Did I say that???
No, if you go back and read I said that no way in hell do Ortiz, Paulie, and Lopez beat Bradley. Mayweather and Pacquiao beat him, and I'd favor Marquez slightly over Bradley.
If Bradley fights reckless and throws wild punches like he did at times against Manny, Marquez will probably counter him and make him pay all night. If he forces Marquez to be the agressor, uses his jab and tries to counter Marquez when he leads, he has a good shot to beat Marquez. But if Bradley fights that way, it'll be a boring fight probably.Comment

Well mop the floor is bad word choice. The only fighter that has mopped the floor with Marquez was Floyd, which was a style nightmare for him. Marquez was forced to be the agressor against a superior boxer, who just so happens to be the most skilled fighter of his era.
If Bradley goes forward and fights reckless, with wide punches and what not, Marquez will pick him apart, and win a fairly close and competitive UD. If Bradley forces Marquez to go forward, uses his jab and counters when Marquez leads, I think he can edge a UD over him.Comment

I'm not being contentious but can you cite some examples?? Joshua Clottey doesn't count (granted he's NOT African American). I'm not talking about putting fighters on a bill. I'm talking about actually putting effort into marketing them.
How many years did we have to go through BS PPV of "Latin Fury" for example?
I remember when Zahir Raheem picked Erik Morales apart on the same card with Pac. Yet Morales was still granted the Pac fight (granted, it would/did sell more than a Raheem vs. Pac matchup). Zahir had to wait and then got a fight with Freitas if I recall that was on Showtime to a near empty arena.
I'm not saying they should have thrown the house at Raheem (I'm just using an example) I'm saying there was NO effort at all in promoting him.
I'm struggling even to name a viable Black Top Rank fighter thats not a journeyman.
My simple point is that Bradley is STUCK and I think we agree on this. He's NOT economically viable skill or image wise.Comment

.....so if Bradley takes Marquez out of his comfort zone and exploits one of his weaknesses the same way Floyd did he might beat him? Sounds reasonableWell mop the floor is bad word choice.

Okay, but how would Katsidis knocking him down fit in to all of this? I'm trying to understand Bushbabys logic. Can you make sense of it?Comment

Because Katsidis is nothing but a crude brawler, no craft whatsoever but he hurt & dropped Marquez. Bradley is bigger & better at everything except maybe power. But who knows considering it is 2 weight classes that separate the 2. Don't worry if the fight gets made we can end all debates by betting accounts. Let me know whats up......so if Bradley takes Marquez out of his comfort zone and exploits one of his weaknesses the same way Floyd did he might beat him? Sounds reasonable
