Does Tim Bradley win 1 round vs Mayweather

[check hook]

Bradley wouldn't win a single round. He doesn't have one single advantage in a Mayweather fight, at least PAc would edge Floyd in speed and power. I can't think of any single tangible or intangible advantage that Bradley has over Floyd.


ONE SIDED BEATDOWN!!!!!

and does he last past 5 rounds vs Pac losing rounds 9-12 vs Bradley. That right there tells you the skill difference.

bradley is a magician and with his pawing jabs and sleight of hand hypnotize the judges into thinking he landed and will win a points decision against Floyd.

[Redd Foxx]

He worked his ass off to win 2 rounds against Pac. He wouldn't get any against May.

Bradley is more controlled than Hatton , Ricky just bullrushed because he was scared to give Floyd space where as Tim will box and in that create some distance giving Floyd the room to excel , from an opponents point of view I think Hatton would be a physically stronger fighter that Tim and his style lends to that , in the Floyd fight Hatton was the best conditioned physically and mentally that he has ever been in a boxing ring .

I think people under estimate Bradley's strength. He hasn't got power, but he is very strong. I think that it is possible, after losing some rounds, he will dig deep and go for inside fighting. Floyd is definitely superior to Bradley in that as well, but it does not mean Bradley can not win a round. I also feel Floyd is more flat footed these days as well. Bradley has got a chin and heart, and is full of guts that will try to take it to Floyd when needed. I doubt Bradley boxes Floyd, he will try to make it messy.

All this hate towards Bradley is because Manny Pacquiao is ranked at #5.

Bradley could win 1 round against Mayweather after having beaten Pacquiao.

And Pacquiao isn't on any decline. It was just that Manny finally fought someone who had a pulse and found out that he shouldn't have bought into his own hype.

The proof of the aforementioned statement is Juan Manuel Marquez. Every time Pacquiao faced JMM he couldn't close the deal and relied heavily on judges to save his ass.

Bradley is no JMM IMO, but he's a live dog with a desire to win and didn't come to plod forward for the glory of a hype job. That alone was enough to have Pacquiao's own fans claiming that he's half the man he used to be despite being younger than Mayweather.

And the absolute WORST part is that those same fans were saying that BEFORE the Bradley fight ever took place!

The posts are still here.

There are still a couple of losers in denial hanging around the site like D4th and Hugh Grant, but they are in "petition" mode and want to get enough signatures to get Manny back in the running for a top position.

They won't ever answer the question that asks who Pacquiao beat since Diaz that could possibly warrant him being the #1 anything. I mean ... you have to beat a top 3 fighter to get into the top 3. Which top 3 fighter did Manny Pacquiao EVER beat at WW or jrMW?

Instead of facing that reality, these guys are hurting really bad and have reduced themselves to discussing Bradley's chances in a fantasy matchup with Floyd.

Boxingscene should really start up a "Pacquiao really was a hype job" support group.

We know who the first two founding members will be, but there are A LOT more who need that group just as much.

He'd win a couple, maybe 3. Bradley is more comfortable moving forward, and would outwork Floyd for a couple rounds.

Bradley would not box Floyd Mayweather. He is smarter than that, and would know going in that his best chance is pressuring and outworking Mayweather.

What on earth are you on about? What top fighter did floyd ever fight to be no1 p4p no1. While pac was beating the barreras of this world, Floyd was beating Gattis, and manfredys.

Floyd had never beaten a top 3 p4p fighter in the world to become no1 p4p. Closest he got was Corrales but he wasnt top 5 fighter material. Being fabourite against Floyd dont mean to say Corrales was the best fighter in the world or even no2,3,4 or 5.

[JK1700]

I believe he probably would. In the early rounds people tend to win rounds against Floyd because that's when he studies your style and figures out what to do more so than letting his hands go which happens more in the middle and late rounds when he has your style figured out and knows what works and what doesn't. We saw this against De La Hoya, Hatton, Mosley and several other opponents. I could see Bradley giving him some trouble in the early rounds but once Floyd figures out his style it's a wrap. I see it being a 119-109, 118-110 type of fight. Not competitive at all.

Those two fights are almost 6 years apart from each other.

& Corrales was more than solid when Floyd fought him. IMO Floyd earned his spot by being consistent.

I do think Bradley can win a round vs Mayweather of course. Attempts at roughing up and inside fighting may edge a given round. Other than that I think Floyd most likely takes the UD.

Look, I think Bradley would have given any version of Pacquiao problems, even beat him. The only punch Pacquiao could land was the straight/ sweeping left hand, and Bradley managed to take that punch away from him in the second half. Pacquiao is still on the decline though, his conditioning, foot speed aren't the same and Manny's legs are the most important assets to his style. I've noticed this since the Margarito fight, can't understand why you would deny that
