    If Bradley Is Smart He Will Market Himself As The Bad Guy

    If he wants to make something out of this robbery he will market himself as bad guy and take advantage of the hate he is getting right now.

    I agree 100%. I can see him being a guy that people pay to see him lose.

    Problem is I don't think he has the heart to embrace the role as the villian. He's a "nice guy" so to speak. We'll see what happens though. I'm actually more interested in seeing what his next moves will be than what Pac's will.

        Very smart idea. He wont get very far whining that everyone should see that he was the obvious victor.

          Disagree... Bradley should just keep doing his thing

          Hopefully the fans will wise up and see him for what he really is, which is a dedicated boxer who earned what he has the hard way

          He'll never be a PPV fighter no matter what, so if he just wants to sell tickets, he should just be who he is

            he doesn't have it in him. he's a good guy, a real good guy and he wants people to love/respect him. Dude is like literally depressed everyone thinks he lost and the hate he's getting. he's an emotional guy and it really bothers him so much that he's "losing the love for the sport" etc.

            not everyone can just play the role of the bad guy and be cool with the negativity that comes with it. Guys like Floyd and others, their born for that kind of stuff.

                he should just scream bacon and make angry faces everytime someone tries to interview him or ask him a question. that's how i would market him

                  He can't do villain, people will see through that right away.......but after hearing that interview where he lost his love for boxing I thought of Hagler. That's the role he might find himself in and it's something that wouldn't be fabricated. whenever he goes up against a true primadonna or another villain, the distinction between a more blue collar Bradley will always be obvious

                  He going to be bitter from here on out ...and it's gonna be the type of chip on his shoulder, underdog mentality that could possibly sell as long as he keeps on winning because so much changes fight to fight......being so fresh at 28 will help him him because he will be around for a while and sky is still the limit, he just got an official win over Pac ffs

                  Just keep on being himself, consummate professional, passive aggressive, and bitter.

                  When this blows over, after a while I think the ppl will eventually understand why the chip on his shoulder is jusitified from his perspective and it will draw a distinction between him and an obvious "villain" like Mayweather..

                  Bradley brings somewhat of a blue collar element and just because he is decent person doesnt mean he won't speak up for himself and talk trash when necessary. it actually makes him somewhat unique

                    If thats what he's trying to do...its really not working for him.

                    Floyd beats people up while talking shit...imagine if Floyd was talking shit to Gatti and then Floyd wins a decision that everyone thought Gatti won. His villain role would not have worked.
