I'm of the opinion that, Tim took much punishment in his last fight. He complained about blurred vision along with slurred speech also he stated "My balance was a little off" With that written, I believe that his last fight was the beginning of the end for Bradley. I like the way Bradley conducts himself both inside and outside of the ring he's a true Champion, but his time has come and gone.
Marquez is pretty much in the same boat as Bradley, except Bradley has seen the traumas of his wars a lot sooner. Although the headaches and the slurred speech aren't noticeable right now the damage is there and it's never going to go away. Juan has handled the punishment a little better from his wars with Manny.
Bradley has fallen into a trap and it's one that I don't think that he's going to be able to get out of and that's trying to satisfy the boxing public. Here's what I mean. Bradley is a BOXER not a puncher. His fight with Manny, in which I thought he lost badly he got the nod from the judges, and then all this criticism came, so Tim wanted to show he was worthy of being the Champ, so in his next fight he showed the world that he could take "IT" and slugged it out with a slugger, causing irreversible damage to body and brain. He did all this to silence the boxing public, but they will never be silenced. "They" always want more.
Bradley just doesn't have that one punch knockout power and his new willingness to sit there and bang it out just might be his downfall against Marquez. Marquez is a brilliant counter puncher and he has new found power (questionable as to how) and if Bradley gets caught up in the crowd this will only play into Marquez's game plan. Look for Marquez to stop the very determined Bradley in less than 9 rounds.
Hard fight to call. The biggest factor will be how much did the Ruslan fight take out of Bradley. If Bradley is healthy and uses his legs, moves and boxes behind his jab than it Bradley should take a comfortable decision. Marquez doesn't like to be the aggressor and he has problems with movers (Floyd, Chris John, Freddie Norwood, etc). If Bradley is shot or tries to open up too much against Marquez then I can see Bradley getting hurt in this fight.
Tough, but gun to my head I say Bradley by 7-5 decision. A draw isn't out of the realm of possibility either.
I think Bradley will win a competitive decision. This is a hard style matchup for Marquez, and it'll be interesting to see how he deals with Timmy boxing and moving.
I don't think he will be successful at walking down/stalking Bradley, it's just not his natural style. Bradley is more than capable of outboxing JMM if the fight plays out like that.
Bradley wont fight the same way he did against Provodnikov. He won that fight and showed a lot of heart, BUT Marquez is not Provodnikov. If he stands in the pocket with Marquez and tries to exchange, it'll be bad news.
I don't see either guy getting stopped, so like I said, I got Timmy by a close decision.
very confusing problem research using search engines like google this can help
If bradley held his own against ruslan and manny while being concusted then he can against jmm . Im going for bradley but jmm has had some tough fights in his career even slick boxers like bradley and can pull out the win but if he does it wont be by ko atleast imo.
