Wow, two great warriors benefiting from each other.....I wonder where this sparring took place?I live close to Bradley's gym so how awesome would it be if I could perhaps see them spar live

Interesting the way certain Matthysse fans perceive Bradley, Matthysse obviously thinks more of highly of Bradley otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to train with him! Pro fighters realize the importance of good sparring so I doubt he would spar with Bradley if he knew it'd be a cake walk.

Come on guys, both fighters have a fight scheduled. Matthysse in Sept. , Bradley in Oct. I seriously doubt they are taking big risks in sparring and possibly jeopardize their fights.
Matthysse, right now, is probably closer to his top form, since he fights in 2 weeks.
What I find interesting is the decision to spar each other at this particular time.
Bradley is much lighter on his feet and has faster hands than Garcia, but has less pop.
In my opinion Matthysse is working on cutting off the ring and on ring generalship. If he can set the pace of the fight, and force Danny to exchange for long periods, his power can make the difference.
As for Bradley...
Matthysse is not a counter puncher, fights nothing alike JMM.
Maybe sparring a big puncher could be a way to check his punch resistance and regain confidence?. It would make sense, in spite of the W Bradley was almost literally out on his feet for most of the Provodnikov fight.
