Anyone else think Bradley/Alexander wasn't that terrible?

I agree. I just chalk it up to people loving to be negative.

I agree, it was an ok fight, at times even back and forth and actually close until the 8th round or so, then Bradley was clearly extending his points lead. Of course the ending totally spoiled the fight, I think that's why most people are disappointed and exaggerate.

It was a decent fight, not stuff of legend but it wasn't Bhop/Winky either.

I am right there with you

I think the hype surrounding the fight doomed it but for the most part it was intriguing to see and I think we got a lot of answers out of it

Bradley is legit and belongs with the elite. He may not be the prettiest fighter to watch but he gets the job done.

Alexander may have been exposed as a one dimensional fighter. Seemingly all he can do is 1-2 and basic counters. Doesn't really go well on the inside, his uppercut was dead in the water, and his footwork was okay but seemed to back up straight rather than turn Bradley.

admittedly I don't prefer a rematch but if it happened I would still watch it

personally, having low expectations going in and not being as interested as most hardcore fans...the fight isnt as bad as people are making it out to be. it's pretty much what i thought it would be. i dont consider either guy really exciting or entertaining. or as skilled as some of the hype would have some believe (especially on the alexander end) and i thought they both pretty much did what they always do

It wasn't really a bad fight at all. I just think people got fooled into believing this would be an all out war, when in fact neither guy fights in a manner to make a fight even between themselves a "war".

Good fight, but wouldn't be screaming for joy if they announce a rematch.

I thought it was a good performance from Bradley and it further exposed Alexander as the bum azz fighter that he is..

It really wasn't that bad of a fight just a bad ending. The hype is what killed it. The expectations were too high, I had a feeling it might be a stinker just based on the style match up.

I thought it was a good fight, with a good mix of action. Its a styles contrast and on top of that, two fighters evenly matched, in every dept. except heart.

The ending is the real downer here. Alexander is going to live in infamy now
