    Timothy BRADLEY vs Lamont PETERSON

    Let's table the May-Pac talk for awhile. That fight is three months off.

    Bradley vs Peterson, y'all. A fight between an undefeated young champion and a hungry , undefeated young prospect. Both guys have good athletic ability, confidence, and handspeed.

    Bradley has shown that he is tough. That Holt left hook would have left most cats napping (right, Torres?). Tim has gone on the road and won. Fought guys and took their hearts. Regardless of whether you thought Nate Campbell really quit, Nate wasn't getting anything done, and he didn't look too excited to continue.

    Peterson came up hard. Homeless at times, sleeping in cars. From what we can tell, he is in A++ shape. He probably doesn't have the pop to keep Tim off him, so that makes this interesting. How will he handle TB getting in his chest and using that giant noggin?
    Lamont's best 'win" is a legendary sparring session with Floyd. If you believe the reports, Floyd put it on him the first day, and lamont got his get-back the second day.

    How do you see this fight going?

    Currently uploading Peterson fights on Youtube. Gonna watch them in a while. All I could say is, Peterson has a really good body attack, good speed, defense, 74 inch reach, good chin. Not much power.

      I've seen Bradley fight many many times... Peterson not so much so it's hard for me to make a real technical prediction... I'm picking Bradley off of what i've seen of the two... But I know it's gonna be one hell of a fight

            I think that Bradley has been tested and passed with flying colors his wins over Witter and Holt prove he can take a punch and get in there with the heavy hitters. he has trhe boxing skills and hand speed to give anyone problems and as you mentioned my man he can fight on the inside when need be. I think bradley is going to use his strenghts to beat Peterson pretty easily. Should be a good fight in the first 2-3 rounds but Bradley by UD would not surprise me at all...Lefty

              i see peterson outboxing him. Bradley throws to many meaningless punches for me and leaves himself open for too many countershots.

              the 1st class a boxer takes is counterpunching. i look for peterson to use his height and box bradley to his 1st L

                Here's something that I found very interesting. Rock Allen vs Lamont Peterson.

                Rock was the better amateur, has the more impressive physique/physical skills, and has the better training. And even had the more "pro ready" style.

                But somehow, Lamont Peterson is FAR ahead of Rock in the pros. WTH is going on with Rock's career?

                  Word? That's cool. And i see that you backed up your call by placing bets on that.

                    No problem man

                    In all seriousness though, Peterson's power is lacking but Peterson is a hard man, has a really tight guard. This will be very entertaining bout I predict. I see a toe to toe battle, Bradley has more pop then Peterson but not a hard puncher himself either.
