    Depends how you define "miss".

    Would I pine for his return night and day if he retired? No, not really. But he's a quality fighter who fights hard regardless of his opponent, and still has a number of good prime years left to him.

    I guess I'd miss him the same way I'd miss Andre Ward. Not an especially big fan of either man, but appreciate their presence in the sport.

    Is Timmy the new Zahir Raheem?

    I'm not a big fan of Bradley and I think Pac beat him but he has my respect and can still be in some great fights. I'd miss him if he retired early and wish more US fighters came to the UK to win a Title like he did. Bradley V Khan would be good down the line somewhere :yep

    He's a talented fighter, of course I'd miss watching him fight.

    I find his style extremely boring to watch and i do think he got a gift decision vs Pac.
    Do i want him to retire? no why would i want any man to lose his job.

    I have the choice to tune in or not so thats my own problem.
    That said would i miss him? no not at all.

    He was either just lucky to be on the receiving end for the backlash towards Pac for the JMM robbery or Arum paid the judges off.

    Shame how he's been vilified and had his previous achievements completely discredited just because 3 judges got it wrong in the Pacquiao fight. If it had happened vs Alexander, for example, very few would give a ****. But since it was Pacquiao, the second coming himself, Bradley's been crucified. It's not like he paid off the judges. The Guy can box, and he seems like a decent kid. Mindless hate.

    No. He hasn't really done anything that would leave a void in his absence. There's still time obviously, but so far, not really.
