    IMO the best defence a tall fighter can have is the Lewis,Wladimir's type defence not trying to roll and slip shots the way Dawson like to do

    Yep im a fan of Bradley aswelll how did you know besides the sig ?
    Dawson has great defence for his size. Doesn't get hit a lot at all.

      Just because he fights the way Dawson would if he didn't make mistakes IMO...

      He looked damn near perfect against Cherry last time out.

      well that was a good call then DWiens421

      Yeah Bradley needs to show he can take shot also, that is the problem with prospects they look tremendous and then you find out they cannot take it on the chin. I suppose with Bradley's tight defence though he might get away with if IF!! he has a less than stellar chin.


      That guy David Reid looked a brilliant prospect i thought, as did Vargas but neither of them had a great chin imo. Take Terry Norris,Junior Jones how good would they have been IF they had a better chin?

        I've never seen Reid or Norris.

        I will say it is something that Reid survived all 12 rounds... he got knocked down a million times by Trinidad.

        Junior Jones would have probably been undefeated had he had a good chin.

        Bradley's chin will be okay at 140 I think... that division is awful. Can anyone punch in that division? Urango, but... my god, that guy is not very good. Good luck landing a clean shot no skill Juan.

          Morales v Espadas 1
          Ibeabuchi v Tua
          Chavez v Kamua
          Nelson v C.Grove
          Quartey v DLH
          Benn v Malinga 1
          Eubank v Schommer
          DLH v Mosley 2
          Rahman v Toney
          are you kidding? Ike won that fight going away. I had it like 117-111. Tua did more damage, but he lost just about every round

            Hey DWiens421 i know you go on a certain Boxing forum that i use too ask Pugilist to hook you up he has some Norris dvds uploaded

            Norris was an excellent Boxer who was a gunslinger at heart, but he had a horrible chin and got KTFO a few time whilst getting too involved... he was ALWAYS exciting to watch though. Al Bernstien led the cheerleading for him at one point as the best p4p fighter in the sport or top 3 at least.

            You wont see a fighter who enjoys punishing people as much as Norris did

              I would, but... I'm already queued up...

              I have about 80 fights on my list to watch...

              After that, and I get through watching all the new fights that strike my attention, I'll have a clean slate and can start watching fighters like Norris.

                  are YOU!! joking


                  Ibeabuchi threw everthing he had at Tua for the first 5 rounds, after that it was all Tua ....and Tua staggered him.

                  Ibeabuchi threw more punches over the coarse of the fight, but majority of those were thrown in the early rounds that he won.

                  Merchant,Lampley,Lederman all had Tua winning

                    make sure you do

                    Have you seen a Morales v C.Hernandez link anywhere that is suposed to be a very good fight of Morales but i have not seen it anywhere yet.
