    Bradley dominating tonight for the most part, but damn, the undercurrent of this fight though is if Vargas had actual power, Bradley would have been very, very vulnerable tonight. Still though, its one fight at a time and the win is what matters.... (hope Im not talking too soon) but good performance from Tim tonight

    8-1 Bradley

    Vargas looks like s*** Tim might get the stoppage.

    I've always noticed how Jesse fades late in the fight. Bradley has got him beat now.

    The fight is over unless Vargas scores a KO or at least 2 KD's.

    Bradley vs Garcia would be so fun for me... as long as Garcia didn't land one of his no look hook bombs on Bradleys dome, which... is highly possible.

    Vargas has the tools to do so much better if not win. But Bradley's activty, experience, and commitment has taken over. He'll cruise to a wide UD now.

    Round 9

    Bradley is mixing it up to head and body. Vargas is snapping his jab after taking a step back and resetting his footing. Bradley is giving him no respect, marching in and placing his own jab, and sprinkling in body shots. Overhand right from Bradley walking in the front door. High guard from Bradley now, daring Vargas to lead. He does, with a 5 punch straight combo - all caught.

    10-9 Bradley

    88-83 Bradley

    I doubt it. Brads taken huge shots and not gone down. Look at that shot he took from holt. There's no way his ass should've been able to get up. He's got holyfield level heart. That's a fact. Took helacious shots from prod and pac and kept going.

    Agree.

    A little bit more power, a little bit more head movement from the start, or a bigger gas tank would go a long way for him.

    Still, I thought it would be even closer with more action at this point, so credit to Timmeh.

    I don't think it took Tim long to decide Vargas can't hurt him, so it's hard to say what Tim could've done defensively tonight one way or the other against a more offensively gifted fighter.
