1. I had the fight a draw. I scored the first round 10-9 Provodinkov. 2. It was a very compitive fight. Either Bradley or Provodinkov deserved to have his hand raised. 3. A lot of boxers say they'd die in the ring. Bradley might be the only one that I belive acatuly would. 4. Despite the above opinion. I still think there is a sizable gap between Bradley and Mayweather/Marquez 5. Bradley/Marquez should be the fight that Top Rank puts the most effort into making. 6. Despite all the toe to toe action. Bradley won because he got on his toes and boxed. 7. Roach found his replacement for Pacquiao in Provodinkov. 8. Provodinkov should fight the loser of Rios/Alvarado II (The winner should get Pacquiao) I was trying to go for 12 thoughts, but I think 8 is enough.
Suprised to hear Bradely had put on 40lbs after the Pacquiao fight, definetly could've been a factor here.
