Comments Thread For: Bradley: I Knew in The First, Alexander Isn't on My Level

[fitefan]

I've read that some writers feel that since Tim Bradley is a smaller guy, he has to charge in quickly with his shots; that makes sense.

Nonetheless, with all the headbutting, I have to say that I'm not particularly excited to see him fight in the future. (Except, of course, his likely summer battle with Khan for 140 pound supremacy)

that's too much of an excuse. how is that fighters who share his same physical dimensions are not involved in as much butts?

that mutha****a butts entirely too often for it to be accidental

Whats funny is the only reason u think Bradley caused the headbutts is becuz his reputation, but u can clearly SEE with ur own eyes Alexander cause most of the headbutts. Using ur eyes, not just reputation.

Just becuz Bradley always comes out of every headbutt okay, doesn't mean he causes them all. He's just blessed with a hard head. I bet if Alexander had caused Bradley to cut everyone would be blaming him for the headbutt. Its always the one that doesn't get hurt that is blamed.

i've scene bradley's last 6 fights, dude........**** a reputation

Dude how is the smaller fighter responsible for butts??This must mean either the taller fighter is leaning in or the other fighter is trying to clinch(both of which Devon was doing)Devon was responsible for most of the butts because of his clinching and trying his hardest not to engage,Bradley's opponents are bigger then him so once in their guard they have no choice but to clinch and Bradley does not stop punching..You can't ask Bradley not to be aggressive can you??

Like I said Devon landed two butts to start the fight off go and see for ya self..The butt that caused a cut to Devon was caused by Devon,he kept holding and trying to get off in the clinch so when he held Bradley Bradley kept on punching..Devon tried to punch while he still was clinching Bradley and that's why the heads came together watch for ya self..

The ref has the best view of this fight and I believe Garza was a straight shooter,if Bradley was intentionally butting he would have had points deducted..Bottom line just deal with the fact Bradley dominated Devon and made him look like his *****..

i'm a leave this alone after reading this

so, because bradley's the shorter fighter he's not to be accountable for the butts his leaping in causes? there's no point in us going any further on this

I think its a bit exagerated to say he dominated. In my opinion neither fighter looked good in this fight. If Tim was a true champ he would admit it didnt end the way he wanted and give Devon an Immediate rematch.. And if Devon really isnt on his level then stop him , a legit stoppage with punches not headbutts.

There is no reason to see this fight again at this point in time,you saying Bradley did not dominate this fight is like me saying May did dominate Mosley..Or Froch did not dominate AA..Bradley dominated this kid and the biggest reason why ya know he did is cause all ya can talk about is butts..News Flash Alexander caused umm with his clinching and trying to hit on the break(which funny enough really is dirty)Bradley never let him in the fight..I gave Devon two rds,rd 2 and rd 7 (and that's me being nice)other then that Bradley dominated him..Your right the fight was not that good(although I did not mind the fight)but it was Devon fault he did not was to fight what is what Bradley is talking bout anyway..

People are calling Bradley a dirty fighter and saying he causes butts..Me bringing up Bradleys height is to show you that its unrealistic to just say Bradley is the cause..Devon was leaning in and clinching in this fight he was mostly to blame..Bradley is very short and if he ws intentionally Butting his opponent the ref would see it and take a point..Has a point ever been taking from him for butting??No why cause there is no intent and if ya can't prove it then it don't make sense to accuse Bradley of being dirty

c'mon rome... it's not just that timmah is shorter... he leads with his head, especially when he's throwing the right hand.

it's a two punch combination... first he throws his head, then he'll follow with the right hand.

Ok I'm not saying bradley does not play a part but what I'm saying is he is not totally to blame..Be honest did you think the majority of the butts was caused by Bradley??

[PandaKilla]

Bradley did not even fight on HBO yet so you know that fight would have made no money..Let's be real Devon did not look good vs Urango,great finish but not a great overall fight by him..Bradley need to fight on HBO and get some exposure before a fight with Devon could be made..Be honest if the fight had happened at any other time do you think either of umm would have made a Mill??

The mill would have came pre Kotelnik IMO.

The Abregu fight didn't do anything for anyone IMO.

Alexander was hot, ranked number 2.

Heck they couldn't even sell seats and from that point, people on the whole felt Bradley would win.

Before it was 50/50 almost.

HBO have a budget and it's started in Jan.

Yes it is caused by him.

Being shorter or whatever doesn't mean anything.

He leads with a punch and walks in. That is how he fights, kinda sloppy at times too.

Now when you duck to land that sneaky right hand or those hooks, you will butt someone.

Hopkins lands and then comes in. ****. Ward lands and coems in to hold and ****.

The Kottie fight and the Abregu fight was set up fights so that they can face each other right after..Bradley dominated his while Devon imo lost his,HBO was not gonna pay each fighter a mill before that noway..It was not Bradleys fault Devon looked like **** vs Kottie nobody thought Kottie even stood a chance tbh(look at the odds for that fight)it was a build up fight for these two fighters to meet..

Really looking forward to bradley v khan to decide top dog at 140, both very good in the ring and it may come down to where the fight is staged, if in england then khan will take it, if in the states bradley may well do

Every fighter does something dirty to gain advantage in a fight..Kahn and Maayweather are known for leaning on fighters knecks with their elbows when they are opponents are kneeling,Maidanais known for throwing elbows..But intentional butts is something different then gaining an advantage..I don't buy Bradley is intentionally butting guys he would have had a point taking from by now if thatwas the case..
