    I first took notice to Bradley after he beat Peterson. Then after his fights with Nate Campbell, Alexander and the first dude he fought at 147 (cant remember his name) , I realized Bradley is a high conditioned athlete and has great drive and he was in my top 10. While I still feel that way, something changed in the lead up to the Pac fight.

    When they were all at the table (Him and Diaz ... Pac and Roach) talking to Max, I looked into his eyes a few times and I instantly thought this guy might be slightly off. Now every professional fighter has to be a little off to fight for a living, but I got a sense he was more off than that. Then at the weigh in staredown with Pac, I saw the look again. I could be reaching here, but something don't seem right with that dude.

    Anyway fast forward to the faceoff with him and JMM, and there goes the look again. Next time you look at the faceoff with JMM, listen as he describes how he says if Marquez doesn't knock him out, he will win. He sounds like he would be just as happy getting knocked out, as he would winning. I cant put my finger on it, but this dude has some screws missing. Nevertheless, I am a fan and I am looking forward to a great fight next month.

    Thoughts?

    are you saying perhaps he is a black mexican warrior?

    Dont think there is anything off maybe except him being highly competitve. In the face off kellerman asks him about some remarks his dad made. Bradley told keller man "I told my dad , this is the monster you created" reffering to his last performance where he was badley stunnded through the fight,tho managed to finish & win the fight. Maybe as a kid his dad scared him to believe in the theroy " if you're 2nd you are last" type of thing. With Joel Diaz as his trainer I have confidence that if things were to get to shakey that he would save Bradely though. He has a good man in his corner.

    Maybe, lol ... Good one!

    Nah, like I said I might be looking into it. I study psychology and am a good read on body languauge. He just seems like he's somewhere else a lot of times.

    He never struck me as off until the Pacquiao fight. Since that I think he's seemed to have his whole view of himself and the sport completely FUBAR'd. I don't think he's right at all now.

    I always got the impression that Bradley has a great head on his shoulders... Who really knows.

    He is a throwback kind of character. I honestly believe everything he says is 100% honest

    He'll gladly get into a brawl.:bbb:!:

    I think he let all his anger out on Provo from the disrespect he received after the Pac fight.

    Well see a smarter fight from Bradley.

    WAR BRADLEY!
