Comments Thread For: Bradley Prefers Cotto Showdown Over Pacquiao III

[mathed]

Zero chance Cotto fights at 147 again.

After Cotto lost to Canelo, Bradley has the upper hand; he should demand a CW of 150-152 for the fight.

Suppose Bradley fights and beats Cotto next. Bradley's resume would be up there with one of the best around no questions asked.

Wins over:

Pac (on paper it's a win)
JMM
Cotto
Rios
Vargas
Peterson
Alexander
Vazquez
Holt
Casamayor
Provodnikov
Cherry
Witter

For sure. Bradley gets massive props.

However, I think Bradley loses to both Manny and Cotto. He's taken a lot of hard shots in his last few fights. I mean, he almost lost by KO to Vargas of all ppl. Imagjne what a bigger guy like Cotto would do if he landed flush?

Bradley loses his next fight. Quote me on that.

I can't help but think of Mikey Garcia in this situation. If he had patience and continued fighting,he was getting paid well enough, and he probably could of already won a title at 135lbs. Mikey Garcia could of been an probably would of been Pacquiao's final fight. He then could of made millions. But no, like many fighters of this generation they want everything now and up front. They have no patience and trust in themselves to know if they just take care of business in the ring the big fight/big payday will happen. And in this case Mikey Garcia would of had that big fight/big payday against the Pacman. So sad to see a fighter waste his prime years away.

Even after Cotto's loss to Canelo, I don't think Bradley has the upper hand with Cotto.

Yet...even if he did have the upper-hand, I don't think Cotto would be able to admit it. He wouldn't allow Bradley to dictate the terms and wouldn't allow Bradley to set the catchweight.

Personally, I like the idea of them fighting at 150-152...just don't think it can happen.

only canelo and pac will have leverage over cotto, Bradley has a small fanbase and brings no ppvs...

I think Cotto is done, I expect him to retire. He looks beat up and worn out, even during training camp for the Canelo fight, he looked beat up.

Cotto has been through so much, too many recent defeats, too many change of trainers. Mentally and physically it's worn him out.

Smart move from Bradley. If He wins he gets absolutely no credit for beating a fighter on his way out.
