This weekend’s welterweight title match between WBO champion Timothy Bradley and Mexico City’s Juan Manuel Marquez appears to be a fascinating stylistic matchup on paper.

In Bradley, we have a determined and athletic champion who is coming off of harrowing give-and-take battle with Ruslan Provodnikov this past March.

At 40 years old, Marquez is ten years Bradley’s senior but he is still enjoying the twilight of his career while coming off of the biggest win of his professional run with a chilling 6th round knockout over Manny Pacquiao last December.

There are several different ways to look at this matchup, whether one would lean towards Bradley’s work rate and persistence or Marquez’s accuracy and superb technique.

While Miguel Cotto may have looked sensational in dispatching former world title challenger Delvin Rodriguez on HBO’s airwaves this past weekend, not everyone was sold on the Puerto Rican star’s performance.

Cotto faced Rodriguez inside of the Amway Center in Orlando, Fl. and he displayed vintage form, rocking his taller foe with crisp and powerful shots before dropping him at the start of the third round and forcing referee Frank Santore Jr. to wave the action off.
