    I don't have a problem if it's not a welterweight, if that non welterweight poses a legitimate threat.
    Speed? Just because he's black he's fast? He has above average hand speed at best and is nowhere near the same hand speed as a Floyd or Pac.


    Closest fighter to Pac and Floyds hand speed is Berto and maybe Sugar Shane. Please I beg you to be a little bit more realistic because this is still not an acceptable match up.

      What disgust most people is to see Floyd take on another non welterweight. I'm 99.9% sure that most fightfans would much rather see Floyd vs Cintron rather than Floyd vs Bradley.

        Oh and Cintron is a garbage fight too but at least he's a actual welter -jr middle but I still think that even this fight is crap.

          Since when has Marquez been known to throw alot? He's a damn counter puncher. Bradley can counter and lead.

            Marquez doesn't even come close to throwing half the punches that Bradley does, especially above 135lbs. Marquez is a counterpuncher, not a pressure volume puncher with the speed of Bradley.

            And I have at least thoroughly explained my reasoning as to why he poses a threat, opposed to all these so called people that haven't.

              I'm glad we can agree there

                And yet this fight will never happen in a million years. Quote me when it gets signed.

                  Who mentioned color, besides you? Anyone who has ever watched bradley doesn't have to wonder if he's fast or not... he is.

                  Berto has fast hands but he fights flat footed like Zab. Bradley not only uses his hand speed but he has fast footwork, that he uses to work angles on his opponents exceptionally well.

                    Easiest fight to make would be with the Berto-Sugar winner. Especially if Mosley wins! The best thing to do is to move the fight date to april or may and Floyd actually challanges himself.

                      Size isn't everything. I'm simply talking about Bradley having the correct tools. Bradley has been in there with

                      Lamont Peterson 5'9 74 reach

                      Kandall Holt 5'9 74 reach


                      and Mayweather is 5'7/8 72 reach

                      That doesn't indicate overall size but that's something interesting to look at.
