Actually, Bradley is the bigger man. He has fought in the 154 weight division in the past where as Manny can't even make that weight.
I really do believe Bradley overtrained himself for the Pac fight. I hardly ever see a guy just gain one pound between weigh in and fight night. Im pretty sure he put on more weight come fight time against Abregu at welterweight. He even weighed 148 on fight night against Alexander. Joel Diaz needs to make sure Bradley doesn't leave it all in the gym.

Sweet, I'll hit you up if anything solidifies regarding this fight. I'm not too confident if they make it at 154 somehow......I think that is just WAY too mush of a jump for Tim, he is a pretty small dude and Cotto is a strong guy at 154.
Cotto-Bradley isn't happening. I can see Alvarez-Cotto happening in a big fight though. Alvarez fought in March, June, September, and November last year. So him fighting in May, September, and December would not be a stretch at all.
I'll bet you that you are wrong if and when this fight happens. Remember what Pac did to Cotto and what he couldn't do to an injured Bradley.....that is the difference in skill level.....I'm a big Cotto fan too.

Considering bradley is with top rank, cotto would have to obligate himself to a number of fights to get that fight. Pacquiao would probably also be in the mix after bradley. I kinda hope this fight gets done, so that bradley gets brought down to earth a little bit. Imo, regardless of the weight (147 or 154, cotto beats bradley)
Alvarez would be a great fight aswell.

:lol1: so he want's to fight Bradley at what weight?
They are gonna suggest 154 but Tim is too smart for that. I know he said 154 but he would not agree to it nor would Arum. They will mae Cotto drop back to 147 or at a catchweight of 149-150........remember, Bradley weighed in at 144 or something for the Pac fight.
Bradley will outbox Cotto....too much movement.
If Bradley beats Cotto, he is top 4 P4P...possibly top 3!!!

Since Alvarez is fighting in September I doubt he'll make such a quick turnaround and fight Cotto in December and Bradley is apparently waiting on Pacquiao so we'll see what happens there. But for some reason, a Bradley-Cotto fight just wouldn't interest me too much, especially if it's at 154.
Wats the problem with canelo fighting lopez then?Only cotto can
do it not canelo?Like fans say theres other jmw to fight,Why dont
cotto fight them?
Because Cotto has fought the best in the world over the years. Can't say that about Canelo.
Ok then tell me what do you think of Bradley vs Cotto then and Canelo vs Lopez instead of your ad hominem attack. Please enlighten me. BOTH FIGHTS.
Lopez said he'd love to fight Canelo at 154 too. What's your take on that fight?
Seems silly to even compare the two fights, but whatever dude, I'll entertain you with my thoughts.
First, I don't have a huge problem with Canelo/Lopez only because it was the fourth option for Canelo and three other opponents fell out. Are there better fights, sure.
Second, Bradley beat Pacquiao, who sonned Cotto. Bradley was the #1JWW and beat the #1WW. Depending on how someone views that fight, at the very worst, Bradley is the #1-3 WW in the world. He's also rated in many people's P4P lists in the top 10. P4P means that you should be able to compete anywhere in and around your weightclass. Jr.MW fits that category. Its natural for Cotto to want to fight the guy who beat the guy who beat him. Something to prove.
Third, Lopez is leagues below Bradley and no matter how much I detest Bradley, I cannot deny his skill. Lopez was a fringe top 20 JWW, nevermind never sniffing a WW ranking. Its actually pretty sad to even compare the two fights. I mean I get your agenda, and that's cool, I can respect your maximum trollage because at least your consistent with it.
As for my views on the fights, Lopez has absolutely zero chance of winning. He's a natural 140 fringe Telefutura fighter going up against a Top 3 JrMW, in what will be hostile territory against odds, since GBP will stop at nothing to make sure Canelo gets a win. The results of Sept 15 was etched in stone as soon as Lopez was announced. He was getting beat up by Ortiz until Ortiz realized he was Ortiz and quit again.
As for Cotto/Bradley, I view it as 50/50. Bradley is fast, mobile and knows how to win. There's also the Bob Arum factor, but I won't get into that. I also fear that Cotto may have left the last of himself in the ring against Mayweather. Cotto has the edge in power, experience and overall boxing ability, but I don't think he's hungry anymore.
