    Timothy Bradley wants to move up to welterweight and Tommy Hearns is one one of the greatest welterweights of all time.
    I know Hearns was huge for a welter but Bradley is way too undersized and underpowered for 147.

      Tommy needs to be teaching Paul how to use his height to fight. Instead of trying to duck a 5'9" man's punch.

        He's 5'6

        I agree with you though, Pwill needs help.

            Timmy needs to stay away from welterweight for as long as possible. I don't think he will have a choice though because besides a Khan fight and a possible Maidana fight there are no real options for him at 140.

            He would be a tiny welterweight though.

                its quite obvious hes working on form and power so hes holding back on the speed to really focus on those two aspects.

                how is he showing bradley to fight in tommys style? bcuz hes working on his jab, the most basic thing in boxing?

                hearns is helping him work on his technique in his straight punches to develope maximum power and on cutting down the ring. hes showing him how to use a powerful jab to back get close and set up his power punches.

                everything hearns showed can be applied to any style, he did nothing whatsoever that would work only in his own way of fighting.

                  Great video footage..... It's good to see an all time great blessing the young generation with the his vast knowledge and experience(The game is to be sold not told) so shoutout to the Hitman for his genuine love for the sport.... I haven't been real big on Bradley but he deserves credit for being so receptive and showing the desire to get better this is what the sport is all about!!!!

                    I AGREE TOTALLY!!!! While watching Paul's fight last week I kept thinking that Paul needs someone like Emmanuel Steward to teach him how to use his size advantage and it's a real shame that his current trainer has not already done that!!!!!
