I think we can all agree, Mayweather-Canelo > Pacquiao-Bradley.

    That just screams inexperience.
    Also don't bring up his strap either, look who he beat for it.

      Is Bradley going to match up with Pac like JMM did? I highly doubt it. Marquez had to fight 24 rounds of hell with Pac to have the experience he did coming into the 3rd fight.

      Hell, even if Bradley beats Pac, he still won't win a decision. I'm pretty sure of this.

      Canelo on the other hand has a puncher's chance against Mayweather. I highly doubt he'll land that punch, but he has a puncher's chance.

      Bradley doesn't even have a puncher's chance. The only fighter to truly hurt Pac at 147 was Marg. Based on Bradley's history, I don't see that one punch type power from Bradley, not even in combo like punching. Even then, he'll be open to counters from Pac, just ask Cotto and Hatton.

      Mayweather has fought once every year and a half for the last 5 years, which might allow Canelo to land that one lucky punch.

      Even though Bradley is the more proven/accomplished fighter, Canelo is more of a threat.

        I'm a Mayweather fan, but if he fights Canelo and Pac fights Bradley Pac vs Bradley is by far the better fight. And I'll just assume TS was kidding when saying Bradley struggled with Casamayor.

            Bradley looks awful against a bum at 147lb's & it's more of a legit fight then May-Canelo whom Floyd gives a few advantages away in terms of strength, power, age, size etc.

              i think they're both decent fights. they'll probably be more exciting than manny and mayweather fighting each other.
              they are better than some of the fights that were on the table


              you guys are discrediting canelo. he's a lot more than just a pretty face. i'm not saying that he's going to be the next big thing, or win his fight with floyd mayweather, but he is a very solid boxer


              he is a very large guy. that cant get lost here.
              he's a huge puncher, takes a great shot, and he's got decent range and speed.
              he would make bradley and pacquiao and even mayweather to a smaller degree look very small in the ring


              he's had 40 fights
              sure, they're not against world beaters, but he's had 40 of the things.
              he's boxed 250 rounds. he's been a pro since he was a boy.

              to say he's inexperienced is a stretch
              untested is more appropriate. he has not been tested by a prime fighter of his size with punching power and world class abilities.


              again, there are better fights, but i think you guys are getting a little hard on the promotors because of the lack of a pacquiao and mayweather fight.

                No ****ing way. Bradley is/was top dog at 140. Pacman is a tiny welterweight.

                Meanwhile Canelo has done absolutely nothing to be taken seriously about. Except being spoonfed half dead washed up, tiny fighters.

                  I have to disagree with that Bush.

                  Pac had Cotto backing up, basically stopped Marg, had Shane running all over the ring, KO'd Hatton.

                  Don't get me wrong, I don't agree with when Pac fought the above opponents, but if we're talking about size and strenghth, the above guys were some of the strongest (physically).

                  Pac was the predator in all those fights. Even though he's physically small, he's a big strong welterweight in my book. Especially without OST. I'm not sure what he'll be like with testing.

                    Bradley clearly avoided Khan. We aint talkin about 140. Bradley is fighting Pac at 147. His 2nd 147 fight

                    Floyd going up once again

                      Cotto can't take blows period & Mosley was more shot than a stop sign in hickville.

                      Bradley has the 1 thing that Manny has & more of it. Stamina, very good stamina. I'd say Bradley is physically very very strong too. You'll see Bradley give Pacman a wide ud & get robbed for his trouble, remember where you heard it 1st my guy.
