[Hougigo]

Me too. That's why I didn't pick Bradley to win.

that's what I hate. He'll make it a dog fight just because.

Final press conference highlights and face off

Sooner or later I think it's gonna turn into a dogfight.

It has too. Bradley isn't going to outbox one of the smartest boxers in the game. Anyone who thinks he will is nothing short of delusional.

True. I'm shocked quite a few posters here think that "Bradley is gonna outbox Marquez like Maywether did." Some ******ed shit right there. Not saying that Bradley can't win, but if he does it'll be by outworking Marquez and/or possibly causing a fight altering head butt. I don't see any other way Tim can win to be honest.

It's inevitable. Bradley isn't good enough to not get hit, and when he gets hit he hits back. Both these guys do.

JMM isn't Provodnikov, if he hurts Bradley, he will finish him.

Does anyone know if Bradley is a bigger underdog for this fight than he was against Manny?

[-PBP-]

Bradley adjust to whatever his opponent does. If his opponent wants to box, Bradley fights like against Casa, Holt and Devon. When his opponent wants to fight, he boxes like against Abregu, Peterson and Provo when he did what he was supposed to do.

Marquez is an intelligent, patient counter puncher and will even give rounds away studying at times. I expect them both to come out and box, but when Tim realizes that Marquez is the superior boxer and counter puncher, I expect him to become the aggressor. It will turn into a dogfight at some point.

From there its anyone's game. I think Bradley outworks him and wins a competitive UD but I can see people feel he will get careless and get caught.

No, I'm pretty sure he was a bigger underdog against Pacquiao. Right now Marquez is -135 and Bradley is +115. IMO the lines reflect how close this fight really is. It's Marquez's skills and experience against Bradley's youth and athleticism.

I'm ready..
