    Chavez Sr should have admitted he lost to Pernell...

    Vitali should have admitted he was getting rocked by Chris Byrd instead of QUITTING on his stool and making excuses.:deal

    Ali never quit....nor has Bradley or Floyd...Kirkland..and MANY other fighters that didnt let an injury stop them.

    Vitali wasn't even hurt...his handlers stopped the fight while he was ahead since Byrd was WALKING HIM DOWN AND HURTING HIM.:yep

    Bradley shouldn't have admitted ****.

    Maybe if Pacquiao dominated him for twelve rounds or something. That didn't happen. This wasn't Abril vs. Rios, where the guy who lost had in fact dominated.

    It was close. The right scorecard was about 115-113 Pacquiao, but he was made to work hard to earn the rounds he won (as was Bradley).

    Close, interesting, underrated fight that is sadly overshadowed by the unwashed masses' insistence that it's among the worst decisions ever when in fact it was almost close enough to go either way.

    If a boxer loses 7 close but clear rounds, don't expect him to be like "oh yeah man, he beat me, totally!" They're not keeping a running tally in their heads scoring RBR while in the heat of action. To Bradley it probably felt very close - because it was. Boxers aren't in the habit of apologizing for getting the nod in close bouts.

    Yeah it was a bit of both.

    He ducked Khan when a fight between them would have sorted out who was the top 140lber. He saw a potential Pacquaio fight on the horizon but it was far from a done deal. Khan was calling him out for quite a long time before the Pacquaio fight was agreed and he fought Casamayor at a time when he probably could/should have fought Khan.

    Bradley in general comes across as a nice guy but its his style that contributes to him not being popular with fans imo. He tried to fight a more fan-friendly style vs Provodnikov but it almost backfired. It should be a very interesting fight vs Marquez

    That was back before the Peterson and Garcia fights. Also fighters with little power would struggle against Khan: It's not a given that Bradley would have beaten him. It'll be interesting to see if Alexander will face him next.

    Bradley and his little power beat Peterson...unlike Khan.

    Khan's defense is a siv...and his chin is paper mache....you don't need to be Julian Jackson to hurt him

    Tim has more than enough power to put Khan on his magic carpet of dreams.

    Ducked Khan for Pacquiao.

    :lol:
     
  11. Bradley is too arrogant before fights, gets his ass kicked during fights and leaves the ring as winner after the fights.

    Khan woulda got ass raped by Bradley. Funny how things work out. Bradley still getting big fights while Khan's still getting dropped by C class fighters.
