    Totally Agreed
    I get impression a lot of people have never watched Holt and never watched the fight. Tim jumped in recklessly and was hit hard and got up against a hard puncher and then won round after round. Then got buzzed late and came through it. He's tough and smart. He can quickly adapt. He's a true modern day champion.

    No surprise there. Khan ducking again. Kats, Murray, Thaxton, Prescott rematch, bradley, campbell, diaz, etc. Too many to mention. Lil *****.

    What I like Bradley is that he looks fairly nondescript and he goes about his way in a tidy, workmanlike manner. He does what he needs to do, nothing particularly brilliantly, but a lot of things very well. He has a massive head, if his chin holds up and he resists a stupid move up in weight (it's clear to see he's a tank at the weight and his lack of power will only hamper him in any move up. It's plain to see he should stay at 140, or is he deffo fighting Abregu?) he can pretty much dominate 140 IMO. He has the tools.

    He is fighting Abregu. I hope he knows his strengths and knows 147 aint for him. Have the fight but get back down to 140 and dominate. As you say he has all the tools and a very underrated trainer in Diaz.

    On paper, Abregu looks handy. Can't see Bradley being put in a risky fight with a relative unknown, he'll hopefully be a Welterweight Prescott :lol: :good Difference being Timmy has a chin.

    If he handles 147 okay I'd be happy for him to make a **** out of Berto before coming back down to challenge Alexander.

    :yep Yep The Fraud vs The Real Deal

    Can't stand Berto...talks such a good fight...yet never lives up to his talk.

    Talked about taking Quintana's manhood and pride yet soon as Quintana landed a punch he crying to ref about butt's and elbows. :fire

    Yeah.... he's definitely a KO waiting to happen.

    There's just something not right with him, just looks so clunky :think

    If Hatton did come back it would be a fight I wouldn't mind seeing him in - footwork being the key :yep

    I've noticed as well. It's a ****ing disgrace!! And Marquez is up for it and agrees because he's a ****ing warrior and will fight anyone. Luckily Nacho Beristain is on to them and if he has anything to do with it JMM will not be fighting at 140. Nacho knows that JMM is only effective up to 135 as he loses too much speed and size as he moves up. Hopefully Nacho tells them to **** off.

    I don't know, a bit worried about that fight. He's so well suited to 140 why take a risk against a lad thats so much bigger than him, could derail him just as his career is looking good.

    I've only seen a few clips of yer man from YouTube, he looks sloppy alright, but he's got a decent punch. If Bradley got caught he might struggle to get back into the fight.
