Who all is a Timothy Bradley Fan?

[Walt Liquor]

Cowardly bum.

Lol! Dirk's "bradley getting props" pager went off and he had to sprint to the computer to talk shi t.....

[mathed]

25 year old champ, who took the belt on the champions home turf. He seems to haveevery good boxing skill, I would not say he has great power but he throws nice snappy sharp punches.

Nobody ever talks about this cat though and he is one of the best young title holders in the sport.

Anyone else a fan of this man or have any opinion on him at all?

Bradley will become a much bigger name after this fight, win lose or draw. The thing is, people sleep on Tim Bradley and I think Pac is going to overlook him. Bradley is a smart guy, he will study tons of tape on Pac, have multiple strategies for offense and defense and he knows that if he is nice to Pac up until the fight, Pac will take him lightly. On fight night, Bradley will be a completely different person than the one Pac is familiar with.....he will remind Pac of Clottey though.

I say Pac has a really hard time with Bradley and I'm pulling for Tim to get the upset but with the scoring the way it is, that's a tough order unless he gets a KO.

It was just an odd choice where it was held, it got promoted but mostly by the Silverdome from my understanding, butthe fight could have done awesome and it would have looked like **** considering the Silverdome has like 90grand capacity. They got paid to bring it here for some reason though.

Bradley is unlucky in the hometown department, he can draw there and there is a casino is close but just is not that big so I can understand trying to do something else with him still there didn't seem to be any plan to turn him into a ticket seller. I think that was a major uphill battle though, so I can't fault Shaw to much.
Yea he should have beat Khan as it only could have helped him long run and Shaw would have done a one off just to be associated with a big fight, so there wasn't that much risk, and it would have been fun to see him batter Khan.

from all accounts i read the promotion in detroit for that fight was shi t. Shaw has always ****** at building local attractions and the majority of his fighters bring in shi t for gate bradley is a local in probably the biggest boxing hotbed in the us (so cal) and even if he's not mexican or armenian, he should be able to attract more than 750 paying folks or whatever the that casino.

I heard about it several times in commercials and print but the fighters were only here for the presser, so they only went so far and basically said fuck it when they needed to pull out all the stops if they wanted to do well. Plus there wasn't much in terms of local talent, only Vernon Paris from what I saw atleast he was the only one had seen before or remembered seeing before.

He can certainly do good in and around Palm Springs, although I don't know how much he will be getting back there with Arum considering his contentious relations with the California commission.

I think it will be hard for Tim to really take advantage of this oppurtunity.

I don't think he can win but putting that aside, if he is going to do well the more boring and ugly the fight the better his chances are. Even if a guy beats a giant super star in that sort of fashion hard to gain a bunch of fans.

IF the fight is exciting in any way I just don't see how Bradley comes out the better in the end, but Bradley could actually gain more from that than winning ugly in terms of long run appeal.

This is certainly a huge spot for him, and he deserves his chance to prove if he is on that level or not.

I'm definitely a Bradley fan. It's to common now for boxers to ake a risky iChat lose and be called a bum. What I wonder about is who fights witter in England ( whom ricky Hatton wouldn't face with a baseball bat) and comes out with a win. Then who goes on to fight Holt, Campbell, Alexander and basically cleaned out the 140 division all except Khan. Look up Khan resume and you can see Maidana who he was marathon running from to avoid in a close fight that Khan never gave a rematch too, but he cried about Peterson. I simply love boxing so every fighter has good and bad points but the lite are simply that ELITE. Will Bradley be that. I don't know but I hope he gives it his best and puts on a crowd pleasing performance. After PAC there are plenty of good fights left for the division. Ortiz, Berto, Maidana, khan, Brock, Mayweather, Alexander and many more. Let's see who steps up.

I'm not much of a fan but I wish he has a good enough outing that people won't look at him as a bum if he happens to lose. I'm rooting for Manny to win, but won't be upset or surprised if Timmy gets the W

Yea, the card had ONE local fighter...

Shaw just doesnt do the local thing, which is about the last thing i respect arum for sometimes. Bradley needs to show out this fight. Most people think pac is gonna blow him out.
