I never used to be a fan of his but he changed my mind. All the bad press he received after the Pacquiao robbery could have finished a lot of fighters careers. He goes out and fights way out of his natural style simply to win over the fans, the guys got ***** of steel, gotta respect that.
Bradley contributed to a lot of the bad press. He said that he scored it 8-4 to himself. I agree, though. Awful situation. He would have looked stupid if he admitted that he lost, and he was hated for saying he won.
Seems a lovely guy too, one of the nicest in boxing, super humble A feather fister going toe to toe with guys like Provodnikov just to try and win over fans, what a guy (wish he'd tried to wage war with Marquez but oh well cant have it all)
I don't think anyone's career is over after a win over Pac. He seems to draw a lot of dislike as he keep being favoured by the judges when it comes down to scorecards. Same happened with his last fight where he stole a draw against Chaves when he was clearly destroyed.
Lol. I think clearly destroyed is a bit much... I think Chaves is SUPER LUCKY that he got a draw against Bradley... That Julie Lederman card was a bit rediculous. I felt bradley won the fight.
You're like seven years late. http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=528462 Bradley done since paid dues.
I like him but he is overrated at 147. Proved himself at 140 but he sucks at 147. He was easily beat by PAC in the first fight, but bob had the fix in, because he knew ret@rded PAC Stan's would buy that **** again. So ya, Bradley isn't much above 140 and his **** record shows it. Also, him slugging it out when he is feather fisted for the fans is stupid, he deserves the brain damage coming his way for being a sellout.
He won clearly against Chaves. He outboxed him the first half and slugged him the second. Second half, Chaves took a few rounds but nothing to give him the win or draw. 8-4 Bradley, EASY.
In a recent interview, Bradley said he'd have no qualms about moving up in weight to take on Canelo despite a great disparity in size between the two fighters. How can anyone not respect that? Boxing would be in a much better place with more fighters like him.
I've clicked on this thread three times, only the last time did I realize the thread title was 'Gotta gives props to Tim Bradley ' and not 'Cotto gives props to Tim Bradley' That tells you all you need to know about the thread starter. Shamefull.
