This content is protected The fight didn't go the way anyone expected. Bradley didn't come out trying to box but actually seemed to try to brawl and fight in Provodnikov's style. It backfired. When he did box he did some amazing things. Excellent stamina, excellent chin, heart. His defense is good when he uses it but in this fight he seemed to have something to prove to fans.
Not gonna lie, I was expecting awkward and boring and got a ****ing war. How in the hell Bradley wasn't to put to sleep is beyond me.
Fight was pretty crazy had me shouting alot. Flipped the channel to ufc... what a ****in bore this is
And Bradley came into the fight out of shape and looking rusty. I was shocked he was fighting like that to be honest. It seems he made it a war on purpose. I think he was trying to showcase for the fans but picked the wrong fighter to have a war with.
Not only that but he's not a typical fighter. He's a natural warrior who would literally fight himself to death, similar to Holyfield. This instinct is good when you're not in against punchers, but Bradley should avoid fighting big punchers for a while after this fight. You can't have too many wars like that.
back and forth without one getting hurt until one round, then it's over.... how exactly the last fight went. that would not beat this fight. Going back and forth, one goes down, gets up put the other down, then it turns the tide a couple times, one gets laid out in a competitive 10 rounder I'll give it to them but its gonna be hard to top this fight. It was perfect, back and forth both guys hurt, up and downs, drama.. Courage, heart, balls to the wall action.
fights like these ruin boxers. i don't know if either guy will be the same after this. btw, i had scored the fight even but i only had the first 10-9. ruslan should have gotten credit for a knockdown.
