OK guys, i hear a lot of hatred for Tim Bradley after the robbery and everytime i hear it i get a bit annoyed. Its not his fault he got a gift decision. He fought as hard as he could Vs a current P4P Great, and quite frankly the way he has conducted himself all through the run up to the fight has been like a gent. Its hard not to like him IMO. Anyway.... My question is. IF you were Tim Bradley can you honestly say you would hand the belts back, and admit defeat, or would you do what he is doing and say you won the fight. I would love to say i would give the belts back, but this fight has opened up so many doors i cant see me, or many others doing that, dispite what they say. Please keep to the topic guys and be honest, dont let your bias cloud your vision.
Would I give the belts back? **** no! LOL Tim just made alot of money he got an absurd decision and now he's in line to make tons of money in the re-match... Tim needs to cash out in the re-match because he's not very good... After Pac whoops his ass again he will be open game for alot of fighters.. I see alot of fighters raping him in the future... Kahn would hit that, Floyd would hit that, Vicious would ravage that! Etc...
Nothing-just what he's doing. He feels he won, judges scored a win for him, thats all folks. Is it controversial, yes. Can he recognize that, sure. But guess what? There have been many questionable decisions in the past, there will be many more in the future. Just alot of noise about because of the superstar boxer involved. I would just wait for the rematch, or carry on with another fight. It is what it is.
no one bought tickets before when he was champ "legitimitely". Same difference. He doesnt care. Most boxers get in the game for $. He's gotten to a point where he can and has made more $ then the typical champ. He's going to take the $ and see how much more he can get. He is not at the stage nor will ever be (IMO) of being a boxer fighting for legacy rather then $. Nothing wrong with, just how it is.
What should he do? I mean you have to understand Tim has sought out the best and fought them never made it about money or testing Tim simply did what we as fans say we admire, he has gone to Witters back yard, went to Mich to fight Alexander basically his back yard, walked through hell with two injured feet fighting pacquiao on Mannys terms What do you want him to do?
He should just keep his mouth shut. Don't add fuel to the fire. He is as much a victim of the judges as anyone involved in the sport.
Tell the hating ***s to eat a dick, enjoy my title, look for the big paydays and tell the world "29 have tried, 29 have failed" :yep
Bradley is a victim of Jim "Bang Bang" Lampley and Herald Ledderfag, while I had Pac edging out a CLOSE fight, these 2 cheer-leaded and tried to make it sound like Pac was dominating every second of the fight.
I'd shut my mouth and move on. Lying to the fans about how I thought I won would just get them even more pissed at me.
He should stop trying to convince himself that he won the fight as it sounds more and more desperate each and every time. Take the gift, STFU, get some seriouz rims on da wheelchair and prepare for the rematch.
Shut the **** up about it "I definitely won the fight" The whole world knows you lost, Ok you got a gift, take it an be quite. Don't brag about it.
If you were in the ring with Pacquiao after 12 rounds and heard your name called as the winner you are going to believe you won the fight. If you didn't get knocked out and it was competitive you will believe you won. Pacquiao didn't give the belts back so that is bull**** to ask anyone to give the belts back. In fact Bradley is probably going to be insulted by that because of the connotations it has. It's like he won the belts without permission or stole the belts.
