Who should Floyd Mayweather fight next?
- Thread starter dookie1
- Start date
I think Bradley would give Floyd a helluva fight! Bradley is the most highly skilled fighter that now knows when to brawl. The way he beat my boy Marquez was the best performance I seen this year since Rigo/Donaire! Mayweather has been winning his fights good but not that impressed after I watch the replays. He holds so much and his offensive output is very limited, he's just very accurate. Bradley would be the first fighter that would come in with a game plan that is not one dimensional since Cotto. And has been on the big stage before. There definitely won't be no KO since they BOTH hit just to connect but Im actually thinking Bradley is one fight away from being #2 or #1 p4p. I shouldn't be saying that but like I've said before Bradley's resume is a few fights away from being better than Floyds
Bradley would beat Mayweather! If he has CJ Ross and Duane Ford scoring the fight!
Nah for real though, Bradley is a tricky opponent but Floyd would figure him out after 4 rounds like he does everyone. The lack of power from Bradley would allow Floyd to fight anyway he pleases.

Nah man he figures them out. Floyd is remarkable at making adjustments. Zab Judah, first four rounds was doing great. Was up. Floyd figures out his speed makes the adjustments Judah gets shut out. Shane Mosley, won first two rounds and rocked Floyd bad rd 2. Floyd makes the adjustments, he gets Shane's speed down, he keeps the exact amount of distance he needs between them for the rest of the fight, beats Shane to the punch over and over and wins the rest of the rounds with ease.
So what is Bradley going to do? He out-boxed Marquez and looked great doing it but Marquez, like against Floyd, is a counter puncher by nature. When JMM is forced to be the aggressor against a boxer he's going to lose because thats not his style. Is Bradley going to out-box Floyd? No Floyd is too disciplined he will force Bradley to be the aggressor. When that happens out-boxing floyd goes out the window.
Can Bradley beat Floyd by being aggressive and applying pressure? Not without power. He could try to make it ugly and nasty but he wouldn't be scoring points like that against such an accurate puncher.
Bradley is like a Swiss Army knife - he has so many different tools which makes him versatile enough to compete with anyone. Unfortunately none of those tools are sharp or strong enough to beat Floyd.

U just never give Floyd credit lol. Your hatin is at a all time high. Floyd's domination over Canelo was much more impressive than what Bradley did to old ass Marquez lol. Nice try though. U think Bradley can beat Canelo? Canelo would send Bradley to the moon! Got Em!!

I don't agree with canelo victory more impressive than Marquez. Marquez is a legend. Hall of famer. Extremely skilled fighter with the credentials coming off the Pacquiao KO win.
Canelo...we still dont know how good Canelo really is. His best win is against Austin Trout which honestly could have easily been a draw or even a loss. Outside of that, Canelo hasn't accomplished shit in the sport. Best fight available for Floyd though since Canelo is such a big star. But how good is Canelo idk. Could he beat an elite fighter like say, Cotto or Lara? I don't know, it remains to be seen.

Ward has no one to fight at 168 with legit credentials and he is not willing to move up at weight to make a good fight. Floyd is gonna make fighters move up or DRAIN down to fight him, hence no legit 147 that can have the stamina he has will fight him. Plus most of GBP fighters are not great fighters at 147 in comparison to TR. Bradley will more than likely have another big stage fight with Manny and will probably win, in convincing fashion, can easily beat anyone in the GBP roster, plus has fought legit 140 and 147 lbrs under his resume and won. Now the question is who should Floyd fight next, and if its Khan, a legit loser, Garcia who is not a legit 147 lbr and has not been on the big stage yet, or even Broner who is too green for even a good fighter, then should Floyd remain at #1? NO. As long as Floyd doesn't fight legit greats, he can lose it to Bradley. Why arte people under estimating Bradley for?

Same answer as last time. Danny Garcia is better then Bradley and is not scared to fight Provodnikov.

Ruslan has been beastin lately but cmon, he can be out boxed and has before to a lesser opponent most no one even knows his name on friday night fights. I don't like Garcia but if he can beat Matthysse he can beat Ruslan no problem.

Its funny how after Floyd dissects Canelo all of a sudden Canelo isnt a big deal anymore and he never had a chamce haha. All I heard before the fight was made was that Floyd was scared, Canelo would knock Floyd out yada yada yada......U can disagree but Marquez aint what he used to be and Floyd beat a prime 23 year old that was bigger and hits very hard and is supposed to be the next big thing in boxing. We can agree to disagree. Got Em!!
Dude u say some of the funniest shit I ever hear. Lol thanks for the laughs homie. Got Em!!

Please, even GB doubted Garcia. Ruslan is a champ, Matthysse wasn't and still isn't! Bradley remained champ after fighting Ruslan and trust me, GB nor Al Haymon would allow anyone under the roster to fight Ruslan for a gazillion reasons! Garcia would not beat Bradley lets be real here and Ruslan vs Garcia would be beastly! Fuck Al Haymon! with that being said, Bradley gets the winner of this fight, another big stage fight. Mayweather fights Khan, and still remains #1? What I'm trying to say is that Floyds opponents and money will go down while Bradleys will go up. So, who will Floyd fight next? Anyone from GB is like Nolan Ryan pitching in AAA
@CZAR
what part makes you laugh? who has Canelo beat in comparison to who has Bradley beat? Even Floyd said before that a catchweight fighter is not a fighter that's 100%! I understand people are not fans of Bradley at all but when people talk about skilled fighter this, Rigo that, Floyd that, why not Bradley?
I never said Floyd was scared. I never said floyd wouldn't easily beat him . I said exactly what would happen - that because Canelo is a boxer-puncher and doesn't apply pressure his size would be a non factor, Floyd's speed would be a huge advantage and Canelo doesn't have the experience.
I don't know how good Canelo is, he's never beat an elite fighter so who knows with this kid. Maybe he becomes something special, point is Marquez has proven himself as a special fighter. That much is obvious.
