    he's never been liked online. *******s tried to hype him up when he was scheduled to fight Manny, but before that, they were probably his biggest critics(besides khan fans) they hated the guy and used to call him a bum.

    Seems like that Khan "duck" really worked in his favor since he eventually got his shot with Manny and eventually got the W. Even if he would've faced Khan he still would've beaten Mr. Hype Glass. He deserves a fight with Floyd, but of course Floyd would beat him

    Learn how to read "professor". You call yourself "professor" yet you can't even read correctly. Person isn't saying Ward isn't a good fighter, he's making a comparison.

    But why?

    I cant see more than 5% of the ESB forum honestly admitting they lost im Bradleys shoes.

    Its not good for his career, his confidence in future fights, and if you look in his eyes he genuinely thinks he won the fight.

    People need to stop attacking Bradley for this. He was not a judge for the fight.

    In regards to his lack of popularity, its 3 fold.

    1) No KO Power. Not Fan frriendly.
    2) Sloppy kind of Style. Hes not really a slickster so doesnt apeal to the purists, and with a brawling style you need power.
    3) He is a nice, likeable person. But he has no Charisma. Doesnt matter if you are a good or bad guy, you need Charisma. He just doesnt have it.

    I like Tim as a person. But he doesnt have enough traits to make it big time.

    I think he had it 10-2 Bradley. :patsch

    To be honest, I think Tim should have fought Amir Khan when he had the chance. Rather than go for the Pacquiao fight. Fans would have viewed him more favorably.

    'I have to watch the tapes.'

    He knows he didn't win. Took the bogus victory underestimating the media backlash against him. Wasted the opportunity to man up and admit his loss, regardless of decision, and would have had a guaranteed rematch, not to mention the respect he would've garnered. Now he plays hermit in his house behind locked doors and closed drapes, knowing he ****ed up and he sold his integrity for a hollow victory.

    Sad really, he would've had a successful career, nowhere near super stardom but still respectable.

    Round 12

    Tim flurries Manny bac. Another Tim flurry pushed Manny back. Hard right to the body of Manny. Hard jab to body of Manny. Herd left hook to the head of Manny. Tim circling manny. counter left from Tim. Tim jabbing Manny. Counter left and right from Tim coutne right from Tim. Manny walks into a Tim left. Manny trying to press. Tim catches with a right hand. Tim won that last round because Manny again had no work and landed nothing.

    119 - 108 Bradley

    I honestly could not give two shits about Tim, I don't enjoy watching him fight, he's got the personality of a wet rag and he ****s munters.
