I just watched the fight and all I can say is WOW. What a ****in fight. I still don't get why bradley gets too much hate. The dude works and fights his ass off everytime. How he made it thru the 2nd round I have no ****ing clue. He was out on his feet and was ****in swinging with a pitbull. My respect for tim just went up even higher because I think he could have easily outboxed ruslan but he chose to brawl becayse he wanted to get the fans on his side again after the pacquiao mess which wass not his fault anyway. BTW I'm a pac fan but I feel that bradley was unfairly treated for something he didn't have anything to do with.
Bradley is a ****in beast you have to kill the guy to beat him. Can't wait to see him back in action!:boxing:
But he did duck amir khan, he even admited it.
quoted for truth.
Its just not a good sign for a forum user when they post something which directly contradicts the truth, and they believe in it whole heartedly even though they know they are wrong. Kinda undermines everything they write from then on.
Believe me there are no American fighters ducking Amir Khan,period. He is beatable by out boxing him ,brings TV $$$, makes exciting career-defining fights and has a glass jaw !!! Peterson beat him. Garcia KTFO'd him. He has been rocked in 7 fights now. There is a line around the corner from 140-154 lbs of fighters state-side wanting a shot at Kid Khan.Bradley would KO Khan !!! Write it down.love watching him fight though as his hands are blazing fast but no head movement and the "English Chin" to boot..must see TV :boxing:

And stop with the 6 round ass on ropes thing. How many fights you see where the ropes are keeping dude up as he takes a beating and ref doesnt call it a knock down. **** Berto lived on the ropes against Ortiz and Ghost and you could say the ropes kept him from going down.
He won the fight. If the ref scorrs it a knockdown in round1. Tim might fight differently in round 2 and might not had took a kd in round 12. We cant just say that caused Ruslan. Things coild have went way differently either way. But Tim won the fight. Period.
1. He ducked Amir Khan. Many people like Jim Lampley, Kellerman & Ellie seckbach acknowledged this too.
2. He takes credit or a fight he lost & so do his retarded ass fans. Pacquiao won the fight.
3. He fights a stinking fight. He's very dirty too. He heabutts a lot.
4. He said he was glad Pacquiao got knocked out. He's a *****.

Lucky for Tim he had judges who watched every minute of the fight as opposed to fans who looked up when they heard crowd noise and assumed Pac was winning the round.
Shots fired!!

He actually thinks he beat Pacquiao

You don't have to have power to win fights, Bradley is undefeated (well except for the loss to Pac) with no power.
The problem was he was hurt early, after that he wasn't the same. The fact he finished the fight and even won it, was amazing.
If he would have boxed and moved, it would have been easier. Now I'm not saying that's easy either but obviously him being hurt really stopped his mobility.
I know you don't have to have power to win fights. I was talking more about Ruslan than Tim. I am saying that Ruslan can't think that he can't be hurt by anybody especially if he fights somebody that actually has power. Tim doesn't have a lot of power but Ruslan looked like he got hit by a 2x4 by the time the fight finished.
lol I think he knows deep down he didn't but doesn't want to look bad for his own fans
it's the same reason why he kept swinging against ruslan..he wanted to impress whatever fans he has and the critics watching. it's that machismo that almost got him ko'ed but earned him some respect...
I tell you what, if Bradley had power he would have put Ruslan on his ass. He better not think he will be able to walk through punches when he fights somebody with some power.

I actually became a Bradley fan Saturday night. He persevered through adversity, hung in there, fought, adjusted mid rounds all while the dude was hurt for most of the fight. Props to him.
I think people in general are can be too cynical when it comes to Fighters.
All of this ^^^ I don't get how people can hate on a fighter who puts it all on the line. I also became a Bradley fan on Saturday. Honestly I wouldn't have been mad with any decision. Win, lose, draw, the fight was that close depending on what you were looking for in scoring.
It's a small circle of Pac fans or bitter trolls that are disappointed that he didn't get knocked out. This forum is filled with these types of people but a lot more people do respect Timothy Bradley after the performance he put on Saturday night.
Bradley fought his way to where he is at. He is a tough outing for any top fighter. He is a solid fighter with a very decent resume. His win against Pac I don't agree with but he did a good account of himself in that fight.
His lack of power is his downfall but his heart and conditioning are second to none.
If boxing was Game of Thrones, then Bradley would be Theon Greyjoy.
Hes got his own skillset and goes about things with spirit, but he will never be forgiven for stabbing his Stark brothers in the back/robbing Manny.
Bit of a farout comment but the Game of Thrones show is starting again in 2 weeks so its the only thing I am thinking of currently. Me too. We love that show at my house. I am looking forward to the great fights coming up but Game of Thrones is always great to me. We have watched every episode 2 or 3 times.
I don't think it was a matter of fighting dumb. I think he was hurt bad in round 1 and never recovered. It's hard to keep a guy like Ruslan off you for 12 rounds and the fact Bradley only went down once is amazing. (well he should have been given a knockdown round 1)
I think it was a matter of styles, Ruslan comes forward with a great chin and inside is a really good fighter.
