He's incredibly composed for a young fighter, always in incredible shape.

Lamont wins this one and brings home the belt. He is a much better counter puncher and his defense is much more tight. Lamont can match Bradley's work rate punch for punch and Lamont is more accurate, look for the double and triple left hooks to the body and head in this one. If the fight stays on the outside, Peterson has the reach advantage and the speed to use it, but I think this will be an inside fight, and that is where Lamont does his best work.

I would agree that Peterson is the better inside fighter, as he doesn't square himself up like Bradley. Bradley mainly throws a lot of hooks, but Peterson incorporated uppercuts to go along with his left hook.
The only thing I don't like about Peterson is that a lot of times he has the really high guard and can't counterpunch as effectively as he is able. I think he also has a tendency to go into an Abraham like shell. If he does that a lot, it'll give the judges and crowd the impression Bradley is winning the round becaude he'll just keep throwing. Also, Peterson has average power, and if the left hook that Holt landed on Bradley couldn't deter him from coming in, what can Peterson hit him with that will?
Despite losing, I thought, Holt actually had the right gameplan to beat Bradley, but just wasn't active enough and he threw his right hand in too much of a chopping motion when he tried to counter over Bradley's lazy jab.
