    This sounds very interesting to me....I think torres is very underrated, and imo the heaviest hitter at 140.....and also I think overall a better fighter then Kendall "no heart" Holt, who just incredibly frustrating to watch.....

    Bradley still may be too quick on the inside for torres, but if holt put bradley down twice, then I think torres has a good chance in this fight.

    tough one to call.....Your thoughts?

    Torres is to strong for Bradley.
    Bradley caught Holt more than a few times clean. Compare that to when Torres touched him. If Holt can catch Bradley, Torres surely will but harder.

    The question is how much that head butt took from Torres.
    And if he is going to fight at 140 or 147. I hope it is at 140.

    I think Bradley beats Torres. Sure Holt hurt Bradley, but Holt is a much better counter puncher than Torres, so I don't really think Torres will get Bradley on the button. Bradley brings the fight to Torres, even manages to hurt him, but fails to stop him. Bradley UD :good

    Bradley wins just about every round vs Torres. Bradley is faster, more accurate, has better timing, a higher workrate, better footwork, moves better with both the head and upper body, is by far the better defender, has the better chin, is the better inside fighter (body puncher), is the smarter fighter, etc. All Torres has on him is power and maaaaybe strength (Holt said Bradley was the strongest opponent he has ever faced). I just cant think of one thing that would make me pick Torres other than a stoppage while down on the cards.

    This would be a stylistic MISMATCH!

    The logic choice is Bradley but you never know which Torres is going to show up nobody hits harder than this man at 140 I remember when he put Cotto to chicken dance his career has been a roller coast because his indiscipline and poor management.
