First time i saw this kid was against Junior Witter. I only sat up and took note as i was a fan of Witter during the early 2000's and Bradley had an unbeaten record and the kid had great conditioning. Since then he's gone on to win a number of boring decision. Been difficult to negociate with. And yet he commands top dollar? Personally i think he's a boring fighter with a boring style that just doesn't make for fan friendly viewing. I'm sure he got in the region of $5m for last night. Personally i just can't see why? :think
Well this wasn't fixed? eh? 2 fighters who are promoted by Bob Arum. He will make millions from a rematch where by Manny will batter Bradley. This result was all ways going to happen. Did Bradley do anything better than Marquez? I think not. BTW I'm neither a Manny or Bradley fan. sick of this type of corruption in my sport
Marquez beat Pacman more clearly and was shafted. However whilst this was much closer. Bradley still won clearly for me by 7-5 ROUNDS 115-113.
No. He was a boring fighter in my opinion prior to the Pac fight and commanded big money. As i said i don't see any value for money as a fan when he fights.
He commanded decent money because HBO and his manager wanted to tie him in contracts for big unification fights.
Don't see why. He's hardly a TV fighter. Oh well he done well out of it. If Pac had any sense he'd **** Arum off and Co-Promote Pac/May with Floyd. They just don't need Arum in the picture at all. And bollocks to a Bradley rematch.
For me Bradley won a narrow decision. A lot of close rounds but all you need to do is win enough rounds. I think people get conditioned by what they expect to see rather than what actually happens. Pacman's technical deficiencies were exposed again. Speed and power is not everything. skills and ringcraft are not to be underestimated.
I'm with you, didn't really have any fans, but he worked his way into a good position in the division, waited out his contract for a Pacquiao fight and it worked.
Didn't see that all. I saw a clear UD for Pac who's body of work was easily superior. Even if you look at the stats alone Pac was a clear winner. Bradley was repeatedly strafed with Mannys straight left and had no answer for it. He was hurt and staggered numerous times. I just don't see how anyone can score that as a win for Bradley when he was negative and did little to try and win the fight other than attempting to stay honest with Pac and paying for it. As for skills and ring craft i certainly didn't see any of that from Tim.
