bradley was no. 3 p4p, "unbeaten", was on top of his game after beating pac's nemesis jmm... your thoughs???
you mean like how he got dropped by holt and came back to win that fight.sure bradley lets his emotions get the best of him and that's why he fights stupid but he is not smoke and mirrors.he's proven.
Bradley isn't a very smart fighter you say?, He has great Ring I.Q ... Bradley fought a smart fight against JMM, Bradley took a knee in the 12th round against Providnikov instead of getting a possible KO/TKO loss and Bradley knew that he outboxed Provodnikov in the 2nd half of the fight. Bradley was Top 3 p4p, Undefeated Champion and defeated JMM when Pacquiao fought him in their rematch. :deal
Really dumb comment... The only think that holds Bradley back is his size. At 5'6" he needs to physically ELITE like Pacquiao to be able to compete at the top of the welterweight division. He's moderately fast, doesn't have any power, and, although more skillful than the average fighter, isn't the smartest fighter in the world. But he's shown in fights against bigger, taller, more physically gifted fighters that he can compete. If he were 5'10" with his exact same skills and physical ability, he would have murdered Pac. He could have done what Algieri couldn't.
One of the few Pacquiao victories where you dont need an asterix next to it. No catchweights, no waiting til the guys shot to ****. His second best clear win after Barrera 1 (even if Tim did have a complete mindfart)
Bradley was P4P #3, #2 WW, prime/peak, undefeated, slick and black when pac beat him. He's coming off beating Marquez in his most enhanced form coming from a knockout of pac himself.
Well if that's the case, Pac is 1-1 against Bradley.. You can't come back and say Pac won the first fight now, which takes some off that win...
Tim Bradley was at his peak at 140, culminating with when he unified against Devon Alexander. All of the worst performances of his career have been at 147 (Abregu, Provodnikov, Pacquiao W, Pacquiao L).
He still beat a p4p, undefeated, peak/prime, slick and black bradley as we all know. I'm just going by the corrupt judges decision.
:nonobradley's best win is marquez which was at 147 so bradley was still at his peak.just because he couldn't beat Pacquiao mean he was past prime or shot.thats the excuse the haters try to use to discredit pac's wins over bradley.
lol at this post. he beat marquez in his most enhanced form decisively 8-4 (9-3 on some cards) without needing to cheat him on the scales like floyd did. his performance against pac was decent. it's just that his opponent is pacquiao himself. if his opponent is let's say someone like maindana, guerrero or ortiz, he would absolutely schooled them.
The Marquez victory is the best of his career. I simply said that all of his worst performances are each of his other fights at WW other than Marquez. I think that statement is easily agreeable.
