    after the bradley-guzman had been called off..shaw hinted that bradley would defend his title against the galaxy warrior nate campbell

    who wins this fight. it would be an acid test if nate campbell to tame bradley much like he did to juan diaz. Would campbell's power greatly diminished as he mov up in weight?

    I like bradley a lot. Big right hand, determined as ****, pretty good chin, but when we saw him step up in class against holt, his defensive flaws were there for all the world to see. The only reason Holt lost that fight with Bradley is because he decided to take the fight off after the first two rounds. Holt had Bradley down with a HUGE left hook in the first and also knocked him down in the final round I believe. Bradley won that fight on workrate alone, not class. If they guy who destroyed Diaz showed up on the ring with Bradley, desert storm would be in a lot of trouble, regardless of weight class.

    I think Pacquiao should fight Bradley and he might pick up a couple of straps in the process, that is if he did win though but Campbell will take care of business as long as he dont die down like he did in the middle of the Funeka fight but I know he was kind of drained from trying so hard to make that weight.

    This is an awesome matchup. I really can't decide. If I were forced to pick I would go with Bradley as I'm unsure how well Campbell fills out at 140

    This is a great matchup and would be a real test for Campbell at 140. Im not extremely impressed by Bradley and Nate's heart and desire to win is that of a champion....im going Campbell by UD

    It'll be an interesting contrast to Campbell's last fight against Funeka, who despite being at 135 is much taller than the relatively short Bradley.

    I've got Bradley 116-112 or so.

    Good idea I was thinking about this fight last week and was going to make a thread. I hope they can make this one happen.

    Bradley. Has the workrate to give Campbell problems and the strength to keep Campbell from roughing him up.

    Campbell, as long as he doesn't suddenly get old. He's an entirely different class of fighter.
