i'd like to see malinaggi versus bradley

[larry x]

i think that would be a great fight if the paulie that showed up last saturday showed up.....

Bradley would beat him up. I don't know how people came up with the adjective "slick" to describe Paulie...Paulie gets hit.

To me, Bradley has literally every advantage, speed, power, chin, and boxing skills.

it'd be a close UD IMO.

bradley doesnt have much power either..and paulie does get hit but is tough..2 tough fighter with not much power=a good fight

I hear you there. I just think Bradley's combinations and workrate would just overwhelm Paulie. I think it'd be a pretty wide UD.

Good fight. I like Bradley to win it tho. He's stronger than Diaz and a better boxer. Juan didn't look too good above 135.

i think people underated bradely power. sure it's not Knockout power...but i think he'll stun/KD someone in a fight. he did that aginist edner cherry and junior witter and went on to win the fight. now if it was vs someone with a very good chin he won't knock them down but he'll probaly stun them. it's not like he's feather fisted.

Let's not get carried away about the advantages.

Paulie's chin is clearly better than Bradley's. It doesn't mattter because neither one of these guys hits hard enough to KO the other.

Boxing Skills - PM

Power - TB (but he does not have enough to KO PM so it doesn't really matter)

Chin - PM

Speed - Pic'Em

I think Paulie actually wins this fight on fair score cards. This fight will never happen though IMO. I read between the lines of the press release yesterday that Bradley signed with manager Cameron Dunkin. Ask yourself a question, why does Bradley need a manager at this stage of his career? I believe it is to assist in getting away from Gary Shaw and Showtime and Cameron can deliver him to Top Rank and HBO. Bigger money, bigger fights. I think Arum's plan is to match Bradley/Peterson for the world title and have both sides of the fight. We'll see.

How does Paulie have better boxing skills? He jabs and occasionally throws a right hand, while Bradley creates angles, uses his jab, and explodes with combinations. Bradley also has faster hand speed. Paulie's shown a good chin, but he shot Holt hit Bradley with looked like it nearly took his head off, and he weathered that pretty easily. Bradley also has a higher workrate and better stamina.

Bradley is the future at 140...believe that.

Paulie is a slick fighter, but Bradley's a bad match-up for him.
