      If I'm not mistaken, I think I heard on HBO that he fought as an amateur at 152 lbs. I think he'll come in well within the welterweight limit, but I think he's naturally bigger than Manny.

        I do. He has small proportions. That weight he's carrying is because he loves to lift weights

            i think he would run into trouble vs big welters like berto and ortiz

            even though i think he's better then both

                as long as he can compete as a welterweight then there's no problem. how many 140 lb'ers in boxing history who has moved up to welter? hundreds i believe so what makes bradley different? in fact, there have been a lot of fighters who came from weights lower than jr welter who moved up to welter to fight bigger guys.

                  His style makes him look smaller than he really is and it will work to his advantage in a few weeks. He crouches so low that I can see him coming up under Pac's jab and Pac will have no choice but to tie up. That's how close to the canvas Bradley can fight. Dude has a nasty bag of tricks, win or lose he is going to be around a long long time after this fight.
