Right now, Hatton.

I want to see Bradley in a few more fights before picking him over Hatton.

yeah i was gonna say Bradley but i cant really pick him based on 1 perfromance ,if u go by Hatton v Lazcano & Bradley v Witter i think u would have to go for Bradley but like i said u cant really pick him based on 1 performance i was impressed with Bradley though

Hatton wins. His relentless attack would be too much for Bradley.

Yeah, not to take anything away from Bradley but Witter just didn't look like the same fighter.

Bradley looked good against a fighter, in Witter, who literally did not throw any punches.

There is zero chance of a fight with Hatton going anything like the same way, Hatton will be all over him like a rash, Bradley will not be able to sustain the same kind of consistent aggression throughout the fight. If he can outmuscle Hatton he might win, but he didn't look to have the body strength to do that to me.

Bradley looks a decent prospect but he didn't do anything other against Witter than suggest that maybe he has a chance against Ricky.

i think Bradley made Witter look so bad cause Bradely would not close range and give Witter counter punching opurtunitys ,i thought his technique was better aswell Witter has a tendency to throw wide punchers with his chin in the air where as Bradley was throwing straighter punchers down the middle ,he was also alot quicker than Witter IMO

another thing i noticed is Bradely never got impatient he did'nt start forcing the issue when there were lulls in the fight he stuck to his game plan did not reach with his punches kept his weight central when unloading & he threw a nice feints to land his right hand,im not trying to make Bradley sound like a World Beater its just i thought he boxed a very sensible disciplined fight

i always think u have to show patience with akward fighters & counter punchers ,i thought Joe Calzaghe started to have more success against Hopkins when he started being more patient not closing the range so fast and tyring to unload

abadger there is more to a Boxing match than relentless aggresion steaming foward & letting your hands go u seem to think if u have a high workrate and u are the aggressor u will win the fight ,no true

who's to say Bradley would try and stand with Hatton anyway or try and force him onto the backfoot ,Bradley would more than likely back up than meet Hatton head on

also if Bradley had been hitting Hatton instead of Lazcano i dont think Hatton would have remained upright TBH do u

I was impressed with his mental focus and patience in the fight as well, especially considering it was his first title fight in the champion's backyard.

And Bradley does seem like a good, solid fighter all around, not great in one specific area but good in all.

But Witter didn't seem to be into the fight mentally, that's why I want to see how Bradley does in his next couple of fights.
