Timothy Bradley hype

[Hassan93k]

I've been hearing a lot of hype about Bradley for a while now and have seen all his last few fights.

There seems to be a lot of hype surrounding him, and people are saying he would beat khan with "ease" and even give Floyd and Manny trouble.

However, personally apart from Pressure and willpower (+headbutt which he gets away with) I do not see anything special in him that makes me believe he could beat Khan, manny or floyd.

What do you guys see in bradley? How do you rate him? And how do you think he would do against Khan, Manny and Floyd??

This is MY opinion. I dont mind your opinion as long as you dont start swearing/trying to start riots with other people on the forum.

What do you think?

He can fight going forward and backward, inside and out. He has shown an ability to beat different styles and take a big punch. He is one of the better fighters in the sport at adjusting during a fight to what his opponent is doing. He is also one of the better fighters in the sport at finding a weak spot and exploiting it.

Bradley has earned his hype, which isn't even that much.

[The_Golden_Goy]

Bradley doesnt have any hype around him, only the hype he creates himself with Brand Bradley. He has no PPV status, no fanbase, an unexciting style and will probably get beat by the first major opponent he faces.

and no i dont count Devon as a major opponent

He is over all good in many areas not so great in any specific area. A good fighter overall but nothing special.

Speaking as an Amir Khan fan, Khan can only prove himself as best in the 140 lb division if he beats Timothy Bradley.

If Khan doesn't, for whatever reason, he remains another accomplished fighter with a good resume but not tested to his full potential.

If Bradley Khan is made my money is on Khan to win but the fight needs to happen.

I think he is HANDS DOWN the best and most COMPLETE fighter at 140, BUT...despite being considered #1 in that division by most publications/writers/rankings...he might actually be the most UNDERRATED in that division still!

Khan, Alexander, Ortiz...they all received WAY MORE HYPE THEN BRADLEY at least from the MEDIA AND FANS, while Bradley seems to get the most DOUBT and HATE from the FANS AND MEDIA

Bradley is the REAL DEAL, the headbutts is just something that happens, he is a shorter guy with shorter arms so he has to get closer to his opponent to be EFFECTIVE, he doesn't have the LONG ARMS to fight from a distance, so he has to basically jump in against his opponents to land punches, so with him jumping in and also keeping his head down and chin tucked in, yeah Headbutts will happen, also he uses a ton of head movement defensively

but Timothy Bradley seems to get more HATE then HYPE though but his skills in the ring CANNOT BE DENIED! He is a very Technical Fighter that does an amazing job compensating for the lack of Power...and I don't even think he "LACKS POWER", that overhand right has stunned a few fighters, I just think he doesn't just DEPEND ON IT as much as others do

The only thing Bradley has is a huge head, check out his wife, he picked her out so their kids will have the biggest head on earth and train them to become boxers like daddy.


This guy has no fans
Has no drawing power
He isnt charasmatic
He cant sell a fight
He called out Amir Khan on live TV calling him a chicken and when Amir Khan offers him his career high payday he ducks him

Then complaining on radio that his promoter didnt put up Billboards or hold "Rallies" for him despite him not being able to sell 500 seats in his hometown AND he complained that they fought in a empty arena in Detroit vs Alexander when the only other option was in St. Luis where everyone gets robbed.

This guy is a lunatic
