    It's no coincidence that the only time he consistently boxed...was against the only fighter who can more than match him on the inside, Lamont Peterson. It's been so easy for Bradley to take it to fighters that he hasn't had to box much. Alexander couldn't handle the pressure so he decided to clinch excessively, Holt ran from it, Lamont Peterson was the only fighter who could feed off of Bradley's aggressive style. If Bradley has to, he'll box and he'll find plenty of success against Marquez if he opts to box.

      Pacquiao only fights one distance, Bradley can mix it up.

        Bradley is far better than people want to give him cred for.....plus he is young and hungry.

          Bradley is a much tougher fight for Marquez, id rather much see him take this fight then to go up against Pacroid again.

            JMM only looks good against Pacquiao.

                You didn't think he looked good against Katsidis, Diaz, and Casamayor?

                  Thing is that JMM likes to fight it out, he didnt with Pac in the 3rd fight but he will with Bradley

                  He wouldnt wait just to counter all night

                    He wouldn't have to Tim would be all over him giving him countering opportunities and Pac is much faster than Timmeth and Tim is no defensive master actually pretty easy to find. I see no reason why for those reasons JMM wouldn't find him with counters all night.

                      Bradley might be a little to strong for Marquez, the fact that Bradley doesn't have KO power would make this an interesting fight and no running from either guy means we will get out moneys worth.
