Bradley looked terrible tonight

Diaz isn't the problem. Diaz is always yelling at him to box and use his jab

 

If any one fight "RUINED HIM," then it is clearly the first Pacquiao fight.

-Ate some big punches over the course of 12 rounds.

-Tore up his feet with injury.

-Mentally shamed with the fans' response to the scores (claimed to have considered suicide from death threats and fan mail).

-Inactive for a while to follow and got very out of shape in that time (I forget what he said he was at before entering camp for Provodnikov but I think he or his trainer said that he was up to 200+).

I think people are just underestimating the mileage Bradley has on him against such quality opponents in the action-packed-manner Bradley fights combined with his no longer youthful age and the move up in weight from 140 to 147.

 

Timothy "the gift" Bradley.

 

but that was the problem in this fight....if diaz was paying attention he would have noticed that bradley was having a lot more success brawling with chavez on the inside. and not geting busted up as much as when the fight was at a distance...chavez is a sharpshooter from the outside and bradley had a bad swelling that chavez took advantage of..sometimes a trainer has to think outside the box...observe, think, use their ****ytical mind. find the right strategy for that particular fight and that particular opponent...even if it goes against what might seem intuitively correct. not just repeat what "sounds"right.

 

idon't think bradley looked bad at all....showed speed, aggression, good combination punching...he put chavez in his place...the problem really was the headbutts that caused bradley's face to swell up something terrible...it had to have affected him even though he said otherwise. didn't help that he also stuck with a less effective strategy down the stretch.
