What style of fighter beats Bradley? Also what strategy?

Similar to how Bradley doesn't have one particular style, he sort of fights in an ambiguous style where as many people say he's good at everything but not great at anything in particular, well similar to that I feel like an opponent doesn't need a particular style but rather needs to be well rounded just like Bradley and simply out will him or out throw him.
Someone like Amir Khan for obvious reasons could do well since Bradley doesn't have the power to necessarily hurt Khan.
But honestly there may not be anyone right now that can defeat Bradley he's defeated the top guys of almost every major style.
He's beaten Alexander, Peterson, JMM, Pac...there's not many left standing that can test him. Maybe Mathysse as some people would consider Mathysse as an even heavier handed and more brutal version of Provodnikov so now that Prov has shown Bradley's chin can be cracked, Mathysse may be the guy to do it againComment

Mexico what was your score for the Marquez vs. Bradley and Pacquiao vs. Bradley fights?Anyone with power and stamina can beat Bradley.
Had Ruslan been giving his accurate KD, he beat Bradley.
Manny Pacquaio beat Bradley.
Marquez he barely won a very close draw-ish fight.
All you have to be is a A level fighter who wants to win and you will give him problems.Comment

Interesting points. It makes sense. I believe an offensive fighter with speed like Khan would do well.Similar to how Bradley doesn't have one particular style, he sort of fights in an ambiguous style where as many people say he's good at everything but not great at anything in particular, well similar to that I feel like an opponent doesn't need a particular style but rather needs to be well rounded just like Bradley and simply out will him or out throw him.

What were your scores for the Bradley vs. Marquez/Pacquiao fights?
What do you think Bradley's power is like? Do you think he hits as hard a Floyd?
Also in my opinion I think Provodnikov is a harder hitter than Matthysse. I also think that he has a better chin.Comment

Not many Top Rank fighters beat him. Pacquiao and Marquez have already shown that they are about even with TB. Provodnikov seemed to have KD'ed Bradley a couple of times but bad officiating prevented him from those points, and even then seemed to have punched himself out in the end.
Bradley can go up to 154 to fight Cotto and Martirosyan if he wanted to, or he can stay at 147 and fight Prov, Marquez, Pac over and over again.Comment

I am inclined to agree with you. I think anyone who is more athletic than Bradley like Pacquiao will win.Comment

Soggy I watched that fight several times now. In my opinion PACQUIAO WON by a wide margin (117-111). As ridiculous as it sounds though I think that Bradley's style makes scoring a nightmare, and while I disagree I can actually see how some people made the fight close-ish (115-113 W Pacquiao). I do however see no way that fight as a Bradley win or even a draw.Originally posted by SoggyLungsseriously just watch the pac fight...because bradley lost.
Pacquiao's style is not a common one. Who else do you have beating Bradley?Comment
