    Garcia's another fighter that struggles with movement. It's a really bad style match-up for DG. I think Bradley beats him to a comfortable UD.

      Bradley could beat all on that list even Floyd! On the flip side he could also lose 3 or 4 fights. Someday in a perfect world TR and GB will have their fighters fight each other.

        I like Thurman over Bradley. Maybe he gets out-boxed early but he's mobile himself, I think he gets into range to land that Ruslan shot on Tim at some point.

          Tim is dead in his prime now. He beats every fighter on that list. A fight between Tim and Floyd and Tim and Garcia would go down as some of the greatest fights ever. This kid is simply a great fighter who is unliked and under appreciated. He beats Broner as well. The only fighter on that list who could really give him problems would be Khan, and that's because of the height difference. Khan has very fast hands and runs around the ring a lot. It would be hard for Tim to get to him. Beating Floyd is just a matter of Tim fighting the right style. If he was dumb enough to try to out box Floyd, he would definitely lose. But i see him fighting Floyd the way he fought Holt, out working him.

          I will be glad when his contract runs out with TR. TR put his name on the map, but GB will make him famous and a hall of famer.

            He can compete with everybody on that list. Obviously Floyd beats him. Guerrero and Thurman probably would give him the most trouble but he could pull those fights off as well. I wouldn't mind seeing Bradley vs Ortiz.

              Out of that list only two, Mayweather and Thurman. Thurman is a big dude for the division, his foot speed and explosiveness may be a little too much for Bradley to handle.

                guerrero beats the **** out of timmy

                timmy is overtated. very solid but his lack of power will hurt him vs big strong fighters.

                  He beats them ALL. He will bring a fight to Floyd that floyd aint ready for.

                  He probably struggles against Maidana, just the style.

                    I like Guerrero's chances against Bradley too although I forsee a close fight on the cards rather than a one-sided beating.

                    I have Bradley beating 50% of the guys on the GBP line up, but I think there are a few potential losses in there too given the style match-ups and power differential.

                      He can beat everyone but Floyd. He should be favored over everyone but Floyd.
