    Brilliant fight. Both guy deserve a lot of praise and a long rest. Thought Bradley was a little lucky to get the nod but I think I'm in the minority here and he showed a champs heart so I can't begrudge him at all.

    EDIT: Scored the 1st and 2nd 10-8. But the judges did not. How did everyone else score them?

    Yeah, clearly:roll:
     
  3. Do you guys never go out on the pull?

    There is no point showing fights at a time when most people living a life are leaving nightclubs and about to enter the pie.

    No doubt between 7pm and 11 pm, there was no live boxing on Boxnation again and the 100th showing of Klitschko v Charr is likely to result in even more subscribers leaving.

    Boxnation is doooooooooooooooooooooomed

    Doooooomed I say

    :lol::lol::lol:

    What a fight..... Bradley clearly wanted to prove the doubters wrong. He has defiantly taken those "boring & negative" fighter comments to heart.

    He is easily one of the most dedicated fighters out there, I imagine Hes quite pissed off at the lack of respect he gets.

    Earned some with that performance mind you

    I scored the overall fight 115-112

    I didn't score 10-8's for any round other than the 12th (with the official knockdown) although could see why the 1st two could have gone that way. I tend to be quite conservative when scoring, rarely draw rounds and only if absolutely without doubt do I score a 10-8 without an (official) knockdown.

    I thought that Bradley looked good when sticking to what he does best. When on his toes , scoring quick punches he looked in control but when fighting he (I think) was lucky to get away with it. I think there are other fighters that would have finished the job off when they had the chance.

    The Serb looked tough, and reckon he has done enough to get himself in the mix and make some good money now.

    Cracking fight & highly entertaining!

    Has been a good couple of weeks for Boxnation's overseas events - Last week Hopkins and now this with Mayweather and many others yet to come.

    So many talented Eastern Euro fighters like Ruslan dont understand that winning fights in America is sadly about quantity and not quality of punches.

    They are obsessed with landing big shots and Ruslan did that all night long. I ruled it a knockdown in round 1, he had Bradley wobbled numerous times then dropped him in the last round. He overwhelmed bradley and kept pushing him back in exchanges. If he had just been more persistent behind the jab, he would have easily won the fight. But he wasn't and Bradley had a home advantage which resulted in a decision win. Its a shame.

    I don't know how you couldn't score the 2nd round 10-8, TBH. The 1st is more debatable, although if Bradley didn't flop around after going down then I don't think as many people would've considered it a knockdown.

    113-113 on my card. Great fight.

    Proud of both men. That type of fight is what keeps this sport healthy. Loving the fact i go on FB and Twitter and see people mentioning it.

    Bradley's been my boy since the jump, That's one guy you want in a war with you.

    Damn missed this fight i was still up at the early hours though in my bed watching vids of to catch a predator on my phone half stoned but was to tired to get up and watch the fight partly because ive never at all liked Bradley in the ring but sounds like he proved me wrong last night well done Desert Storm.
