Fraud? Timmy was a class fighter. One of those who I wish had got power to go with the rest of his game. Without power he was excellent, with it he would of been special.
Tim Bradley was a fraud fighter

Bradley was a warrior and always entertaining to watch. Don't think he was ever overhyped anyway. Kind of ironic coming from the guy always wiping David Benavidez loads off his chin.Comment

I have mixed feelings about Timbo
on one hand, his ROBBERY W against Pac still pisses me off
the fact we had to endure a Pac-Timmeh trilogy, when not even a rematch should have been needed, pisses me off even more
on the other hand, it was nice to see him schooling MarPEds and denying him the WW belt he craved so much, and his slugfest with Provodnikov was great to watch
He never beat Pacquiao
they robbed Pac in that fight in a clear attempt to make a new star out of Timid Tim
too bad his lack of personality and marshmallow fists failed to attract the fans
Timbo was never on Pac's levelComment

He was a good fighter. His first fight with Pacquiao was much closer than many want to admit or realise. Watch it without badly biased commentary and Pac was missing almost everything and Bradley swept most of the second half of the fight. It was very, very close.
He did duck Amir Khan though, not sure why. Maybe because Bradley wasn’t much of a puncher and didn’t fancy a straight up boxing match with Khan’s hand speed at the time.
He was never the same after the Provodnikov fight.Last edited by deathofaclown; 07-31-2022, 05:07 PM.Comment

I know. I had it 117-111 Pac. If Bradley power that matched his physique, he could have been a real force, but had a serious lack of pop. Nash out.I have mixed feelings about Timbo

Bradley was a solid fighter with a good chin, stamina and technic. I thought he lost to Pac but he was competitive in the first fight. He would had given problems to any top fighter at 140 and 147. Too bad promotional companies didn't let their fighters go at it because there were other match ups that should had happened.
Also a miss opportunity to fight Khan that at the time was the fight the everyone wanted because the titles they were going to fight for. Arum offer him a Pac fight and he went that direction.
As for the steroid allegation the mods are going to start banning people again.Comment
