This is lining up to be a great fight.

maybe...

no advantage for Holt in experience, height and reach maybe. I'd go for up and coming Tim who's on a clean streak. Speed will catch Kendall's chin before the 8th.

Can't wait for this fight. I expect Bradley to pull it out, but I would say Holt definitely has an edge in experience.

Holt with a cautious win

When Kendall Holt comes to the ring in the proper mindframe (Cautious fear) he changes his fighting style to that of a pure boxer. Against Arnaoutis and Hopkins he knew he could lose if he wasn't careful. His high level of respect for his opponents forced him to keep his distance and rely on the jab using his speed, punch output and reach to walk away with safe wins. If he faces Bradley with the same level of respect then it is hard to see him losing. Bradley doesn't throw enough punches to out pace Holt's jab. Unless Holt gives this away or simply gets caught with an overhand right, I see Holt winning a trepidatious unanimous decision.
