    I'll still pick Bradley to win a ud but a Rios KO is certainly very possible. Rios is a relentless puncher with power in both hands and Bradley seems past prime.

      Bradley needs to just box and not go to war.



      I feel that Teddy Atlas is a mistake, but who knows.

        It definitely could happen.

        However I see Bradley taking it by a relatively easy UD. But we´ll see.. Who knows, maybe I am wrong. Bradley has been hurt in many fights and Rios definitely has power behind his punches and a good chin, he can take Bradley´s punches

          For the first time, I'm scared this might be the outcome.

          Provodnikov was unexpected.


          If Bradley boxes, easy 10-2 type of fight. But Bradley don't just do that, he can't help himself. He's taken a lot of big shots the last few years and Brandon can hurt you and knows how to finish a fight. I'm a fan of Rios. But still,


          WAR BRADLEY!!

            I agree. The Rios in his third Alvarado fight beats the Bradley that fought Vargas.

            That Rios was a sharp, relentless monster in that fight.

              I think Bradley with a right tactic will outbox Rios easily.

                Nah. Rios is too slow and that shot that caught timmy
                Was a perfectly timed shot that timmy walked right into.

                This gonna look like timmy vs marquez and timmy vs provodnikov in the middle rounds.

                Timmy ud 9-3

                  Said that in a previous tread. I think so too.

                    It wouldn't surprise me if it did. Bradley has not been the same since that first Manny Pacquiao bout. Since that time he has been dropped, twisted his ankle, rocked, wobbled and even struggled with stamina issues; Which caused him the victory in that Diego Chaves bout.

                      Don't get me wrong, I think a prime Bradley wins but he is no longer prime.
                      I think he will fight a very cautious, technical fight this time. Atlas won't BS around and will tell him where he needs to focus his efforts. Offensively, Bradley doesn't need much coaching but in the area of defense, he is getting sloppy. They will most likely work on defense for this camp and take a defensive, counter punching approach in this fight.
