    The thing is guys like Clottey, Judah, Quintana are all better than anyone Bradley has ever faced.

    There really isn't much more I can say other than time will tell as far as how good Bradley is as a fighter.

      I agree with time will tell,but I don't agree Holt,Peterson,and Abregu would all beat Judah imo,Quintana is not that good either and I can see Bradley beating him as well..Clottey is big and out all the names would be the hardest test for Bradley based on styles..But you are right time will tell,and you will find out a lil more tonight..

        Bradley lacks two thing that he needs to beat cotto work rate and power. He just doesnt throw enought punches the two guys that beat cotto threw 1,000 punches a fight. Bradley doesnt set down on his punches he wont be able to hurt Cotto. Ask yourself this the last guy that Bradley fought (Luis Carlos Abregu) If that was Cotto that night in the ring with Luies. Cotto would K.O. in 6 rounds. You guys talk about timeing Tim is not a heavey hand counter puncher his time wont matter. Like I said he needs a high work rate and power to beat cotto. Speed and timeing wont matter you need to make cotto fight backwards to beat him.

            Wow..

            I can't even make a prediction..if Cotto can focus on Bradley's body, he can take his legs away and eventually possibly stop him, but if Bradley is on the move and picking his shots wisely, I could see it being a long night for Cotto and possibly losing a very close decision..

            I'm basing this on the fact that we haven't seen Cotto at 147 in over a year and a half and based on the styles both fighters have.

                  I just dont see it even being overly competitive Cotto would beat his ass down simple as that. And i like Tim! He is a 140 fighter for a start, Cotto is much much thicker and stronger than him, Has the experiance, is actually taller than him too and is by FAR the harder Puncher. I cant see Bradley really hurting Miguel and on top of all that Cotto has the better skills too. He's just a better fighter

                    Because Hatton would've got his ass kicked by Bradley and possibly KOd.

                      timmah's chin ain't good enough...but if timmah can pour on the pressure nonstop from round 1-12 he can outwork cotto.
