    Bradley was a great fighter he can say whatever he wants, he usually talks a lot of sense. He is actually really good on commentary and will point things out as they are developing and usually make accurate predictions of what's coming next.

    He very much does play into the media game though. Pushing the a side and neglecting to actually watch or comment what the b side does.

    That's where the American broadcasts are the worst. They go in with a premade narrative and Stick to it as long as they can. And when the b side gets a knockdown they suddenly switch around and pretend like they have always been impartial...

    How does he maintain the hard work and discipline to be as damn good as he is when he acts like a PMS'ing teenage girl sometimes? It's a weird dichotomy.

    He may throw an actual temper tantrum if he loses.

    He can be annoying, but come on, not wanting to see him fight is a bit of a casual thing to do don't you think? He's one of the top active fighters P4P. I'd argue he's #2 behind Inoue.

    It’s actually not too surprising - insecurity and ego can be powerful motivators.

    Shakur is the type to not accept accountability but looks for a justification. Criticism is a part of life, no way around it. A human being will be critiqued at some point in their life. How you take it and accept it says alot about you

    grandpa did an amazing job teaching shakur the science of boxing, but he should have done a better job on the building of character.

    Shakur jumped straight to 140 with no tune up stood in front of teo and schooled him when alot of people here said teo would knock him out. Shakur is much more skilled and a better fighter than timmy.

    Ryan weighed in at 151/152 on fight night. Haney is probably 170 on fight night. Entirely logical to worry more about size with Haney at 144 than Ryan at 147 given this.

    Also, Ryan makes obvious mistakes. His speed helps cover them, but they're there, and I'm sure Shakur figures (probably rightly so) that he'll be able to see them quick enough, react quick enough, and be quick enough to exploit them. I could see Shakur seeing Ryan as more beatable for him personally.

    Would be a great fight. I'm all in for it. Do it on the weekend of May 5th in the US, let Ryan be the A-side, and it's absolutely massive.
