    The most undeserved hype for a fighter I've seen in years.

    Prior to last night, nobody would pick Provo over Broner.
     
  3. Broner is not gonna get beat. Nobody has the ability other than Mayweather, and they won't fight.

    Idk if any of y'all noticed, but Ruslan had punched himself out by the 3rd. There were at least 2 times in the fight Ruslan had nothing in him cuz he punched himself out and Bradley hadn't noticed that until the last 15-20 seconds then Bradley found out Ruslan wasn't punching back and was in survival mode. Ruslan spends so much energy in ALL of his punches he's definitely a pure puncher and he could be outboxed. Perhaps even stopped, but because Timmy was willing to go toe to toe and brawl with him and couldn't avoid Ruslan's right this fight was made harder for Timmeh than it had to be. I think Bradley just wanted to put on a show for the people and vent his frustration and use his heart instead of his brain and show the world that he's all heart. Not the strongest, fastest, biggest puncher, but tho he could box well he wanted to show the world what he's all about. I don't think Broner stops or beats Bradley Bradley would outwork him and go to work on Broner in another classic. Timmy has an underrated jab. Fight won't happen tho with Top Rank-Golden Boy bumpin heads, but if one day they do decide to work together boxing will have a new golden age. Broner might decision Ruslan, but not Timmeh who is king of stamina.

    Pretty good assessment . . . I give Broner a shot against tim but it way to early to call it, we have no idea how Broner will look at 147

    This place is hilarious! Bradley fought like absolute ****, don't kid yourselves Provo is ESPN 2 level and it wasn't a case of him being agood fighter it was a case of Bradley fighting worse than he EVER has. He's another Alvarado- a C level dude. remember watching fellow C level Herrera beat him clearly on Friday Night Fights? selective memory is funny. Demarco is a better fighter tha Provo as is Paulie. Paulie would put a schooling on that boy.

    He's no Alvarado. Alvarado is a top five fighter at 140.

    Dude.... Royal.... Herrera did NOT beat him clearly. And Prov would beat Paulie if the fight was judged fair.

    As for the Herrera fight being 'clear'.

    Even if you felt Herrera won, it was so controversial at ringside (majority of ringside observers/press scored it for Ruslan) and with the people that actually watched it, that you saying it was clear is simply disingenuous.

    That fight was anything but clear. Plennnnty of people scored that for Ruslan.

    In fact, the announcers for espn had the fight clearly for Ruslan


    I have no idea where this notion that Ruslan lost that fight clearly has come from. Its not about who you thought won, its that the fight was controversial to say the least.

    By definition, it is not clear.


    I do agree that Bradley made Ruslan look better then he is by fighting the worst he has ever fought.

    But Prov is a good fighter regardless.

    Broner will not try to prove he can take shot from this guy, he dominates him wins every single round probably gets a late stoppage here but if Ruslan finds a home for that looping shot Broner will get stopped, I dont see it though Broner wide UD
