    Only in the first half and he nearly lost because of it. Bradley boxed after the first few rounds.

    Was going to say Canelo Golovkin 2 but Isal beat me to it.

    Maybe some other considerations

    - Williams vs Margarito
    - Cotto vs Torres
    - Ike vs Tua
    - Golovkin vs Stevens
    - Trinidad vs Mayorga
    - Holyfield vs Tyson
    - Winky vs Trinidad

    Sort of true. But my point is, Timbo came into the ring that night with a different mindset. He could've easily boxed from the outside and get a clear UD. But he felt the need to prove to the world that he wasn't a "fraud". That tells you something about the character of the guy. He said he pissed pure blood that night. Literally. He gave a piece of himself to the ring that night to earn respect when he didn't have too and that is the epitome of a warrior to me.

    Mayweather came forward and traded punches with Mcgregor and knocked him out.

    Apparently Joel Diaz said that his speech was slurred too after that fight

    Mayweather standing with Mosley after being rocked, I really expected him to move and potshot afterwards

    Great fight, one of my favorite body shots and two underrated fighters.
    And yes sir, it is a picture of Chuck Wiggins.
