    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.
    Yea, it seemed like he was punching with more authority against Peterson. I said three years because I really do think Floyd and Pac are just that good.

    Timmy needs much more experience at 140 before he steps to either Pac or May. Is Timmy better right now than Miguel Cotto at 140?

      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.

      Peterson was a prospect.

      Wiiter won the WBC belt 1 fight before. Past his best? maybe, but not WELL past his best.

      You under rate Holt. Id love to see what your definition of average is. Holt would destory Maliginaggi, for example.

      Come on. we all know Nate took the easy way out of that fight. the fight prior he fought Funeka who is no joke and won.

      Peterson is a prospect. a very good one, at that

      you can do your little smilies if you want. your argument is piss poor. disagree if you want on whether you think he'd beat pac or mayweather, but at the very least he'd be competitive. You cant knock his recent resume, 4 world class fighters in a row. he's doing what mayweather and pac should have done - clear out the division

        Holt wouldn't beat Malignaggi. IMO

        Khan
        Hatton
        Alexander
        Malignaggi

        Are better fighter than anyone Bradley has faced so far.

          He's too inexperienced, but the man does have some serious skills and not a lot of weaknesses, he's a solid fighter and it will take someone special to beat him. Maybe could do with more punching power and gets a bit reckless with his defense at times.
