Bradley and Ward were not elite, Foreman and Jones Jr. where elite. If you choose to have subpar commentators this is what you get. People speaking down on modern boxers because they were not that good at boxing themselves. Boxing is the sport of "Hit and Not get Hit" , if you going into the sport knowing you can not hit its not good. You then get the bitterness of the mediocrity of the commentators shining through in their words.
You're right Tim Bradley didn't beat Manny Pacquiao, and neither did Jeff Horn, while we're on the subject.
Moreover the first fight against Manuel Marquez wasn't a draw, Pacquiao won that fight as well, scoring 3 knockdowns in the process.
I hated seeing Pacquiao getting cheated in those fights, he was a special fighter, and one of the greatest fighters in the annuals of boxing's history.
Now back to subject of this post, although Tim Bradley was a hell of a fighter in his day, but he's not an unbiased commentator.
He doesn't always call the fight the way it's actually taking place in the ring, and for that very reason he shouldn't be a commentator.
Teofimo Lopez should be concentrating on his up coming fight against Josh Taylor, who I believe is going to put a serious hurting on him on Saturday.
Criticizing Tim Bradley, and Andre Ward, isn't going to help Teofimo Lopez Jr., one iota before, during, or after his fight against Josh Taylor.
I agree that you can always tell who Bradley is pulling for in his commentary, but in Lopez’ fight with Lomachenko he was rooting for him, so he’s being ungrateful in this one.
A lot of what Teo been saying lately is absurd but kinda behind him on Bradley HOF. If he wasn’t Rollyied that decision vs Pacquaio would he be in the HOF? I don’t think so. Just my thoughts though always thought he was overrated AF
You guy are casuals and we're not watching boxing by than dude is definitely a hall a famer look at thr people he fought
