    Bradley is just too Wild. I dont see him being about to win a round against Pacquiao. He could probably end up going down Ricky Hatton style.

    ?? This is more or less the exact opposite of my impression of Bradley. I'd say he's workmanlike, technically sound but just not very dynamic. Where are you getting "wild" from? Pacquiao is wilder than Bradley.

    Just the way he throws his punches he opens himself up a lot. I wouldnt say he is good technically.

    Bradley is the epitome of a boxer-puncher. He does not wait for you to come to him, but he does not exactly smother his own style. He IS Evander Holyfield at 5'7"...

    This is absolutely the best fight Pacquiao could be faced with outside of Mayweather. But deep down, I think this is a harder fight than Mayweather. Bradley is actually bigger than pacquiao @ ~154fight night, has a GRANITE chin, and he fights to win rounds.

    I know some people including me hate his noggin getting in the way of everything, but I think he has made considerable changes to try and avoid that moniker.

    This fight gets my two thumbs up... But sadly,I just don't think it is marketable. Bradley's career is going to go down the tube if he doesn't land a good fight soon. He's really a remarkable matchup for anyone.

    I also would like to note that Peterson NEVER had a come forward style before the Khan fight. Somebody had mentioned this and I was just recollecting the stinker he and Ortiz put up for a draw, where Peterson was almost content to be an opponent that night until he turned up the gas in teh later rounds to get some points back... I think he brought the house to Khan. Great fight, but I don't expect him to come out with the same fire lit under him.

    I concur with Shza on this one. Like Ward, Bradley lacks power and it affects his popularity. Another similarity is that both fighters have been accused of employing headbutts as a strategy.

    and Holyfield.
