Originally posted by Hard Boiled View PostWhat do Berto and Bradley share in common? They are both African American boxers, Both are grossly overhyped and both are soon going to be former world champions, Just as Ortiz dismantled Andre Berto I fear that Bradley is going to suffer an even greater embarrasment at the hands of Khan.
Alot of people have discredited Ortiz and Khan because both have had losses one was said to have no heart and proved everyone wrong against Berto, The other everyone said had no chin but took each and everyshot Maidana through at him. Instead the hype was always focused on Berto and Bradley, I guess alot of that has to do with them being African American, Lets be honest if Bradley or Berto were not African American but any other ethnic group in the US they would not have received the kind of media attention or hype surrounding them.
Berto and Bradley soon to be to former world champions are having to make way for Khan and Ortiz. Im willing to bet all my points on Khan beating Bradley with anyone who is willing to take the bet.
Seems like your problem is with "African Americans" IN GENERAL which is why you posted AFRICAN AMERICAN in your post at least 3 Times
BY THE WAY...BERTO IS HAITIAN AMERICAN
I think ALL OF THOSE FIGHTERS AT 140 ARE OVERRATED...ESPECIALLY KHAN, he is the biggest hype JOB in that division, 2nd most hyped guy was probably Devon Alexander especially after his KO against Urango
Bradley has NEVER really be all that HYPED, despite being #1 in the Division and on the P4P List, those other fighters still get talked about more then he does.
So who really is the HYPE JOB??? I THINK IT IS KHAN! The guys who is looking so far ahead and talking about potential fighting Mayweather, the guy who THINKS he is already a CASH COW and a MEGA STAR.
Bradley worked his way up to the top at 140, he wasn't GIVEN A BUNCH OF VACANT TITLES...he went to the UK and TOOK HIS CURRENT WBC TITLE by beating Witter IN THE UK!
While Khan after getting his A$$ KO'd by Prescott, his next fight he was fighting some BUM for a VACANT WBA Title
BUT yet some how people are convinced that Bradley is the Overhyped ONE and NOT KHAN hahaha It is pretty obviously that some people don't know what Overhyped or Overrated is.

I think some people are deliberately avoiding the core of this thread and focusing on the cosmetic sides of things by saying Haiti is not part of Africa, Its not but Haitians like Africans are black, The main point Im trying to get across is that Berto like Bradley is an overhyped "slick" black fighter with a padded record who is going to soon loose his undefeated status in spectacular fashion.
The reason Berto and Bradley are so grossly overhyped is because THEY ARE BLACK not because of thier boxing ability, Lets be honest if Berto or Bradley were any other race they would not have even a fraction of the level of publicity or media attention that they enjoy.
For all those out there that say Khan is more hyped that Bradley they are either naive or deliberately duplicitous, Khan went to the Olympics and that brings alot of media attention with it, If Bradley was so good then why didnt he go to the Olympics and get a medal? He wasnt good enough. All roads at 140lbs should lead to Khan instead they lead to Bradley because of his undefeated status and because of Bradleys race.

Originally posted by Dirk Diggler UK View PostKhan dominated the first 9 rounds against Maidana. But yeah I agree Maidana was landing those looping shots round Khan's guard which Bradley sometimes throws. Bradley is shorter and has a smaller reach than Maidana though. Plus he doesnt have the same power.

People keep forgetting how much Bradley uses head butts to win. He head butted Alexander at least four times. He almost knocked Holt out with a head butt that was clearly blatant. Timmy is the dirtiest fighter around.
They guy is a very good boxer but Amir is simply bigger and faster. Khan has what a six inch reach advantage and a four inch height advantage?
I don't know why Maidana doesn't call out Bradley. I think Maidana would ko him cold.
