    DLH KO 1 at 135, and KO 2 at 140. And no, thats not an exaggeration. Khan's handspeed means nothing here. Oscar was faster. Khan's handspeed is criminally overrated.

    Oscar would have knocked the shit outta Bradley too.

    Oscar is a fag, a phony personality, and a teen raper, but he was simply a different calibre fighter than Khan, Bradley, and Peterson.

    I mean nevermind Oscar, prime Hatton would clean house with Khan, Peterson, and Bradley.

    Look no further than the left hook Kendall Holt dropped Bradley with.

    Oscar would have smoked Bradley. Bradley would have a hard enough time dealing with Oscar's length and jab. Oscar would catch him in between his looping combos with the hook, and it'd basically be over.

    I honestly dont see what you see in Bradley. Bradley is the best junior welter in THIS era of flawed junior welters. In other eras, he's only a contender.

    Prime Hatton would have grinded Timmy down, and prime Tszyu would have sent him back to Cali in a box.

    I'm surprised you once said Bradley would last the distance with a prime Shane. Cause Shane would have beaten Timmy up just as badly as he did Lejia.

    I don't like Oscar and he was overrated from a historical standpoint, but Neil is fucking bonkers... Oscar in his prime ices every 140 pounder out there right now, he's visibly a different level of fighter... He knocks the shit out of Con

    Doesnt mean he couldnt do it. Once again, look at the left hook Holt dropped Bradley with. You know as well as we do that Oscar would land the same punch, and it would have a bigger effect.

    Bradley really has NOTHING for Oscar. Not enough power to deter him with. Not enough handpseed to beat him to the punch. Too many openings when he punches for Oscar NOT to exploit.

    holt hits very hand and landed an absolute BOMB on bradley, who hopped right back up. bradley is a tough, durable, and versatile fighter who is in great shape. very hard man to knock out.

    Holt woulda beat the shit outta Bradley that night if he was born with half a brain. He simply didnt let his hands go enough. I thought Holt blew that fight, more than Bradley won it.

    holt is what he is. a guy with a big punch, decent speed and not much else. that was a while ago as well. not as if bradley is the same guy as then.

    He wouldnt be the same guy after a 140lb De La hoya put gloves on him, either.

    Bradley's goodness is based on beating guys that Hoya would have steamrolled

    maybe or maybe not. but he wouldnt have steamrolled bradley. bradley would have beaten all the men the dildo recipient fought at 140lbs or below.

    Its tough to maintain your credibility in discussing a guy who you refer to as, "the dildo recipient," but I guess in Neils case, he needs entertain no illusions of a worthwhile take on De La Hoya.

    Bradley would have his hands full with MAG. I think that'd be a close fight.
