    I Golota still considered active?



    In recent years, I'd say Bhop, Golota, Casa really take the cake. Tim isn't dirty at all. Floyd's pretty dirty too if you actually follow boxing rules. All that shoulder push and elbow throwing is big time borderline but he gets away with it.

    Being a dirty fighter is a lot more than having one questionable move.

You can see it even better at 3:30. All Bradley does is going in to punch. Campbell leans back to avoid and then leans in and the heads clash. Things like that happen, Bradley has a hard head and this cut wasn't even that bad (and the second Alexander cut was even more ridiculous).

      If fighters are so afraid of headbutts, maybe they should be better at keeping their guard up and/or keeping Bradley at distance.
      Yea right dude. Bradley has a history of this. Bradley gets low and goes in head first. In the Alexander fight, he actually swings his head sideways when going in

          great sig.

          he goes in low because he's 5'6". bradley's head thing is really just an unfortunate result of his size, style, and aggressiveness.

            I wish I could find the post-fight interview Bradley gave in the ring. If I remember correctly Bradley said something like.. "I saw Devon coming in with his head so I went in also"

            That doesn't sound like it was unintentional

                You don't remember correctly, simple as that.

                  Bhop and Holy by far. Sorry, can't give them a pass because they're old by calling it 'ring craft' like most people do. Tim isn't far behind though.

                    Real talk.
                    Lazarte, Cermeño and Arce(francisco) are dirtier than Bradley.

                      Cermeno and Lazarte are far worse.

                      Just watch some of Cermeno's fight. Kneeing, butting, low blows, etc. Hell, he even spun around Mijares and bunched him in the back. It's a part of what makes him so difficult to fight.

                      While I haven't seen the fights, Lazarte has been DQ'd four times (two or three were in Argentina FWIW). His actions versus Solis were terrible, in what was one of the worst decisions of 2010. Not only did he lose 9 rounds easily, but he should have been DQ'd. Go to 20 seconds for his most egregious foul of the night.
