martinez at 160. Unless Mayweather is finally slowing down, Alvarez would get his ass whooped. Bradley vs. Pacquiao has potential do be very interesting, pending no under the table deals from Arum. Pacquiao struggles against fighters with a decent defense, but can bradley make him pay for his mistakes? and while bradley is talented defensively, he has and can be hit. he is a sloppy fighter with a head that can be a southpaw's nightmare. I would rather see pacquio vs bradley. Mayweather either fights pacquiao or Martinez.

 

Man, this prediction sounds so familiar. This guy and other *******s have never seen Bradley fight. That's I'd Be SHOCKED...if this fight gets made.

 

that's pretty much based on 'best guess', since he hasn't really faced ANYONE at 154. Has he even faced a top 5 contender? :huh

Alfonso Gomez may be his best win there you know.

 

Alvarez doesn't impress me at all. He's good but not even close to great.

 

Pacquiao vs Bradley is better......

I still consider Alvarez a prospect......Bradley is a bit more mature as a fighter, in the high level.....

 

curious about the weights

 

kinda like margo when he got that shot at the vacant tile against someone who never fought at that weight before

 

I think people will be shocked by pac vs bradley. You will see that pac has been matched smart over the years. This fight like the jmm is a mis-judged fight. Bradley will cause pac a lot of problems. Pac will be in for a long night. Pac sd 12

I don't like the alveraz fight. I don't think he is ready. But I also didn't think that ward and dirrell were ready for the super-six. Mayweather is a different animal then those guys. Floyd ud 12

 

Pac Vs. Bradley...........
