    Are Timothy Bradley's Headbutts Accidental Or Intentional? (Audio)

    Do you believe Timothy Bradley is using headbutts intentionally as an additional weapon in fights or are the headbutts purely accidental and simply an unpredictable, random side-effect of his explosive fighting technique?

    Here's a short edited version of the Bradley vs Alexander post-fight show by Rope A Dope Radio where a back and forth debate unfolds about Bradley's headbutting. The full show goes into further discussion about the issue with a number of independent listeners calling in to offer their differing views.

    I don't think they are 'intentional.' He seems like he respects the sport, but I do believe he knows his height and style will result in a lot of head clashes and is prepared to accept that gives him an advantage.

      Unintentional.

      With the way he fights, he's susceptible for headbutting an opponent.

        I think I see what you mean, it's like a possible outcome of his style which he's aware of but you think he doesn't purposely target opponents with the head.
