The Timothy 'Desert Storm' Bradley deception

[AllEyesOpen]

Bradley is a great fighter. I'm not saying he isn;t. He will give Amir hell but his resume isn't that much better than Amir's.

It isn't that much better? cause you original post made it seem like **** compared to Khan's, which is clearly not the case.

[wazaa.]

His hand speed maybe quicker, but his lateral movement is not, and his footwork might be comparable. Khan is very straight up and down, Bradley leans side to side, he's never in the same position longer than a few seconds. Khan holds hand speed over Bradley, that's it.



So the much slower handed, and slower footed Maidana could get in on Amir, but the faster more elusive Bradley won't?

Uhhuh.



You mean the one punch that consistently lands on Amir?

If with consistently, you mean 3 times in the entire fight then...okay.

I only stated facts. Quite funny isn't it? That, by stating facts, Bradley's resume looks like **** compared with Amir's. .

Agreed. I'm not condemning McCloskey and his camp, but Amir did nothing wrong there. He stood his ground in a firm but polite manner.

Initially, you are correct.

But after the fight in a the press conference. A massive no.

He shocked a lot of boxing pundits with his disrespect.

I guess his people were saying this, that, and the other and winding up Amir.

But he went off on a massive tangent about levels of fighter and how he would have hurt Paul. It didn't sit well with anyone.

Distinctly, un-Amir.

Someone needs to reign him in.

[BallisticAffair]

He spat his dummy out and rubbished a fellow professional like a terrible little ****head.

Amir has a lot of yes men around him.

Which part of his post-fight statement "rubbished" Dudey?

LOL this thread is SO FUNNY because a lot of these people are MISINFORMED and they are posting as FANS OF A BOXER(Khan)!

If anybody is OVERRATED and OVERHYPED in the 140 Division...IT IS KHAN!

Alexander, Khan, Ortiz and Maidana all received much more HYPE then Bradley even though Bradley is the one that most people consider the #1 fighter at 140 and he is on some P4P List (Ring Magazine), but yet Khan is the one getting all the HYPE and he hasn't done ANYTHING, his hype is off of his POTENTIAL...NOT BASED ON WHAT HE HAS DONE IN THE RING!

He has SO MANY FLAWS that I see Bradley EASILY EXPOSING, like the fact that Khan is so Horrible fighting inside that he usually just tries to AVOID IT all together. Khan defense is also HORRIBLE ESPECIALLY INSIDE, the Ref saved him a few times against Maidana, he doesn't know how to clinch when he is hurt, he usually just put up his Guard and Run. It is going to be extremely hard to run from Bradley!

Bradley is going to bully him and push him around and get right in his chess and break him down on the inside. Khan struggled landing on McCloskey, he is really going to have troubles with Bradley Head Movements.

Just like I posted going into the Alexander fight, Bradley IS JUST TOO SEASONED FOR THESE FIGHTERS AT 140. I think the same thing will happen in this fight, Bradley will be TOO SEASONED for the Younger Fighter.

Unfortunately I do see headbutts happening during this fight, which is one way Khan COULD END UP WINNING! He could try to get the fight stopped early especially if he starts off fast and build a lead early

Team Khan was giving Team McCloskey their respect until Team McCloskey started shouting and making fun of Oscar and Amir when they were talking. Amir was just standing up for his victory and not let some deluded people from Team McCloskey dictate what the press conference should be about.



I love this Amir.

[Rome-By-Ko]

Roy was also #1 when Tarver beat him. But everybody knows that Roy wasn't the same way before that. Like Roy, so did Witter depend heavily on his legs and reflexes. Both these attributes were faded quite a lot when they met.



Paulie Malignaggi dominated Cherry as well.



Maidana beast, big puncher, prime and better resume




McCloskey's resume was as weak as Peterson's. But Amir had a quite tough fight imo so I'll give him credit for it.



Who did Alexander get those belts from? By beating a shot to **** Junior Witter? he was even more shot than when Bradley fought him. he got the IBF belt from beating Urango. Hmmm...okay... ... who did Urango beat again? He got beat by Kotelnik after that. Devon is a fine example of a paper champion.

Jones and Tarver had a war the first time they met,Jones was not past it..Not to mention Jones won their first bout..

Devon was Champ none the less and was a fighter Khan was not even thinking bout fighting tbh..

Paulie has not been the same since the Cotto beat down be honest..

We can break down both opponents all day long but why not we just stick to the facts..Bradley unified the belts twice and has fought more Champions..Bradley has fought more diverse opponents..And beat more highly ranked oponents,an is ranked num1 at the weightclass..His resume is better based on facts how's that better for you??

Which pundits? I honestly didn't pay attention to what writers/announcers had to say about that fight.


The comments you're talking about didn't bother me. He's a fighter, he said he would've kicked another fighter's ass if it had gone on...in response to accusing comments from McCloskey's side (didn't Paul also say he would've knocked Amir out late in the same presser?). If there's an uproar over that, those pundits need to stop stirring up **** over nothing.


Amir has made assertive statements in the past about "levels" and being on a different class from fighters. I honestly didn't see anything out of the ordinary in Amir's demeanour. When he's pressured or feels set upon, that's how he carries himself.
