Comments Thread For: Richardson: Bradley, Garcia Capable of Shocking Floyd

[Tweezy316]

I thought Mayweather-Guerrero was more competitive than Mayweather-Canelo. Canelo had a few moments in spurts, but Floyd was in total control and won 10 clear rounds on my scorecard. But, Floyd is definitely aging, but even at this point, I think he'd beat Bradley and Garcia as long he looks like the Floyd who fought Canelo/Guerrero. I don't know how he will look this year, so i can't say for sure if he'll finally look old enough in the ring to lose to them yet.

floyd took no damage in either of those fights. and with his dad back and floyd focused on defense again noone can touch him. only person beating floyd is father time. only person who will give him problems is erislandy lara

Anyone but Khan

Both Garcia and Bradley would at least extend Floyd as both have proven their resilience,although I like Garcia I think it would be Bradley of the pair that would give floyd big trouble but I have to finish by saying PLEASE anyone but old glass jaw, the man who does that funny dance Khan!

Bradley can, Garcia won't.

Danny catches you off the 3-4-5, not the 1 that Floyd throws.

Also, people have this over inflated sense his of boxing, because he prepared to move against someone that's coming at him non stop, Lucas Matthysse. Floyd fights nothing like Lucas.

Horrible stylistic match up for Danny.

Intriguing clash of styles for Bradley, which is what makes it interesting.

Yup I agreed with ****m on the Bradley part, I think the Danny co-sign was just a fellow Philly thing and respect for young Danny whom IS talented, just not "challenge Mayweather" talented. At least not yet he isn't. Timmy would be a veeeery interesting stylistic matchup for Mayweather. May should and i believe would win but it's just so intriguing because Bradley is a chameleon fighter.

I agree he looked better in the Canelo fight as well. He wasn't troubled at all vs Canelo. The thing is, he wasn't really forced to go into a plan b or c in the canelo fight. He just had to do the same thing every round.

Guerrero at least forced him to use his legs a lot more, which meant we got to see a little more variety to his game plans. I was actually quite impressed with Mayweather in that fight.

All that being said, I simply can't see Bradley or Garcia beat him. They just don't have the tools.

Guerrero has a dirty/mauling style similar like Hatton. It's the type of style that forces Floyd to perform at a higher pace than usual, and Bradley can fight like that too when he wants to, but i don't think it'd be enough to beat Floyd.

nobody is beating floyd, hes just doing charity work the rest of his career, giving opponents big paydays. there is no threat, he beats anybody. ONLY fighter that can make things interesting is sergio martinez if fully healthy.

It would be lovely to see him against Bradley anytime from now to 2015 when he retires. Garcia should be ready after another 2/3 fights at 140/147. Am sure with Mayweather ageing everyone else stands a better chance at beating him.

[SoulByThePound]

I see both fights being made in 2015. Bradley's Top Rank contract should be up and Garcia should be ready. We'll have to suffer through Khan/Maidana this year but looking forward to those fights.

what are you talking about the toprank-GBP issue is fabricated

[Mr. Philadel]

Bring a bag of money down to 140 and Swift would give Floyd a sick rumble imo....nobody walks through or over TB so I don't buy into that myth about him not having pop...I think he has respectable power....but Floyd still would out box him for a 9-3, 8-4 type UD imo

Swift vs TB became my dream fight after TB beat the GREAT Marquez.....I wanna see that fight badly!!...keep both fighters away from Floyd for the time being and let them continue to beat the other top tier fighters from 140-147 for the next year and half and the stew would be hot....some Floyd vs Pac type hotness lol

Swift vs TB is the rumble for the throne when the OG's like Floyd, Pac and Marquez start getting hit by their birth certificates ......trust me!!!

No doubt about it. Can't play with age, although May has not taken a lot of damage so he will be able to fight long. That still doesn't make him any younger though and does not make his hands or feet faster or stronger. May should fight Bradley sooner than later as the more he waits, the more Timmy's chances grow at upsetting him.

Agreed, it's his most competitive opponent at the moment, I want Maidana to get that shot, but I want to see Floyd fight Bradley this year for sure.
