Comments Thread For: Tim Bradley Discusses Strategy To Defeat Miguel Cotto

Can't take anything else in this post serious behind this statement..

Did you follow Malanaggi's career? His Jab was insane and his movement was better. Also his career is comparable to Bradley's maybe even better.

Malignaggi's movement is not better than Tim Bradley's. Just because he makes a show of dancing around his opponent does not make him the better mover. Watch Bradley vs Peterson or Marquez and then point to me a fight where Malignaggi moves that well against an opponent of comparable skill.

Da ****????? Paulie's career is not even remotely close to as good as Bradley's.

The fact that you can point out two specific fights that displays Bradleys movement is proof enough that his movement is not better than Mallignagii. Malignagii came in and out on angles with a solid jab and moved smoothly around the ring. Bradley is a plotting mover, strait in straight out, he is also technically flawed (more then likely due to his corner). Though I will agree that Bradley is the more skilled fighter Malignagii was the better technical fighter and has a much higher ring IQ then Bradley, which we hear on showtime during his commentary.

Really? You think not? Tell me, other then a gift decision against Pac, what has Bradley done that's so vastly different then Malignagii? Malignagii has won 6 different titles through two weight divisions, Bradley has won 5 titles through 2 weight divisions. Malignagii has lost to huge names, has fought major compitition like Cotto, Hatton. Bradley fought Pac. Bradley would arguably lose to the same people that Malignagii has lost too. So I ask again, what has Bradley done in his career thats so vastly different from Malignagii?

Your first sentence makes no sense. Since when is posting sources or specific fights to talk about a bad thing? I can point to several more of Bradley's fights as examples of good movement; the two I named were matches where his movement separated him markedly from his opponent.

If you watch how he navigates the ring it's exactly the opposite of what you describe. Bradley strafes around his opponents, moving at lateral angles while maintaining the proper distance for his own offense to be effective. When he wants to fight on the outside he is very hard to track down.

Malignaggi doesn't have wins over elite fighters; Bradley does.

Bradley has wins over Vazquez, Witter, Holt, Peterson, Alexander, Marquez, and Provodnikov. Other than Provodnikov, all those wins were very clear.

Now tell me who Paulie's best wins are.

I think this all smoke and mirror coming from Timothy Bradley. If those two were to ever meet in a professional prize ring, then Bradley would be easily stopped because he lacks punching power to back Miguel up and gets hit way too often.

Additionally as we all know Miguel Cotto is a very solid puncher with power and at his best he is a hunter; Who likes to walk his opponents down and back them up while breaking then down to the body.

Dude you're out of your f**king mind. Tim Bradley is a legit A fighter. Paulette is an overachieving C fighter that got his ass smoked every single time he took a step up. The best name on his damn resume that he beat is a completely shot Zab Judah, lmao.

Please don't put those two in the same sentence together ever again.
