    That Bradley was in a wheelchair with no ice or wraps on his ankle... Total joke.

    Part of treatment with ice is that you have sustained periods without ice. It's not unlikely that he would have ice off the joint for extended periods of times. Doctors have also come back and confirmed the fracture and severe sprain + swelling - so?

    There are some pictures of his feet all jacked up. They have sports trainers n docs that know what they are doing, if his feet weren't wrapped must have been a reason.

    I think it was even more strange that during the later rounds his trainer didnt say you need to go for broke and go out on your shield. I was in a loud convention hall @ mirage so maybe i didnt hear. Any one saw this fight in a more quiet place and heard anything like this?

    he asked him if he wanted to quit, Bradley complained about his feet. His trainer told him to suck it up and fight, his trainer did an great job motivating Bradley to stay in there.

    My guess is that he knew if he went the distance he would get the fight. Even while watching 24/7 he mentioned about conditioning and going 12 rounds, and never really beating him. Also how he mentioned Nov 11th as the rematch date, that didn't make a lot of sense either.

    During his post fight interview he has the "title" over his shoulder and he says that he needs to watch the fight and score it to see if he won. That's not quite word-for-word,(youtube it) but what champ feels that way. Moorer on 4/22/94 won a controversial decision over Holyfield, and you could tell he felt he won the fight. It was close, there have been several other close fights, but for someone to say that means "I lost, but I'm not going to admit it, and I really do not deserve this title"

    Yes very odd. Must keep up an image of being super strong during a fixed fiasco.

    He won't be fighting November 11th based on a foot fracture (six weeks to heal before he can do road work) and severe sprain (two to four weeks to heal)
