Timmothy Bradley somewhat reminds me of a younger Hopkins.

    Well prove your logic to me then. Show me where Nate was getting hit prior to the last flurry in round 3.

    And you did watch a stream on the net, didn't you?

      Okay, you are seriously ******ed. Otherwise you would know that you don't walk someone down behind the shoulder. Floyd doesn't even walk people down behind the shoulder.

        Shawn, i don't believe Timmy was using his head "flagrantly". But then again, i'm one of those who has yet to see anyone prove to him that Evander used his head intentionally. I don't think Tim was doing it on purpose but he was definitely initiating it. I believe this is just a case of styles. Tim is used to fighting taller guys than Nate, and vice versa.

          No doubt. I'm just saying, yeah Bradley got dropped twice, but so did Hopkins early in his career.
          I understand. By the way, see the rematch? Mercado got his ass whopped.

            He attempted a pseudo shoulder roll when he was on the ropes, it didn't work then he put his guard up. When did I say he used it when he was trying to walk him down in the round opener?

            The only ****** here is you, nate quit last night and reminded us once again that he is a dim-wit.

            I always knew he wasn't the smartest fighter out there, but I always thought he had heart, but it looks like he is missing that too.

              It's just that he fights with his head down, while Nate was upright. Bunts happen.

                  It might technically be accidental, but when you have the same accident over and over and don't change whats causing the accident, it becomes intentional.

                  In the court of law the term would be gross negligence. Knowing something will cause a problem but not doing anything about it. You can't convince me that Bradley doesn't know what he does with his head is a big factor in his fights.

                    Bradley somewhat reminds me of Holyfield when he throws a four punch combo and then finishes off with a headbutt.

                      I think a better comparison is with Meldrick Taylor. He doesn't have the defensive IQ of Hopkins even though he is hard to hit with a flush punch more times than not.
