I don't think he is far behind with body punching, he has an excellent jab and good feet which would get him space and points between clinches, he hits, he's better when hurt than Hatton is, most importantly he has has faster hands and he's got bags of heart. I think Hatton is past his best, I think he's ready to be taken, I think Bradley could be the man to do it. What do the rest of you think?
from the way it sounds yeah definitely, I think Hatton has the wind forever knocked out of his sails from the check hook, and he would get taken by Bradley.
Bradley and Cherry both came to fight tonight. Bradley's previous fight being so dull was entirely a function of Junior Witter's style. When he is in there with someone who isn't entirely awkward and reluctant to throw, he lets his hands go, shows good speed, and accurate punching. I like this guy quite a bit. The fact that he is such a devoted student of the game speaks volumes about his commitment and will help him both in the present and with his longevity.
I love Hatton man, but Bradley was absolutely entertaining tonight. That said, I need to see where Hatton is. Bradley has upward momentum.
I said he could beat Hatton after Witter. Not because he's anything special, but Hatton looked crap. I think a few could beat Hatton at the moment.
boxing isn't all about entertaining but people seem to jump on that bandwagon pretty fast because it is. saying thsat hatton is past his best because of the floyd loss or use boring as an excuse doesn't take away from the fact that he's an accomplished fighter and bradley still hasn't proved himself at that level.
alright so i'm completely biased. :yep i give bradley props. he's good. but is he good enuff brothers and sisters. :yep not quite. hatton on pts. :happy
