Cotto vs. Bradley 140 - Prime

I thought that as well, but then I remembered the Kendall Holt fight

 

Bradley has the best mustache in the game. Following in the footsteps of another talented shaved-head, mustache-having fighter. I think his first name was Marvelous or something.

 

Bradley's definitely tough and a good inside fighter, but he's too open when he throws for my liking against someone as good and accurate as Cotto; he not only hits hard, but is a good finisher as well; it wouldn't happen just once.

 

You guys have to be smoking some crack to think Bradley would win against prime 140 Cotto.

Now Cotto at 140 was a totally different animal than in higher weights, he had more power and was way more confident. Maliggnagi was faster and slicker than Bradley and Cotto had no problem destroying him. Cotto would punish Bradley to the body and get a KO. At 147 and in his current form, I could see Bradley giving more trouble.

 

Bradley has the perfect style to offset 140lbs Cotto, Bradley UD/SD Cotto

 

I don't know. Bradley is one of those type of guys where you have to just over power and blitz out of there. If you can't do that he's so damn determined he'll run your ass out the ring. N'dou, Mosely, Clottey, all had Cotto on rollerblades towards the end of their fights and Bradley is a much better pressure fighter than they are and cuts of the ring much better too.
Cotto is a very good fighter and might rank higher all time when it's all said and done but its a bad match up.

Timmy takes this.

 

Bradley wins on points.

 

Cotto gets him outta there

 

Really? Cotto would whoop his ass. Bradley is an average fighter.

 

cotto should take it. bradley doesn't have enough pop in his punches to discourage him. cotto at 140 was pretty big for his size and he also had that body attack which would wear bradley down. but bradley is similar to andre ward in that you don't see much special when watching him but when you get into the ring he's not the fighter he seems in video.
