I think most people will pick Patterson here. Fair enough, but let's hear about why. Also, for anyone contemplaing picking the KO, we're talking about the guy from the Louis fight here. What do you think?
Braddock might drop Patterson somewhere, but he doesn't finish him and Floyd is just too darn fast and busy for him and goes on to either win a decision or late stoppage.
While I am with those who pick Patterson I don't think a Braddock win is out of the question either by decision or KO.
Ill take Floyd by dec though Braddock could dig a bit with his right ,and might floor Patterson ,lesser fighters did.
I think Patterson is too nimble and quick for Braddock, and he also has pretty good power so I would not rule out Patterson ending matters. I haven't seen much of Braddock, but I think Floyd's good enough to beat him. If Braddock was a big hitter I may have changed my opinion.
That's exactly right. Braddock doesn't have sufficient power to take out Patterson, who even with his average chin had the ability to compenstate with his great defensive ability (except against huge punchers) Patterson would outbox him comfortably. :good
Patterson wide decision he had great hand speed and would always be first to the punch he may even score a late KO but most likely a decision.
