    He's not slipping, he just fought dumb fights. He stood and traded with Provodnikov, and instead of boxing Pacquiao, he show boated and tried to go for an early KO, resulting in him gassing out.

    Watch Pacquiao at his lower weight classes, then watch him move up to 147. Now look at guys like Gamboa that move up and lose their strength.

    Diaz has been KO'd or stopped 6 times yet Porter couldn't do it with 2 tries.
    Paulie is almost impossible to stop, even Hatton and Khan were not KO's, yet Porter walked right through him, granted Paulie's stance was a liability left him open to Porter's hooks, but still its suspicious.

    Especially now that he's working with Victor Conte.

    He cracked well before he even got in the ring


    After controversially beating Pacquiao by bogus scorecards and receiving all that criticism it got to his head...went out with the worst mentality possible against Provodnikov wanting to prove something to himself and the fans...instead came very close to getting himself brutally TKO'd...that's fight was brutal on Bradley....he made it so much harder for himself than he needed to...it was a shame really....and him coming out feeling sort of vindicated because the casual boxing fans enjoyed the fight and that left Bradley feeling like he gave what the fans wanted in some way...gah.

    You're ******ed if you don't get it. :patsch

    You're countering me like that because I'm right. It's a direct comparison to the point you made about Porter being on PEDs. You said Porter looked like he was on PEDs based on (I'm assuming) his performances and body. Pacquiao is the only person to move up in weight and get stronger and faster, or at least maintain it. So why is Porter on PEDs but Pac isn't?

    I think Paulie was KO'd because he's old, passed his prime.

    Porter more powerful??? Based on what? 3 KOs in his last 10 fights??? Provo has more and against better comp.

    This isn't about Provo...this is Porter & Bradley

    Porter has more power than Bradley for sure...Bradleys biggest weakness is his lack of punching power.

    Ok I thought u were comparing Porter to Provo. Even still...Provo had more Power than Bradley and he lost. Porter is yet to face a top fighter so that could be an issue. Porter has looked downright sh*tty against weaker comp.

    I personally like Tim to win but both are often their own worst enemies in the ring.
