The second Pacquiao/Mayweather gets in the ring with Bradley and beats Bradley silly, all of you guys will say Pac/Mayweather was picking on a amateur.

Honestly at 140lbs Bradley is the truth excluding PAC and FMJ as they are both now fighting at 147lbs. Bradley shouldnot move up to 147lbs. Bradley vs PAC at 140 I would want to see that. COnsidering Holt floored Bradley two times I think PAC would KO him but it would be entertaining for as long as it lasted....Lefty
Bradley is still kind of sloppy sometmes. He makes up for it by shoving his big dome in fighters' faces. But when a guy like Floyd can trick you into jumping into his range so he can counter, you pay for it either way.
Witter, who Hatton dodged for years, Holt, who's a hellacious puncher, Nate Campbell, who was the lightweight king, and Lamont Peterson, who allegdely schooled Mayweather in sparring
These guys werent damaged goods ( Cotto, Hatton ) or not in thier natural weight class (de la hoya, Marquez) These guys where at the top of thier game and Bradley won comfortably
Now Cotto, out of both Pac and Mayweathers recent wins, is the best and most significant. But Margarito took his prime away, Bradley i say style wise give both problems. as for Peterson, Bradley was green too when he went to England and beat Witter
Witter was well past his best when he lost to Bradley
Holt is a little above average fighter
The Campbell fight was changed to a NC, Bradley won because of a butt + that was Campbells first fight at 140 and he looked **** in the fight prior to fighting Bradley.
Tim Bradley is still developing. He doesn't have the experience yet to deal with Pac or Mayweather. This thread is like 3 years premature.
I would like to see how Bradley fairs against Malinaggi. I think he beats PM, but it's a test he needs to take.
Maybe 16 months premature. 3 years is a bit much to me although I agree he has room to improve. Just by tightening up his punches. His jab and right are very solid, but his left hook can be sloppy, his combinations can be wide.
Reminds me a bit how Toney slowly tightened up his punches as he went to 168. That's what Bradley's missing imo, and it can be done with his work ethic I'm thinking. I remember hearing or reading how his camp thinks his style got molded into the amateur style of pitty pat punches and you can see him moving away from that, slowly.
