Mike Tyson tweeting about Timothy Bradley

Tyson is 100% right. not much to it.

I think Tyson's point is getting lost in the gauntlet of bitterness and butthurtedness of Bradley's decision over Pacquiao which was almost a year ago. Bradley is his favorite fighter and he's just saying that he wants his favorite fighter to fight smarter and do the things that allowed him to be an undefeated fighter which was fighting a lot smarter than he did against Provodnikov. With or without Pacquiao, Bradley has one of the strongest resumes in the game today. Great post..

I bet Abril fans would be butthurt if Rios fans made threads non stop trying to justify the decision. You know, Abril was holding a lot, he got outworked, etc. But it doesn't happen ever, why do you think? The thing is this thread had nothing to do about pacquiao but the butthurt fans turned it into one. Smh

So even worse, posters are trying to justify a robbery in unrelated threads. You don't see that for Rios Abril, PWill Lara, Cloud Campillo, any other recent one. Nobody cares about Abril (except Cuban posters) but lots care about Rios and he's still taking flack over it. Sergio has plenty of haters, but everyone knows better than to use the Cintron card. But let me get this straight, you don't recognize robberies exist in boxing? IMO only fight that you've named that was a robbery was Pwill vs Lara..That's it..There is a difference from a robbery and a bad decision.. To many times people call close fights or decision that seem off robberies which is annoying and a bit stupid(not saying you are).. I don't even get what makes it worse,nobody but butthurt posters even was talking about the decision..Once the topic is brought up of course people are going to hop in with their two cents..But the fight was close,imo not a robbery at all..Others may say it was a bad decision and people like ya self will scream robbery..But none of these things will change the decision..Bradley beat Pac,and Pac did not rematch him..Point blank period.. Believe me,I'm not bagging on Pac because I've always been a big fan of his as well..But I just look at facts in boxing,Pwill vs Lara was one of the only fights(oh and Cintron Martinez)that I felt was a true robbery in every sense of the word..But nothing I feel will change the fact that Martinez Cintron was a draw and Pwill got the decision over Lara.. So it's not that I don't recognize that robberies happen..But I also recognize the result of a fight..Which is the way of the sport it self..

I don't see Bradley fans continuing to make threads to talk about the decision.. What I do see is Bradley haters and Pac fans in almost any thread with Bradley in the tittle will bring this topic up..Go to the very start of this thread..Did a Bradley fan bring this issue up or did some butthurt Pac fan/Bradley hater bring this topic up.. Oh and to answer ya question,who the fuuck is Abril..Do you believe anyone cares??I thought that fight was closer then most,and did not feel it was a robbery anyway..Although on my cards Abril won the fight..But in reality Rios won,nobody's opinion will change that fact...

Firstly, I didn't say you don't know how to score fights. What I did say was that I found it comical how you questioned my scoring when you seem to be trying to justify that utter farce of a decision. Secondly, he done enough to win two of the last four rounds IMO. He wasn't really active, yet he still managed to outscore Bradley and land the bigger punches. Bradley may have moved more and threw more punches, but it was mostly in vein. Pacquiao showed better defence in that fight than any other in recent memory. He managed to block most of Bradley's attacks with his arms and gloves. Bradley also made Pac mess a ton..Compubox is the real farce here..Lamply tried to use compubox to justify what he saw,played a rd with no sound on his show..Most who saw the rd gave it to Bradley(I was not one of them but you get what I'm saying),the main point here is this..The fight was close,I've never had an issue with anyone saying they felt Pac won the fight..But to say he Blew Bradley out is ridicules..Most pros who watch it back although still feeling Manny won,even said it was closer then they first thought.. IMO fights like this(Pac Bradley)and fights like Judah Matt's Peterson Ortiz Peterson Khan etc etc are not robberies..They are close fights,in which the fighter most wanted to win did not get the decision..A robbery I did not see that fight...

100% agreed. By the way I am a huge Bradley fan and I scored his fight against Pacquiao 8-4 for Pacquiao but there were TONS of close rounds that could have gone either way. Rounds 1 and 2 were strong Bradley rounds and he has a case for winning most of 7-12 on activity. Manny didn't do much in those rounds outside of Ali-style flurries in the last 30 seconds of them. Tim out-threw Manny which is something a lot of people miss when talking about the decision. And btw something to remember is both the Vegas crowd and the HBO team were horribly biased toward Pacquiao and against Bradley. To hear the way they commentated the fight you would think Pacquiao was hitting Bradley with megaton bombs. In exchanges where both fighters landed punches the HBO team would only give credit to Pacquiao's activity. It was one of the most shameful examples of cheerleading from them in recent memory. Forget HBO. You see a rout on press row cards. Nobody was piping HBO into their ears.

Always great to see how butt hurt some of you are about Bradley getting the decision over Pacquiao. I bet Abril fans would be butthurt if Rios fans made threads non stop trying to justify the decision. You know, Abril was holding a lot, he got outworked, etc. But it doesn't happen ever, why do you think?

A fight with Marquez makes a lot of sense for both guys. Marquez wants a fifth world title and frankly there's an argument to be made that he should have Bradley's title two different ways, but instead he was robbed in the third fight against Pacquiao and then Manny was robbed of the title in the Bradley fight instead of keeping it and losing it to Marquez later in the year. I have no idea how the styles clash will turn out in that one, but I think it would be a big mistake to read too much into Bradley's showing against Provodnikov. Bradley is a good infighter when he uses his head movement and footwork to put pressure on his opponents. Marquez is a world-class counterpuncher but I'm not sure how great he'll be with Bradley sitting on his chest the whole night. Either way I think it would be a great fight between two highly skilled fighters. TBH,I don't see Bradley laying inside to much on Marquez..Maybe in the middle rds,but for most of the fight,I expect the game plan is for Bradley to be on the outside turning Marquez and hitting him low and high.. Bradley laying in on Marquez is what Marquez wants tbh,it's also what Prov wanted..Marquez is slow of foot and does not have a great defense..What Marquez does have tho,is a great counter punchers mind..He can alter his punches ever so slightly to make his shots connect..Even if he misses a few times,he will get it down and his opponents usually can't stop his new found punch from landing..This is why Bradley is going to have to keep moving,clinch to push Marquez back then turn Marquez..Keep Marquez the aggressor is Bradley's best shot.. If Bradley try's to go in there with the same Game plan he had vs Prov..His azz is out..You don't mess with a master puncher like Marquez,but I don't expect Bradley to fight that way for some time..I think he got a bit over emotional and big headed(no pun intended)and almost paid the price for it..

You didn't even post a scorecard and your telling me that "giving" Bradley 5 rounds (6 by the way) means I don't know how to score. Watch the fight and answer this question honestly. What did pacquiao do to win any of the last 4 rounds ? Firstly, I didn't say you don't know how to score fights.

I can't remember the rounds I gave to Bradley off the top of my head, but I find it amusing that you can give Bradley 5 rounds and then tell ME that I'm not very good at scoring fights. It's the same story with Mayweather-Cotto. How people thought that was a close fight is beyond me. Off the top of my head, I gave Mayweather 9 rounds, quite possibly even 10, I'm not sure. Quite a few people had it a draw and some even had Cotto winning the fight. Just as ridiculous as anyone that scored the Pacquiao-Bradley fight a draw or a win for Bradley, IMO. As for my username, yeah my favourite current fighter is Pacquiao so there might be a little bias there, but I like to think that when I score a fight that I don't show any favouritism. I know that some people are such huge fans of fighters they support them more than they support the actual sport, which is just ridiculous and definitely not the case with me.

Tim had issues with weight coming into this fight and took off too much too fast, that's why he weighed so much on fight night because he had to drain himself to make the weigh-in weight. He also slept on Ruslan thinking it would be an easy fight and paid the price. I don't think he will be making those kinds of mistakes moving forward. I hope your right,Tim did not fight smart at all..By the time he listened to his corner it was to late..He was hurt and would not recover for the rest of the fight.. I want Bradley Marquez next(and there looks to be a strong chance that this happens)Bradley can't afford to make the same mistakes against a vet like Marquez..Marquez will end Bradley if he does..Bradley needs to get back to fighting smart,he is not this toe to toe warrior..Bradley is a warrior no doubt,but he uses his brains and boxing ability,not brute strength to win fights.. Lucky for Bradley that he has not taken a lot of damage throughout his career..But that fight with Prov has to have taken something from him..
