        Nate Campbell deserves a ton of props. Just look at the last couple of years. He was to take on undefeated and big favorite in Juan Diaz. Then lines up another very risky fight in Joan Guzman. Then takes on another unbelievably risky fight in Ali Funeka. Now going up to fight another undefeated and risky fight in Bradley. And wheres the payoff?? None of these guys are big names, guys that no one really wants to fight.

        He's shown the willingness to fight whoever, so whatever you're opinions about the man you must respect that. He's a smaller version of Glenn Johnson, but better. Or maybe a better comparison is Bernard Hopkins, someone who never takes tune up fight and only fights the best.

              Bradley's D is really tight he keeps both hands up all day. That's why Witter couldn't pin point him. Only time Bradley gets hit is when he lunges in like an idiot, which I've only seen him do againts Holt. You can't blame him much for that cause it's probably the only way to get to holt (if you are not Torres-1 punch ko power adds a lot of pressure) when he backs up all day. Bradley isn't the type to sit back and wait for anyone. Other than that fight he has always been smart. I don't think Campbell hits any harder than a flush shot from Holt and Bradley already absorbed one of those. I think Bradley wins this with his D and countering. I'll be there live hopefully to see a Bradley win but hope it's as exciting as I am expecting.

                Campell has got this. He has more power and he doesn't make the defensive mistakes that Bradley makes. I hope the winner fights JMM regardless if he is victorious against Floyd or not. It would give JMM a chance at a fourth divisional title, and in the process, the fight would sell really well.
                i was thinking about this the other day - JMM takes on the winner of bradley/campbell and then he suddenly becomes a major player in the 140 department. imo pacman will lose at 145 and when he comes back down in weight JMM will be waiting.

                but enough about pacman and JMM.

                me thinks that bradley has this. i wouldn't say he stops nate but i can see him outowrking the 37year old and using his handspeed to cruise to the UD. imo it will be 116-112, campbell is a good fighter with a good right hand and good timing.

                i see a similar scenario as we saw in calzaghe/hopkins, one fighter intiates the attack, lands more punches and finishes the attack but the other fighter lands the cleaner blows (right hand in particular) punctuating the exchanges.
