    You, sir, need to watch the Bradley/Provodnikov fight.

    The last seven 7 seconds wouldn't have made a difference. If anyone doubts this, go watch the Provo fight immediately.

    There was no chance Bradley was getting stopped there, he was caught but reacted coherently enough, had all his wits about him.

    I don't think a fight Bradley was hospitalized after and said he literally "píssed blood" is the best answer to that.

    Pac rocked him hard a couple times in their rematch and he was dazed but still came swinging.

    There is a 99.9% chance bradley doesn't get stopped if the ref didn't mess up. They were clinched with 7 seconds to go. Ref was going to break it up. That would have left vargas with maybe 3-4 seconds to knock bradley out cold.

    If and that is a BIG IF vargas would have even knocked him down all tim would have had to do was stand up and he still would have won.


    And as someone else stated all bradley had to do was take a knee and he wins.


    Sucks how it ended because it gives vargas some claim like he could have won when he got manhandled the entire fight by Bradley other than 1 punch.

    Vargas was not about to finish Bradley.

    Although we will never know FOR SURE. I think Bradley had it in the bag. At the 10 second warning, ref took about 1 second to jump in. That means at the time of the premature stopping of the bout, Vargas had 9 seconds to KO Bradley. This means that he would have to hit bradley so good that he wouldn't be able to beat a 10 count. And thats a 10 count that you would just need to get to your feet for, no fighting afterwords. If that punch came 20 seconds sooner I think I would be really mad and feel vargas was robbed. I don't really think Vargas was going to spark bradley out cold in those 9 seconds.

    Vargas hit Bradley with the hardest Hail Mary punch he has ever thrown in his life flush on the chin, a punch Timmeh never saw coming and still couldn't even drop him. I highly doubt he would have stopped Bradley with even a full round left much less a few seconds.

    Regardless of the internal damage, Bradley unquestionably has the ironest of iron chins.

    The most exciting part of the fight was the last 30 seconds.

    Tells you all you need to know about how that fight went.













































































































































































































    It was garbage

    better not be a rematch. vargas was robbed of a 5% possibility of a knockdown round. thats about it.
    TB had no problems blocking any of incoming shots after the shot landed.
