Prime Tim Bradley Vs prime cotto at light Welter

Bradley outboxes him.

 

LMAO!

Cotto was a level above Bradley. Timmy would hang tough and show heart, but he'd be outclassed.

 

cotto was a monster at 140, he was like ggg of 140 at one point.

 

No he wasn't.

 

Cotto gases like always against Tim's high work rate.

 

It's not a bad matchup, and Bradley was certainly better at 140 than he was at 147.

But Cotto was always a better fighter than Bradley.

 

Cotto was a better boxer and had better power than Bradley. It would have been a good fight but i would have favored Cotto.

 

All valid points, however, it does come down to Bradley not having enough power to deter Cotto. And although Bradley was flashier, Cotto was actually the more skilled technician of the two.

I don't think Cotto stops Bradley, but he wins a pretty clear decision.

 

Bradley went life and death with provodnikov. Cotto outboxes him or beats him up, just better overall. At that weight, Cotto really beat up his opponents, he was the real deal up until he lost to bricked margo.

 

Bradley was an excellent boxer before he decided to go all machismo to please the fans.

 

Bradley was very good, its just cotto was better imo.

 

Fair enough. Cotto gets a lot of credit that I'll never understand personally.
