    What a shitty way of winning a fight by making the old man chase you around the ring !

    Did anyone see Tim impose himself over Marquez ?
    Did he inflict damage on Marquez' face ?

    Prodnikov ended Tim's career.
    He's now strictly a runner without confidence in his chin.

    It's called having a strategy, which is usually something associated with being a winner. The ego, machismo stuff dont count and doesnt mean anything; only winning does.

    You'd make an awful general or manager of any kind. Not that youd have any say in the matter, but you should stick to being a hater.

    Bradley fought a perfect fight for himself. He needed to be diciplined and not get himself into prolonged exchanges or Marquez would have ate him up alive.

    Thought Marquez edged him anyways, despite Bradley staying dicisplined and not falling into the trap of trading.

    Lots of rounds were diffult to score. Do you give it to Bradley for pumping a good jab and moving well around the ring, or do you give it to Marquez who despite Bradley's good movement, still landed cleaner and harder on a more consistent basis than Bradley???

    However you had it, the fighters dont need to be criticized. They each fought their fight. Bradley his and Marquez his and both implemented their plans very well.

    I think its just a matter of taste here.

    The only bad taste in my mouth was having to hear HBO's predetermined script from the start.
    Their script tonight was that if Bradley was'nt damaged goods form the Provodkin fight, he'd be to slick and to fast for Marquez, and they stuck to that script from the very start.

    That inept **** Harold Lederman who 99% of the time scores aggression and power, this time decides to score for the punch and judy less effective Bradley. Go figure. I'm convinced that clown is both inept and just does'nt like Marquez for some reason.
    I think through 10 rounds he only had Marquez winning one or two rounds, absolutely ridiculous that a clown is HBO's official unofficial judge.

    perhaps Marquez felt at some point that he is really behind points and his usual strategy of countering no longer applies? just saying :think

    the opponent had a strategy too and it seems to me that it worked really good

    how was that Running???

    If one fighter is using the Stick and move skill its his Opponent Job to Cut the Ring Go to the Body and Stop him from moving!!

    This is like saying Karl Malone and John Stockton weren't great and they were Cowards Because they figured out their Pick and Roll Game was on Stoppable!!!

    This is like saying Jordan was a Bum and a Coward because he kept shooting his Fade-away Knowing it was hard to block!!!

    Kareem Was a Cheater because he Mastered the Hook shot put his own touch to it and the Sky hook became unblocked so he cheated...

    make No ****ing Sense!!! Marquez went for the K.O since round 1 and he didn't have a black up plan Simple!!...Timmy Plan was to box him not Brawl and get K.O like Pac..

    age has a lot to do with it, being in this bigger division is the other. JMM is a 40 year old former career featherweight of 50 fights.
    name 1 other fighter in history that was champion at 126 that was fighting for a world title in his late 30's much less 40.
