Timothy Bradley

[DaxxKahn]

Good win for Bradley, I have been a fan of this kid for a while now...I predicted him to win over Holt in the Showtime Media Poll and I predicted Him in the poll to beat Witter.....

The one thing he needs to do is avoid squaring up after getting off but maybe after being floored by Holt last night he will have that in mind for the future

As for him not sitting on his punches...IMO that will come in time...He is young and still only 25 fights....He has improved over the last few years and comes into every fight with a little something extra then the fight previous....

As for the knockdown that F'ing shot should have starched Bradley for the first second I thought the fight was over....

Tim got up quick and then had the ring saavy to take the knee and make sure his head was clear....Very smart!!...

I don't think that proved any weakness in his jaw,

Good fight for him and in another 4 or 5 fights he will be ready for a bout with one of the big names

I think he would beat Campbell and Diaz.

[JT Rock]

I think he would beat Campbell and Diaz.

How do you figure?

Bradley couldnt break an egg, Campbell would counterpunch his ears off... Diaz would grind him down...

Bradley lacks the pop to keep a guy like Diaz off of him

Workrate. Bradley can keep a more consistant pace than Campbell and there are too many unknowns with Nate at 140 at his age. Plus even if Campbell does effectively counterpunch him all night, it doesnt mean hel win the fight. Bradley will still outland him. As for Diaz, Bradley doesnt need to keep him off him. If Diaz comes staight in against him, Bradley will box him to a decision. Diaz at 140 I dont think will have the power to hurt Bradley. Bradley can get to Diaz though through accumulation of punches imo.

I'm a Witter fan and everything I've seen from Bradley has impressed me!

^^ i always hated witter an im british

[TheDemolitionDan]

Bradley is a pretty good fighter, but I don't think he can be an elite fighter. I like him though he has a very good attitude, but his limited skill set can only get him so far. I would like to see him fight Paulie Malignaggi. I think he would win, but stylistic wise I would like to see it.

Bradley is a very nice guy and a very hard worker. You have to respect him. He commits to the body and gets low and is hard to hit. Also has fast hands for being such a musclebound fighter.

Only thing I don't like bout him is those little bitch punches he does on the inside. The lil slaps he was doin to Holt.

Didnt think he had fans

I like Bradley.His mentality,tenacity and work ethic.He is a hard little rock that will stick around for some time.He showd some very experienced smarts last night and over all last three fights were very solid displays.That left hook just swept him off his feet....a three punch combo really.Bradley was literally stretched flat on back,poped up...assesed and took the count.What a shot!!!I think hes one of the more mentally focused/determined guys out there.

I do think he can look a bit tattered at times.Open down the middle as he fights like a bangers mindset,squaring up.Capable sharp right hand,smooth mover but not a big puncher.Loads up too much in spots.He leads with his head from pretty early on.Not as a tactic but stylistically.He has great work rate,good feet,and nice hand speed.Understand he has a mandatory deadline to face Devon Alexander.Big descision for him!Very tough line up hes putting together really?!

I thought for the most part Bradley looked great on Saturday against Holt. He showed grit, determination, and discipline. He outfought a proven champion who was taller and a heavier puncher. He was hit with a knockout type punch in that first round and raised himself off of the mat, took the knee like an experienced ring technician and dusted himself off. How many fighters get up after that kind of punch from Holt? Moreover, from that point going forward, he thoroughly dominated Holt.

The things he did wrong are easily fixed. He left himself open for that big shot too frequently, but at the same time, as the fight went on, he learned to keep his hands up defensively. That is something his trainers will undoubtedly work on.

At the end of the day, in a matter of a year, Bradley has beat Kendall Holt, Edner Cherry, and Junior Witter. And he is only 25. He has much to learn but he is a young champion with a bright future.

He's beaten them but the fact that the wins over Witter and Holt were so close suggests that his level is around the Holt, Urango, Kotelnik level and unless he improves considerably he'll never be an elite fighter.

I like him and he's a nice guy plus he put Witter on his arse which is nice, but i don't think he is anything special. I think he has the potential to win or lose close fights against the likes of Malignaggi, Kotelnik, Torres, Urango etc...but that's about as far as he'll go imo...unless he can dramitically improve.

[Mr140]

Dont understand what people keep saying he needs to improve to be elite. What divsion are we talking about here he beat all top guys pretty much. There is Hatton who is good fighter but lets be honest in a year i think he while be done and Bradley while be at the top of the divsion. I mean who going take him out Diaz wont have any power at 140 and Bradley i think could pose his while on him and Nate is getting old and who knows. Pac i dont think while fight him and not sure how Marquez is going move up. Ortiz i think is overrated fighter and i take Bradley to beat him as well. Not like he is in a era of Duran, Leonard and Hearns i just dont get it.

I thought that fight was boring as can be myself except for the knockdown. Nothing special IMO. It's pretty embarrassing that Bradley holds two championship belts, just my opinion. Your right, I didn't notice any serious power.

Timothy is a tough man
