Something Fishy About Bradley vs Vargas...

Call me paranoid but something seems off about this matchup to me, the way Bradley has been getting matched up in general is off. Chaves is a tough customer not signed to TR, that wasn't a fight that had to happen and Bob none the less put it together. When it went to the scorecards most believe Bradley won aaaaaand ... a draw??? Now he's getting matched up against Vargas, a kid who has seen some decisions go his way that maybe shouldn't have, a kid who doesn't have much of a name but could with a win over a guy like Bradley mostly because of his heritage. Idk I was thinking about putting a few bucks on Bradley, I haven't even checked the line, but something just feels "off" ... It's the exact kind of fight that even if Bradley gets robbed Vargas gets the exposure he needs. Or maybe Bradley is thinking about jumping ship and heading over to PBC? Feel free to bump this to call me an idiot if the fight goes off without a hitch ...

they are gonna make sure that Bradley never loses like danny Garcia. I do not know what these fighters have that make them get all the breaks. if vargas was hurt then the ref would have made the round go a minute longer

If that had happened a minute earlier, Bradley would not have made it to the end of the fight. He would have hung on for the ten seconds that were left but never for an entire minute. He's survived worse, he would've made it to the end.

Vargas doesn't have what it takes to be the chosen one. He's about as basic as cable. Arum is not that dumb. He's know there's no money in Vargas. Get real, fast. If anything Arum is using Vargas and his little hype to add another notch under Bradley's belt. It will be another "name" and "big" win to rebuild Bradley's brand. Since Bradley doesn't have sh¡t at WW but a gift and a close win over 55 y/o Marquez. Bradley has been a dud at WW, after being one of the best 140lbrs in a long time. #GET REAL,FAST. :sombrero:

bradley has a tendency to make things harder to himself, he can easily outbox this guy and that guy, but at some point you know he will exchange, and i think tonight he is gonna do it, but still, he should beat vargas comfortably. On point, on point.

What makes you think he couldn't hang on with Vargas when he hung on with Provodnikov, a much more deadly puncher and finisher, he did it multiple times throughout the fight and was actually dropped with a minute or so to go in the 12th. He had Algieri blitzed out in one round and couldn't finish him. If anything I'd call Provodnikov a weak finisher considering he usually hurts everyone he fights multiple times.

I hate to say it again but fl0mos love to bullsh1t Just today I've been told Floyd fought a prime Zab and the Bradley Vargas scorecards were way too wide What are you guys on?

How were you right? The judges had it 8-4 twice with one 10-8 round and 9-3 That's what most people scored it

10 seconds to go? He got saved ? ... This is Bradley we are talking about He was badly hurt. Looked like shady officiating to me.

This happened so Arum could easily sell a rematch.

I'll bump it ... I was wrong but I was right! Two of those scorecards were obscene and that nonsense at the end???? I'm under the impression if that happens a minute earlier Bradley doesn't get the benefit of the doubt he did in the Prov match... I was ultimately wrong though.. The right man won.

I was reading and actually thinking you might have been making sense up until here ... Now I can't take your post seriously If you can't take the truth seriously, then I have no problem Personally with you living in a fantasy land. Your choice. He had a gift with Pac. Some say had a gift with Ruslan, very close fight. Beat a past it Marquez Lost to Pac. Let Chaves crawl back into a fight he had no business being in. He should have gotten the nod IMO. But he shot himself in the foot. From what he did at 140, to the aforementioned results. Thats a huge drop off. The skill did not transition into WW at the same level it was at LWW. If this somehow cannot be taken seriously then you ate not in touch with reality. These are facts.

Naw you need to get real. There will be tons of money in Vargas if he beats the dude who took marquez to school. Might give Vargas a Pacman fight with a judge in his pocket after that too. Simple as that You do realize Marquez is 40+, 3-4 divisions over his best weight class, and has a losing record at WW. Carry on.
