    The video is garbage, plain and simple Tazo.

    The author of the video gives shows how Bradley has made improvements, but what improvements are they really when its being accomplished against a fighter like Rios who had a terrible training camp going in and is a stationary target without a defense even on his best night.


    LOL, the author of the video is comparing and contrasting how Bradley looks vs Pacquiao to now with Atlas against Rios. :rofl:rofl


    Rios is stationary while Pacquiao is fast both of hand and foot speed and is repeatedly on the pivot which throws Bradley off of his offensive game.
    With or without Atlas, theres a monumental difference in trying to execute a gameplan vs Pacquiao as apposed to Rios.

    It's not the fact he beat Rios, but HOW he did it. Not sure why people struggle so much to understand that. Changes in form can be observed regardless of opponent.

    Again, confusing the value of a performance with the value of a win.

    Diego Chaves and Jessie Vargas are roughly the same level as Brandon Rios. Yet just like with Pacquiao, his flaws were there. Standing right in front of his opponent and dropping his jab, throwing winging punches off balance, and having poor technique on the inside. Rios is the best inside fighter of those 3 depicted and Bradley clearly made adjustments there.

    Boggles my mind when people refuse to see a fighter working on things just because their opponent isn't elite.

    Atlas is a con man. Timmy is what he is because of his own talent and his old trainer.

    Well yes, Atlas certainly was at Bradley's ear screaming instruction.
    However, my assertion is that its much easier to implement those instructions against a walking zombie.
    When Bradley fights Pacquiao again, there you will see Bradley panic again in the face of the blur of punches coming at him, and he'll go right back to his winging routine.

    The 3rd fight will be repeats of the first two. Great defense by Bradley, but offensively unable to mount any type of an effective offense in the face of speed and quickness greater than his.

    "No more stupid swinging wild...Teddy ain't going for that winging, putting your head down and winging, no more of that."

    That's fair, it's definitely easier against a limited fighter like Rios (though I think he was far from a walking Zombie).

    Bumping this on the eve of fight night. Let's see if Bradley can implement his ring generalship on Pacquiao. Also curious to see how Pac looks.

    Site of ours, right? I'd be mad if they are still down by the time of this fight. Hell, afternoon down time is still bad considering all the British fights happening tomorrow. :-(

    Good video. I could see Bradley possibly out boxing Pacquiao in spots and winning a close decision. 116-112 or 115-113. Depends how much speed Pac has left and his conditioning, shoulder etc. He hasn't been out of the ring that long so he should be fine. Not like the Floyd fight was some bloody war! :rofl 10 months off wont hurt him. Actually at this stage it may have done him good.:yep

    One has to question what is really going on, or not going on, in the lives of individuals who waste their time making pointless videos like this. More unsettling and haunting is to attempt delving into their psyche and depraved, obsessive minds. One can only envision an abyss so devoid of anything resembling humanity that even the construct which allows us to exist must be extinguished within it's realm.

    The vacuum of space and time snuffed out, all light, all frequencies providing them their splendor and glory absent. Only the deafening silence and nothingness that is left once a star has committed the sin of ages and devolved into a celestial suicide, the vacancy left in the aftermath of a supernova, could be used as an an.alogy for these lost souls wandering the interwebz searching for meaning.

    Perhaps the vacancy and empty space between a female's legs could restore some semblance of a human being to these, these...monsters...passing themselves off as prophets and sages in a post modern era. Even that time designation is a paradox incapable of fruition. How can one be past the modern era unless the space time relationship has been corrupted?

    That's right, let it sink in slowly. None of this is real, none of us are real. Every entity having the same sensory experience as me right now of being subjected to Bogo's depraved offering is in fact suffering their deserved plight in purgatory. May you serve out your sentences with honor and reach existence, something, anything again before eternity ceases. Another paradox, another hint that nothing is what it seems. Respect the horror inflicted on your souls by Bogo and fear what is coming.

    P.S. Will watch later.

    Whatever you say about Atlas, he offers a lot more in the corner between rounds than Roach.

    Roach keeps it shorter most of the time. Atlas is more of a motivator, and a disciplinarian.
