    Because people wanted to see Pac fight Crawford. Timmy has more respect than most fighters in boxing and that's a fact.

    People sh*t on certain fighters because avoid the best in their division. They talk and talk and talk, but can't back up their sh*t. Ward deserve everything he got. A fighter on the verge of super st*rdom who self destructed and destroyed his own career.

    No he is race baiting and implying black fighters get less credit because of their race which is not true.

    I have highlighted the bits where he is race baiting. If he said he gets less credit for being humble fair enough I still wouldn't agree because he has had his fair share of credit and opportunities.

    Hopkins has said openly racist things in public on camera and now has a job on HBO. If he was white he would not have gotten away with that.

    You might be right, but I've always thought Bradley and Crawford should get lot more support from black American fight fans than that douchebag Broner which concurs with the OP.

    Not sure what race has to do with anything. People like personalities good or bad

    Tim Bradley doesn't have power. If you don't have power you are a hard sell.

    That's the way it is and always will be.

    Guys without huge, concussive power are more inclined to be talkers in order to promote their brand.

    Which makes it all the more remarkable that Tim's career purses are well over $20 million. Not exactly a hard-luck story, but one of hard work being rewarded.

    The OP mistakes attention for respect. People may pay to see Broner get knocked out, but nobody respects him more than Bradley.

    Dude you keep calling me a race baiter yet I'm one of Kovalevs biggest supporters on this site. I don't see your responses when I talk about how hard Kovalev had to work to get where he's at. How he had to pay his competitor more just to fight. I don't see "iceferg" name no where on that calling me a racist then. Check the records!!!

    I don't know anyone that shows disrespect towards the bravest man at 147 lbs. Bradley is a legend and his record shows. I also suspect he has more money in his bank acount than broner, seeing how he is a smart man and broner is a hood trash.
