How would you rate Bradley's defense?

[Beercules]

To me he doesn't have much defense, he has some head movement and by no means is he a punching bag BUT he does get hit clean often.

[Dr Rumack]

It's good, but it mainly comes from his feet. If he gets put of position he can be very vulnerable.

[Uklad]

Its good with some minor flaws.

[Bushbaby]

It depends on the level of opponent. Bradley seems like one of those fighters that fights down to, or up to the level of opponent he's facing.

[BennyST]

Overall, it's not bad, but when he goes on the offensive, he does have a tendency to leave himself very exposed and in positions that are liable to get him hurt/hit cleanly. It doesn't happen that often, but certainly enough to be a concern.

[bojangles1987]

It's good, but nothing top-tier. The Prov fight is a bad look, but other than that he typically displays good defense.

It's often when he does one of his weird body punch flurries, and he tends to sort of stick his chin. He can get a bit wild when he goes on offense. It seems to happen only in certain fights, and often at the start when he's a little hyped up maybe.

Yep. That's what really worried me going into the Marquez fight. You don't get away with that against a counter puncher as sharp as Marquez. He managed to fight a mostly controlled fight though.

That tendency when he goes offensive is how he ended up getting caught every single time against Ruslan.

I voted he has a good defense. If he didn't he would not be rated one of the top 5 pfp. because his offense is good but not overwhelming. He is not the best fighter in the world but he is a good all around boxer.

It's pretty much like everything he does - decent/average
