Bradley vs Cotto @ 154+ lbs.

[Fists_of_Fury]

Who wins and how? Who fought tougher competition? Who's style troubles the other more? Has one beat better fighters than his current opponent in your opinion?

[Build That Wall]

T-Brad by decision. Bradley's movement and boxing skill would frustrate Cotto just like How Mayweathers and Trouts boxing skill did. Clottey also frustrated Cotto and Clottey got Robbed vs Cotto.

[ImStillHere]

Cotto wins. He's better at everything bar taking a shot and Bradley won't hurt him. Cotto walks him down and stops him late. Cotto is so underestimated on here.

Bradley's last win was what? He lost to Manny, twice. He lost to Ruslan... what other fights has he had since those? He's lost to the two biggest punchers he's faced but he's supposed to beat Cotto who hits harder than either of those two guys?

um you conveniently left out the fight where he outboxed marquez who was coming off the greatest win of this century ......

the fact is bradley is better than cotto in every dept except punching power , but cotto is just too big at this point so cotto may stop him

[The Problem Child]

Look, Bradley still has some SERIOUS Provodnikov problems lol. How dare you even put him in the same sentence as Cotto. He would get absolutely trashed.

[jvsnypes]

Both have very good tough resumes and both can execute different styles in the ring. I honestly don't think Bradley would be at his best at 154. The extra weight would slow him down. Cotto has been fighting at that weight for years now. And now that he is under Roach and going back to the body consistently, I think it would make for a long night for Tim. Tim would have to hurt him to keep him off, and I don't know if he has the punching power to do it. But, Tim will always be a problem in the ring for any fighter. His skill level and championship pedigree makes him an A level fighter in my opinion. I hope he stays at 147. I truly believe he could become a future all time great fighting in that division. Welterweight has a very good solid roster of fighters. If Tim could fight and beat them, there is no question that he should be a hall of famer. Arum has him thinking about the money instead of legacy. He needs to be careful. A fighter like Cotto or Canelo in those upper weight classes could shorten and ruin his career.

Oh, my bad. So he beat Marquez... so did Chris John. JMM is incredibly, incredibly overrated his name and career revolves around Manny. He is a one dimensional counter-puncher on steroids who can only win if his opponent comes forward. Even still, Bradley beat a JWW or LW in JMM Cotto is a completely different monster and he's a lot more versatile than JMM.

[Outwest Exp 355]

Cotto walks right through Bradley like he's a nobody.

Cotto beats him from pillar to post IMO
Bradley is a huge overachiever. One of those top fighters I've never been able to understand what makes him good.
I don't really see anything outside of good speed, great conditioning, a big heart and a decent chin. As far as ability goes he hasn't much.
I just do not see this highly skilled, slick boxer people talk about.
