    FINITO - I pick Bradley to win. I can see Holt getting stumbled by something and I see Bradley finishing him off, I have seen Bradley also lose his concentration towards the end of a fight but I think he would have ironed out the kinks by the time next week comes.

    Bradley by Unanimous decision, workrate and speed and movement will win this fight.
    Holt will be trying to counter but Bradley's gloves will be connecting.

    Not only is Holt the more versatile fighter but he has the momentum on his side with his win over Hopkins..

    Bradley is in trouble.

    i like kendall too finto, but you might be sleeping on tim just a bit. as far as momentum goes, both are on high.

    tims the better technical fighter and isnt afraid to trade and or let his hands go either.

    Assuming Holt can avoid the very very sharp overhand right of Bradley, I think he takes this. Holt is a lot more classed and tested, specifically in wars. If the idea is for Bradley to try to outbox Holt, Holt can step up the activity and take rounds with his precise body work. If Bradley wants to make things a war, he's stepping into the lions den against someone whose been in quite a few wars. Bradley doesn't have the pop to go punch for punch with Holt and I can see him being outmuscled on the inside.

    That said Bradley does have a good chance. His overight right is vicious and Holt has shown a shaky chin and a propensity to get lazy with his hands. If he catches the right hand, We could see a KD leading to a TKO type situation.

    It's not that people dont like him it's just the fact that they see him for what he is..... an average fighter with a very shaky chin.

    you mean speed.. IMO tim definetly has the pop to put kendall on his ass.

    and your correct about his overhand right.

    either way we look at it, both are each others toughest comp yet.

    I think Holt has the better power. Basically what I meant is that if it turns into one o those punch for punch slugfests, Holt hits harder and would put Bradley down.

    That said Bradley has astute punch placement and I'd wager money that at least once in this fight he's going to place a punch Holt doesn't see coming and Holt will be in deep ****.

    Punch for punch is in favor of Kendall "I've been dropped by the likes of Jamie Rangel and Thomas Davis" Holt???

    I'd say Bradley takes a Holt punch alot better then Holt takes a Bradley punch.

    Bradley was hurt (not seriously obviously but still hurt) by Edner Cherry at a weight Cherry should never try to fight at. Holt has a worse chin but more power...Bradley has a sturdier (but still somewhat unproven chin) chin and less pop.

    I understand Holt's shitty chin is out there...but again, I don't think Desert Storm would win a slugfest with Holt.

    On top of that it's in Bradley's best interest to NOT trade with Holt. He's elusive enough to make Holt look stupid if he pops in, lands something steps out and moves. Bradley is a slippery ******* to hit and Holt CAN get frustrated.

    The gameplan should be to get Holt nice and pissed off in the early rounds with his superior footwork and slick counterpunching ability. After he does that all he has to do is wait for Holt to get overaggressive and the overhand right will cash the check.

    Ok and how is Holt power that good??? Besides David Diaz and Ricardo Torres who has he stopped??? And the Torres KO is very questionable.

    I know everybody likes to question the Torres KO but there was a tremendous hook that did most of the damage.

    As per who he's KO'd or stopped, well you mentioned Diaz and Torres. He knocked down Issac Hlastwayo 3 times in their fight. Issac was 25-0 at the time and considered the easy favorite. He also put Arnoutis down once in their fight.

    So while he didn't KO those guys, he certainly had enough pop to hurt and drop those guys easily.
