    Not a bad fight, it's the title that makes it bad.

    Cotto is 5'7", Bradley is 5'6", so you're right, not much size difference there. Bradley beating Marquez is irrelevant no matter where you rate him, Cotto is a different animal (not better or worse, just different).

    People rate Marquez more highly than Cotto in general, but beating Marquez doesn't magically mean that Bradley > Cotto in a head-to-head matchup. You have to have solid power and/or great defense otherwise Cotto will savage you. Bradley has no power and good but not great defense. He wouldn't be able to get Cotto's respect at all.

    I'd love to see Timbo get the W. We might then have a lineal chp with the stones to take on GGG.

    Yes, Timbo can outbox Cotto only if the ref puts on gloves and helps.

    Roach actually trained Provodnikov to fight Bradley as well.

    Bradley has never had a punch to keep anyone off him. So it won't be an issue against cotto. Bradley will out box him
    Power is not everything. How do people still doubt bradley. Bradley is world class. Ya can't find to many fighters with a CV as good a bradleys

    Bradley can't be knocked out. He's a great boxer. He can fight on the inside or at a distance. He could win this. I'd actually bet on him.

    LOL of course Bradley can get knocked out. He was on the verge of almost death against Ruslan, Cotto who is actually much more technical would badly hurt him at 160, Bradley carries little power at 140, let alone 160.

    Absolutely a BAD fight!

    A complete farce...Cotto needs to fight GGG or vacate the title!!!

    No Golden parachutes into retirement here...this is the brutal sport of boxing!!!

    He enjoyed the accolades and adulation in winning the belt so why not defend it against true Middleweight???

    completely ridicules !!! Pac has everyone thinking that fighters can move up two weight devision in a short period of time and be effective !! Horse SH!T!!
    If Bradley moves to 160 he gets dispatched badly !! Bradley walking around at 175 is fat!!
    Walking around weight is not the same as performance weight!
