I think Bradley is one hell of a fighter. His last few fights were great. He shut up JMM quickly and with ease IMO:yep The fight with the Russian was no doubt fight of the year. :smoke
Even after looking sharp on ShoBox a few times and beating Miguel Vazquez, he was overlooked and marginalized where most in his position would have been generating murmurs of excitement and being thrown into fantasy h2h match-ups. Instead, most on this board including the most respected members fully expected Bradley to lose - even get dominated by - Junior Witter. www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=63735 Before he got that shot, Bradley was supposed to have met the shot husk of Jose Luis Castillo in an eliminator (for the right to challenge Witter) and even there, public opinion was against him. People were already looking ahead to Witter vs. Castillo as though it were a foregone conclusion, or viewing it as 50-50 and hesitant to pick Bradley outright to win.

he aint slick enough and he aint got that power. Broner would knock his ass out like Provo almost did
Broner could very well drop him on his ass but you can bet yours that Bradley would get up and put the hustle on Broner and make him work harder than he ever wanted to in his life. (for Bradley, "hard work is easy work", to paraphrase Broner's guru - to whose ideals and work ethic Bradley is a closer adherent than Broner :good)
Plus Bradley is not one to complain, I swear AB was yelling his cell number to the ref half the fight, and he is all business inside the ring.:yep Bradley was beaten badly by the Russian in a few rounds and stormed onward in that fight. AB could not withstand that type of pressure.:| :smoke
So the likes of Manny Pacquiao, Juan Manuel Marquez and Ruslan Provodnikov can't knock Bradley out but Broner can? Seems legit :-(
