The article says, Pacquiao knocked Hatton out in 2008. It was in 2009.
Bradley fights nothing Like Hatton.Comment

seeWhat scorecards did you hear in the Holt fight??Holt only won the rds in which he konck Bradley down..IMO that's a dominate win..Cherry was outclassed so I don't know how that's lackluster??I'll give ya the Witter fight,because the scorecards were close,but with ya own to eyes Bradley clearly beat Witter,,The main reason that fight was close on the cards was because of where the fight was held...
Bradley is a very underrated fighter who is question are downplayed all the time(as you are doing right now)..When in fact dude is a two time unified Champion,and has clearly beat every fighter he has faced..Can you name me the fight in which you truly felt the fight could have went either way??Like I said,it's not about overrating Bradley as much as it's giving the guy the respect he deserves..Unlike some who down play a kid who has done some pretty wonderful things in his short career so far..
your revising history
Holt was pretty close and had Bradley in dire straits towards the end of this fight to say he was dominating is again letting your bias for him speak more than anything.
the Cherry fight was okay but in all honesty are using Edner Cherry as a benchmark?
Witter- again with revising history and subjecting your own bias into it. I rooted for Timmy and thought it could have gone either way with the KD essentially tipping it his way
the last paragraph is written with more bias but yes I thought both the Holt and Witter fighters were closeComment

Gary Shaw had this man fighting at the doubletree hotel late into his career. ?He was basically an opponent vs Witter in UK, Cherry in Mississippi, and Holt in Canada (of all places), and once back in the US he's fighting at Chumash and Agua Caliente on the regular. 2 hokey casinos during a recession? Then for the biggest fight of his career he books the Pontiac Silverdome near Detroit? Nevermind Alexander is from St Louis and Bradley from SoCal. So what The Silverdome guaranteed 2mil if the gate does 5,000 whats the point?
This guy got to where he is inspite of Gary Shaw. Bradley should have been fighting at Nokia, Staples, Honda, Ontario, HP, Oracle, Vegas, etc etc etc. he should have been on big undercards for years now, not headlining fairgrounds shows. But you know why he wasn't? Because Shaw doesn't have A listers to pair him up with. And how was Shaw going to make it up to Bradley for being loyal and fighting through all those minor league shows? He was going to feed him to Khan and concede everything in the contract to Khan and Golden Boy including the Lion's share of money, venue, ring size, etc etc. Shaw saw the writing on the wall and was trying to cash Out. That's gratitude. Not taking that fight and signing with TR to win the Manny lottery is the smartest thing he did. It's a win win. Lose to Manny? No shame, the world now knows Tim's name. Win? And be right there with Buster Douglas in the annals of championship upsets (in the mainstream media). The world is his oyster.
No losing in this proposition short of pulling a Cheaterson or Plasterito. And Shaw gets zero. It's a win-win-win.Comment

Yes they had an agreement to fight and Bradley was a nobody then. He got the win against Witter but most people put that down to Witter being finished. Malignaggi was #1 in the division behind Hatton.Comment
