Neil, Bradley is like what? 27-28 now? He's BEEN in his prime for a few years now. Trust me, he's not getting any better. In fact, I'm willing to bet that when its all said and done...... Bradley's best performance will always be the Peterson fight. I think that fight was Bradley at his VERY best. McGirt-Bradley would be a good fight at 140 though. Bradley would have his moments, though he would get clearly outboxed. At 147, it'd be all Buddy.
bradley has shown improvement. he is a dedicated , clean living guy. he can still improve. and he can still prove more when he faces better competition.
What the last few years have proven is that Bradley, Khan, Peterson, Berto, and Ortiz are all roughly in the same calibre as fighters. I thought about including the Alexander the fake in that list, but he's a step below.
absolutely those two. he can show a lot even in defeat if he gets a fight with either. others may emerge. it isnt his fault for what is available at that weight now.
Its still POSSIBLE Khan might beat Bradley. Don't get me wrong, after last night I'd pick Bradley. But I wouldnt totally count Khan out. Berto IMO would beat Bradley, and Ortiz would have a pretty good chance of beating him.
we'll see. of the guys you listed they all had competitive fights with one another. except bradley who whipped one of them with ease.
Bradley did put it on Peterson's ass. It was a very good performance, I'll give him that. He was also beating the shit outta that whiney bitch Nate Campbell, until Nate quit.
McGirt probably beats every single fighter you just named, imo. They really all are crap. Ortiz might be the exception, and that only due to his massive size advantage.
That's a weird thing to say seeing as when they fought, Bradley was clearly in another league to Peterdude and beat him easily. As scrubby as Timmy looked against Pacquiao, he's clearly better than Peterdude, and Khan, Ortiz etc.
Buddy wins big on points. His victory over Simon Brown was one of the most beautiful exhibitions of boxing I have ever seen, and I was lucky enough to be there in person.
That is intense. It was on a Saturday afternoon/evening at The Mirage right before I got out of the military.
