Comments Thread For: Tim Bradley Has Interest in Cotto Fight, Says Trainer

[radioraheem]

These clowns have to be kidding if they think Tim will go up to 155-160 for the MW title. If Cotto doesn't compromise, this fight won't happen.

Bradley can make 154 lbs easier than he can 147 lbs.

So Martinez pleaded with the WBC to let him out of his mandatory with Rubio so that he could fight Cotto, on the grounds that the winner would fight Rubio. Now we're gonna see Cotto get to bypass Rubio to fight Bradley. I'm a huge Cotto fan and I'd rather see him fight Bradley over Rubio, but this just shows why boxing is screwed. If the sanctioning bodies would stop rigging rankings and making people fight the fights that they are supposed to, this sport would be miles better.

Cotto is a blown up welterweight anyway, that's why they're interested.

Dog **** jumping a weight class that he's never fought in(154) to fight at a catch weight for a title cuz they don't want cotto's pants pulled down by a real middleweight next will be PAC for his "9th" title at yet another catch weight

[Teetotaler]

Danm Bradley's a fn beast. He'll fight anyone. If the fight gets made I see it going the distance. Can't see either fighter getting ko'd

Sure this fight sounds good but please for the love of the fans make it on HBO WCB and not HBO PPV. Bradley in many eyes is 1-3 in his last 4 fights with no KO's, he doesn't deserve another PPV. I don't want to watch HBO 24/7 and face offs with Bradley doing his usual shtick and come in the ring fight night punching like a 7 year boy doing absolute anything to hurt or beat Cotto.

This fight shows how desperate is Bob Arum and Top Rank, whatever happen to the Top Rank and Golden Boy truce??

Not in my eyes bro!.....agree to disagree man .but i agree greedy bob is desperate!

You are probably right, but you cant deny it would be a good fight!

Nah he is probably wrong. Bradley is the superior boxer here, and has superior toughness and handspeed. Cotto is more seasoned, powerful and can probably make better adjustments. 50/50 fight, but my money is on Timmy. You guys dont understand just how good he is yet.

I knowjust how good he is, he boxed in a tournament in my hometown of perris ca, back in the 90's... how do i know? Because i boxed on that same tourney in a different weight class.....and i am a huge bradley fan just as big as mathed but iam not foolish enough to say bradley has better skills then cotto cuz cotto is a bad mofo... but i will agree that the fight is 50/50 but i wont say bradley is the better fighter.

Oh well okay, thats awesome my man. I give you due space then, you obviously know what youre talking about. I agree with you anyway, this is 50/50 to me. I just think Bradley's superior handspeed and conditioning JUST MIGHT provide the difference, but I can also see Cotto's superior power, gameplan and discipline providing the difference. The winner is going to have to be on his A+ game regardless, because this fight WILL happen.
