    You do not walk on a broken ankle.
    I even doubt he sprained it as it would be swollen.
    Hairline fracture maybe but i even doubt that.

    Probably just a mild twist.

    Pretty tasteless comment these days.

    Round two, as he stepped back and turned, his foot got stuck and was given tremendous pressure.

    You can't break an ankle and move like that

    no he didn't. . . im sure he arived in a wheelchair to make it look better.. .

    but im sorry, ive broke my ankle (both, actually), and you CANNOT put any weight on them at all, much less move around laterally like that. . .

    Im sure he might have experienced a minor sprain, but i doubt he even sprained it. . . probably "over-torqued" it, and it was a little sore. . pretty much all boxers are never 100% - they have some kind of niggles, or nagging injury. . .

    But PLEASE don't think he broke his ankle. . .


    We already know Bradley's a warrior, and he's got mad heart. . . But it will make him look stupid if he tries to exaggerate, or just blatantly make up injuries.

    Correct, honestly if he did break his angle and then tried to move lateral we would see a bone stick out of his skin shortly after.

    This. . .

    We know Bradley's got heart, and I'm sure his ankle was probably a little torqued or something. . . Lol but he really overdid it by showing up to the post-fight presser in a wheelchair; I hope he doesn't say anything else about it. . .

    Lol for some reason this reminds me of one of our dogs, Winston, he would get jealous if he felt our other dogs were getting more attention, and he would sometimes fake a limp, and injury to his paw . . .

    Thats funny my dog Yce will do the same when he wants attention as well.
    Either that or he starts yelping like hes hurt and then once you get close to comfort him he gives himself away by wagging his tail and being all happy again.

    Is Winston by any chance a German Shepard as well?

    F**king broke it? I don't think so. The dude wouldn't have been swiftly moving around the ring in the later rounds if he had broke it.

    We actually do think he had some German Shepard in him (he passed away a few years back) - his muzzle, head, and ears resembled a German Sheperd. He was mostly Australian Shepard, though. . . Very smart dogs as well.


    Haha yep, that's exactly what Winston would do... If we were petting our other dogs, he'd walk up to you limping kind of holding his paw out, kind of whimpering, then after a good few minutes of rubbing and attention, he'd be as happy as could be, and then he'd run off and start playing and rough housing with our other dogs. . . We never let him knew he was figured out, cause we just thought it was so funny.

    Hopefully people can overlook me turning this into a dog discussion forum.

    Sorry to hear that he passed away though.
    Mine is a 5 year old long haired German Shepherd (big too at 120lb)
    Both German and Australian Shepherds are extremely intelligent so thats quite some mix.

    And yeah i dont let him know that i caught on to it either, i like it when hes trying to be clever and as long as it doesn't do any harm id rather encourage it... its part of the fun and personality imho :)
