Did you guise gain respect for bradley or still the same?

Gutsy performance from Tim, he literally tried to KO Manny. His footwork and head movement were a sight to behold. Nothing but respect from me.. he is an A-Class fighter. Manny and Floyd are just anomalies, the S-Class guys.

I think bradleys clowning is being bashed a bit too much, when he was doing it sometimes it was effective, and was able to hit manny with counters

Not after all his clowning in the ring.

Yes and no. I admired his guts. Frowned on his emotional approach. Bradley showed his characteristic balls but he also showed his characteristic foolishness. Instead of fighting a more calculated tactical fight he let his fear of Pacquiao get the better of him and he fought on adrenaline. This enabled him to show well and do things that would shock and impress the audience but it would also leave him vulnerable less than halfway into the contest. Once that adrenaline wore off he was finished. Pacquiao had him beat before he ever stepped in the ring IMO. Sure looks that way. Bradley's talk was so uncharacteristic, and then he completely fell apart during the fight. He was trying to convince himself he was good enough, that he won that first fight and could do it again.

Bradley's biggest problem is he has too much heart. When he get's tagged his natural instinct is to get reckless and trade. This almost cost him in the Ruslan fight but Ruslan didn't have the experience to capitalize on Bradley's mistakes. Pac made Tim pay last night and showed (2nd time) again that the two are in two different leagues when it comes to who is the better fighter. Timothy Bradley neeeds to curtailt hat recklessness because if he gets in to a few more wars like he did against Ruslan Provodnikov, he will be slurring his speech for the rest of his life. He seems like a good guy and i wouldn't want to see that happen to him.

It did kind of feel like he was just happy he got the pay day during the post fight. OR, he was glad that the right guy won this time, so he can get that robbery off his back. I bet a huge weight is lifted off his back now. I think there is a big relief on Timothy Bradley for all the pressure to be off. Now there is no hate and death threats, etc.......etc........ in regard to the first fight. It's not his fault the judges from the first fight are idiots, Timothy didn't write the scorecards. If Timothy Bradley goes out there after the first fight and says "yeah the judges robbed Manny and gave me the decision" or words to that effect he basically screws himself out of millions of dollars in the rematch. Also a fighters view and perception of the fight they're actually in is much different than the view and perception of other people watching it. I thought he lost the first fight but I also think Timothy Bradley gave a good showing of himself in the first fight against Manny Pacquiao. I think he also gave a good showing last night although I didn't think this fight was as close as the first one.

His behavior after the fight helped, but I lost respect. He talked all that insecure garbage leading up to the fight, and then had a meltdown in the ring. I think the pre fight talk was just to pump himself up because he may have had some doubts after that first fight. I like Timothy Bradley, its not his fault the judges gifted him the first fight. The guy comes to fight and he is an overall good person, you have to respect that.

Why would there be a third fight if the numbers declined?There will 100 percent be a 3rd fight...Top rank has no one else period....

Always had my respect but it increased after the fight. After the fight the reporters wanted to ask him about his calf injury and he said he doesnt wanna talk about it because he didnt want to take anything away from Manny's victory

It's gonna be a hard sell for Bradley from now on. If the PPV #s hit over 700k, obviously 3rd fight's next. If not, Bradley might not even be on PPV anymore. Why would there be a third fight if the numbers declined?

Was a fan after Provo fight, looking forward to how he bounces back

I really like Bradley. He'll fight anyone and that coming from a guy who KNOWS he ain't the biggest punchers says a lot. One of the biggest hearts in boxing as far as I'm concerned. I'll pay to see him and Pac fight but won't buy another Mayweather fight again and I like Mayweather. The best boxer/fighter out there. He just buys into the bull**** of this world too much. Oh well, we all got to figure that out for ourselves.

i always respected tim because he would get the job done by any means and there is no quitting in him but he now fights with a chip on his shoulder and i dont respect his boxing abilities as much as i used to. he fought really stupid. but as a man i still have massive respect for him Though maybe that legit 'L' will help him get his head right again.

They never gave a damn about Bradley,they were just pissed because he won against Manny,just like they sit here not and sh1t on Jmm cause he knocked Manny out...now they will overhype Bradley not because they like him but to simply try to hype Manny....and to make it worst you dont have to argue with them...just bump their old posts I agree with that.

except for the calf excuse again, he doing ok with his first loss

Bradley fought PAC twice, jmm, prov. he deserves respect no doubt, too bad he seems to suffer from phantom injuries too often.

I've always respected Bradley and I'm a fan of him. Dude gives it his all everytime.
