    Well let's see what Bradley does. I still think he has some things to tweak but, so far, I'm very impressed. I've been touting him ever since he battered Garnica but there are flaws a vet like Hatton could exploit. Still, I give him a great chance at the upset.

      The people who vote for Bradley to win this fight are the people who don't like Hatton.

      Hatton would be too much for Bradley to handle at this stage of Bradley's career.
      nah, I wouldn't say it's a joke but bradley does have the ability to win.

        i think dlh/hatton is a guaranteed loss for hatton. pac is a guaranteed win for hatton. i'm ok w/ bradly/holt/toress battling it out, but right now bradley is hatton #1 contender.

            Ricky Hatton vs Junior Witter or Witter vs Bradley is what I want to see. Nobody gives Witter any credit. Bradley outpointed Witter so that makes Witter a bum. Hatton has been ducking Witter for years.

              Hatton would rip Witter a new one.

                Maybe. We have no idea whether he is overrated, or not. But the fact is he has fought nobody (FFS, Junior Witter?), so we just don't know. The odds are, just as with any up-and-coming fighter, 'champion' or not, he will fall at the final hurdle when he comes up against an elite fighter which, however much the haters may deny it, Hatton certainly is. Just like Lacy did. Just like Pavlik did. Just like Malignaggi did. And just like Chad Dawson may well do if Calzaghe gives him the chance... although his wins over an aging Tarver and Johnson give him a little more credibility.

                Sure, some may think Bradley will beat Hatton.. such amateur punditry is what boards like this are about. But it's hot air and wishful thinking, no more. I'm amazed anybody has the balls to play the "clash of styles" card after last night.. when the difference in class is that great (and remember, most of those now dredging up Bradley as the next great hope were claiming Paulie was favorite) 'style' doesn't matter a damn.

                Bradley is several fights away from even having a decent claim to be in the same ring as Hatton, by which time Hatton probably will have retired. If Bradley proves himself as a real top p4p contender good luck to him, but he'll have to do it against somebody else. Ricky just has no reason to fight him, his profile doesn't seem huge in the US and it's non-existent in the UK. Hatton will get no credit for beating him. DLH, though... different world completely both in kudos and cash.
                you can ****ride in fewer sentences! contradicting what all boxing heads believe is the evidence. because you are a fan that doesnt make your opinion fact. bareback or saddle! GTFOH!!!!!!!!!!!!

                  Bradley should give Witter a rematch, Witter did'nt train properly for that fight because he found out his father had cancer during training.
