    It is not a very nice thing to say.

    I think Tim has an identity crisis.

    He fights like he has power though.

    He has too much of the warrior spirit in him for his own good. He got caught in a brawl with Prov and he tried to KO Pac in their rematch cause he thought Pac's punch resistance was gone. And he did a little too much brawling against Chaves. The guy has a good jab and good foot speed. He should be boxing from the outside like he did against JMM. That was probably the best performance of his career.

    Bradley is a good boxer but often fights dumb. He gets too caught up with what fans say about him. He needs to learn to fight his fight like he used to a few years ago and he would be a lot better off.

    If Bradley fights like he used to
    He probably never has another loss in his career

    But it won't draw and he's doing this to be a fan fave

    He doesn't talk trash and beat on women like Lindsay lohan.... Err Floyd mayweather does

    So he needs something to get interest

    Spot on.
    The irony of it is that he would most likely have a better chance at getting KOs with this approach. Don't think he has that many fights left in him at top level after all the exploding knees and grotesque facial swelling he has had the last 3 or so years.

    True, but its not really working for him. I thought he fought a real stupid fight against Pac II

    He wants big fights and that means boxing politics, that means impressing fans. Fans are what bring in the money not just winning fights.

    He's trying to fight in a style which pleases the fans because thats the only way to make money in boxing if your name isn't Floyd.

    Ask Rigondeux what it's like to fight the perfect boxing match. Ask Lomacheko how much good boxing brings in fans.

    He beat Chaves inside it was later when he backed off and boxed that Chaves started taking rounds

    People pay to get entertained, so they have more respect for someone who try to win via KO, even though he is feather fisted.
    Thurman did nothing wrong to win the fight against Bundu. he won every round but he didn't press more to get KO, so everyone booed him.
    Personally, I like Bradley much more than slick boxers like Lara, Rigo who prefer to run.
