Comments Thread For: Bradley vs Maidana is a Done Deal For June 19

[-Antonio-]

Holt put him on his ass twice, and Maidana is a big puncher who won't give up. I expect Bradley to hit the canvas at least once.

Holt caught him with a perfect hook that he didn't see, and he got up fine. Maidana is going to get worked.

it panned out well for Hopkins. this the way the game go sometimes. remember back when Floyd and Corrales was at this similar point in ther careers. It has happened before and i think it should happen again.

It's too crowded for young prospects in the 140 lbs. division it's time to separate the potential great from the not so great. May the best come out on top. The great don't just fight the gate keepers they also take out the prospects if the opportunity arises early in their career. Floyd did it and many other top guys have done it.

does anyone know if this fight is still going to be in palm springs?

I was thinking about that but those guys were fighting for an exclusive contract with HBO - which the winner would get.

contract ain't nothing but $$$. They still fighting for $$$, just like now. the best man gets the best check, but at the end of the day, they both will get nice check in the rematch.

why do u think JMM and pacquiao did so much better the 2nd time than the 1st. They played the replay of that 1st fight all week prior to their 2nd fight. The same could be done for this and as fight fans...u know we love rematches of close fights.

Yeah...that and the fact that Pacquiao had become a bigger star. But your premise is right and I think they will fight soon. I expect Bradley to make short work of Maidana.

Nice great fightbradley can box and fight on the inside but i think he will just box cuz Bradley has been dropped by boxers who have a big punch but Maidana will be the biggest puncher he will have faced so far its either a Bradley ud or a Chino late stoppage.War Maidana

I think u need to go back and re-read what was said. The guy I was talking to, made it seem like bradley faced some murderous row of fighters. i don't think he was. And i'm not trying to revise anything in history. I'm talking about right now in the present day. U said it yourself "maidana is the best fight available besides Alexander." Fight alexander, not some Slugger with a puncher's chance!

He hasn't faced murderers row, but he has faced very solid opp. He went to England to fight Witter, unified with Holt, beat the **** out of Campbell, and took on a tough mandatory in Peterson.

Bradley was even signed to fight Khan until Khan left Warren and the contract was broken.

Nobody was picking Urango to beat Alexander he had his showcase fight, it's Bradley's turn kid has more than earned it.

that is all fine and dandy, but Floyd went after the top guy in the division and if he couldn't get that then he fought the next guy down. He whooped on prospects cause he had too. Bradley and Alexander don't need prospects to whoop on. They got each other! but it looks like Bradley don't quite see it that way

I wouldn't do a rematch if I was the winner of this fight there's too many other potential big fights to go for to waste your time fighting a risky opponent you already beat. unless there's nothing else out there.
