Ortiz at this point isn't ready for Bradley...i'd say test him and put him in there with Malignaggi to see how he handles someone who can box...
Bradley is not as good as Paulie guy, Holt could of easily dispose of Bradley by just using his damm jab hell he about ko Bradley.
this fight is a moot point. bradley, like holt and torres are bedsitters for a skilled fighter who can legitamitely claim their throne. none of these guys are skilled enough to hold the crown.
Good post. Bradley is quite a bit more proven at this stage. Yeah, he got matted by Kendall Holt - Victor Ortiz got matted by Darion ****in Esalas... Not that Esalas can't crack, he can, he's just not in the same league as Rated R, and Rated R is what it took to get to Bradley. Esalas is what it took to get to Ortiz, and that's not alot. I'm a bigger fan of Ortiz, but I'm a much bigger fan of boxing than I am fan of Victor Ortiz. Anything could happen, but some advantages are bigger than others.
Probably not under the power of Ortiz on a clean shot, no. ^ Hopefully that's not a general statement you're making, however. The punch that Holt dropped Bradley with early would have sent alot of other guys to the morgue. It was ****ing RIDICULOUS, and Bradley shook it off clean. The second KD, late, was also pretty goddamn heavy from a very heavy hitter and well aided by accumulate wear and damage. I've seen Ortiz kiss the mat on a counter right alot less impressive than the counter right hand Bradley hit Cherry with, so we don't know who might be swimming around on that canvas. There's alot more to the story.
ortiz by t/ko. good fight though. the only way bradley wins this one is if he's got one hell of a chin/ortiz just isn't experienced enough yet to take on a fighter of bradley's caliber.
I thought Khan was fighting Kotelnik.....neways I'd go for Bradley by UD i think he's smart enough to avoid getting caught too much by Ortiz.
