    Maybe he could have stopped Nate but he should have been able to beat a 37yr old moving up in weight if he is a top shelf fighter that is. I would pick Maidana to ko Bradley after losing many rounds on the cards and I would pick Holt to win a rematch.

      when bradley went down by that flushed shot, ithought the fight was over....but he got up like nothing happened and outboxed holt to a wide decsion....i give maidana a good punchers chance but he was beaten before by a not better boxer than bradley although it was controversial......hope maidana gets another title shot...

        Pacquiao is the man at 140 officially, Bradley is his number 1 contender clearly right now. Pacquiao would beat him though, Bradley needs to work on a few things before he's ready for that hight a level of opposition.

                Now, before any Pacquiao fanatics get in here, here's my disclaimer. I'm not saying that he'll kill Pac horribly, I'm just saying he would be competitive. I mentioned his name before and everyone acted like I should shoot myself for even thinking he belonged in the same sport as Pac...

                But I was thinking. Bradley typically presses the fight and has a high workrate. He's not a devastating puncher, but his body work accumulates. However, he broke his usual attack-mode and started to box a little bit against Campbell. He started to circle and use his jab effectively. And everyone's saying that Cotto has to be able to jab to keep Pac at bay. I could see a similar strategy for Bradley imo...
                Bradley would win this one no doubt.He's tough,fast and learnt his basics right,fantastic boxer

                  For a few rounds maybe but I think Pacquiao would beat him clearly right now.
