I don't see how Mayweather can beat Bradley

Quite obviously, actually.

Bradley's offense isn't sharp enough to land on Mayweather. Bradley would likely lose a wide decision for that reason alone. Add in that Bradley would most assuredly end up moving forward, and the openings Mayweather can take advantage of when Bradley gets wild, and there you have it.

So let me guess what the plan is.

You guys hate Mayweather right?? But you hype up these flatfooted slow punching sluggers in front of him.

Canelo, Baldomir, Guerrero, Maidana...

These guys get in here and all try the exact same steps, pressure him into the corner and land shots, never works!!!
The last fast non brawler that gave Mayweather Problems was Cotto, and Judah.

Maybe you guys should try hyping up Lara and Bradley to fight Floyd.
But let me guess, Maidana has a better chance than Bradley?

So to beat Floyd you only have to be fleet-footed with fast hands. I guess Floyd did duck Khan after all...

Bradley is not good enough from the outside to give Floyd problems (he barely outboxed JMM who always struggles with boxers). He will have a big height and reach disadvantage. He will not outbox Floyd. He will have to get inside, and allow Floyd to do what he does best: move and counter-punch.

Lara is a different problem for Floyd: he's taller, has a longer reach, he's a southpaw and he has more power (than Bradley). He won't have to lead and take risks vs Floyd.

I don't see how Floyd can lose to Bradley unless he has a bad night and Mayweather is always in top shape and never has had a bad night yet. Floyd is just a bit better at almost everything than Bradley. Bradley does throw more punches than Floyd in fights with other fighters but will he throw more punches than Floyd when he fights Floyd? Mayweather is such a sharp accurate counter puncher that most of his opponents don't throw as many punches at him as they throw at other fighters. Floyd's punches are more accurate and faster than Bradley's punches. He takes head punches better than Bradley who has been knocked down and hurt a few times. He punches harder than Bradley and he has a better defense than Bradley. I am sure Bradley would put up a good brave fight but Mayweather is just too good for him.
