    it takes major balls when everything looks bleak to go with reckless abandon/go down in flames where he could seriously get hurt. props to margo and also morales.

    oscar, shane, clottey, cotto, mab are warriors that didn't do it.

    Bradley has been underrated for his entire career. Hes not a special fighter loke Mayweather or Pacquiao, hes not a big puncher, hes not exciting, but hes mentally and physically tough as a fighter can be. He finds a way to win. I was impressed with him the most when he fought Kendall Holt, because he showed a lot about himself. At one point, things were going about as bad as possible, but he found a way to pull it out. I dont think he will beat Manny, but he is a very formidable opponent, and if Manny does win, he will need to earn it every second of every round.

    I have no doubt Bradley is going to put in an honest effort to win. He's not going to go out like Clottey or Mosley. He's got too much pride for that.

    No.

    "I'd rather go out flaming (ie in a blaze), with dignity...", not "I'd rather go out flaming with dignity..."

    Ryan Burton (who wrote the article for BS that the OP quote is taken from) simply didn't punctuate properly.

    This is gonna be a tough fight for Manny, he'll be fiighting a mover that's gonna
    wanna dictate the pace in his own style. Bradley is a macho guy I don't see him
    caving in to anyone. Manny will have a fight every step of the way unless he
    ices him. And judging how Holt clocked him, he'll have to really plant him into
    the ground to keep him there.

    Bradley UD.

    After Shane Mosley ran, I can't take anyone anyone completely at their word about not running.
