    The question we should be asking is whether Bradley is shot or not. Did provodnikov ruin him?

    I know for a fact that a Bradley pre Provo beats Brook. However, I'm not sure he's the same fighter. I still have Bradley winning a close points decision, but I wouldn't be surprised if Brook beat the current version of Bradley.

      Bradley would outbox him. There are too many subtle adjustments that Tim does that will allow him to put rounds in the bank. Bradley wears him down with body shots and wins a UD.

        Vazquez, Witter, Cherry, Holt, Peterson, Abregu, Alexander, Provodnikov, Marquez, Chaves, Vargas

        Pretty damn good resume
        Yeah, he looks just vulnerable enough at times to make people think he is not as good as he is but he dominates the majority of almost every fight he is in. He'll win 4 or 5 rounds in a row and then get rocked and look hurt only to recover and assume control but people only really remember the parts where he is hurt. No one gets the kind of resume that he has by being mediocre.

          Any version of Bradley loses against Brook.

          Brook is the bigger man, the better boxer with great timing, the far bigger puncher, the excellent jab to constantly offset the smaller guy, he's got a great mix of straight punches and hooks.....He's got virtually every advantage.

          I also just saw Bradley get put on ***** street by one punch from an opponent with Malignaggi level power.

            Why are we acting as if he's a world class fighter when he's not?

            Of course Brook would beat Bradley. Easy!
            Why is Brook fighting scrubs instead of real talent all of a sudden?

            Gavin, Dan Ion, Porter, Robles, Senchenko compared to Vargas, Chaves, Pacquiao and Marquez. Someone is trying to feed Brook a steady diet of tincans now that he has the belt. That kind of a diet is a recipe for disaster when you step back up, regardless of whether it's against Bradley or not.

              I don't think it would be easy, but Brook has a great game at range and his punches are very short and powerful, doesn't telegraph them.

                Ah, classic resume wars.

                Doesn't change the fact that Brook the absolute living shyt out of Bradley. Any version of Bradley.

                  A while back I would've picked Bradley with confidence, but I'm not exactly sure where he's at at the moment. He's been in some tough fights, and has kind of seemed like he's declining as of late. I hope I'm wrong.
