Comments Thread For: Bradley on Khan: I'll Take Peterson's Sloppy Seconds!

Dazed, they're choosing to hide behind what the consensus is and popular opinion doesn't mean squat when one particular fan base, we both know who...used Marquez's "Foot Stomper" as an excuse to why Marquez was successful, that video got about 1 million hits in a day. They were oblivious to the fact that this was a natural occurrence between a righty and a lefty, because they do not watch boxing. I honestly don't give a fuck about their opinion. I get into specifics, rounds, my criteria, they talk compubox and popular opinion.

I know, right? I swear if I hear someone cite CompuBox one more time! And since when did I care about how Dan Rafael scored it? The herd mentality exists among "experts" too. I just know what I saw and I'm perfectly content being a voice in the wilderness.

The thing is, rounds 3,7,8,9 I gave Pacquiao the benefit of the doubt, and those rounds were extremely competitive, I still saw 5 clear rounds Bradley won in this fight. Watching it live I had it close, but still felt Manny suffered the injustice, I no longer feel that way after re-watching it as many times as I did, Tim in my opinion suffered the injustice, I'm glad the three judges didn't have Lederman's scorecard because that would have been a travesty.

Yeah, he get's overrated by some of his fans but that's the case with most fighters and always has.

Khan's a good fighter IMO. He's got a good resume and he's still has many years of his career left. Not many fighters out there have a resume has strong as his at the age of 25.

He's a decently skilled fighter who is lucky to have his size and athleticism. I don't see the versatility or the survival instincts to call him a good fighter, his defense is almost as bad as Juanma's too. He does have heart and he is willing to face everyone, that I can give him but if he doesn't patch up some of the many holes to his game, then I strongly doubt he does anything at 147.

Yup I agree. Some of those rounds were hard to score. And there were a couple I felt like I gave Manny the benefit of the doubt in. The truth is, there are a lot of rounds where he didn't do much. What I don't understand is, if Bradley's punches were feathers and Manny's so powerful, why did Bradley dominate the championship rounds then? He toyed with Pacquiao in the 12th it's quite interesting to see. I'm surprised the judges gave Bradley the benefit of the doubt in some of those rounds. That was my only shock that night. Lederman's card was business as usual.

Bradley landed well to Pacquiao's mid section, something Cotto failed to do. Tim was definitely more versatile with his attack to the body, I think that's what allowed him to sweep the championship rounds. With Manny slowing down at this rate, Bradley should win the rematch.

Agreed. I think Bradley has more to give in a rematch. I'm sure Top Rank is aware of this as well.

Lets be honest... he wouldnt get 10ppv buys on his name alone... its just the truth.. i know its bitter and it hurts to all bradley 1 or 2 fans.

Look rookie, it's an unspoken rule that people with less than 6 months under their belts and no avatar get treated like last weeks garbage. People with less than a month get the ban treatment......get it in gear or get to stepping.

[Devils Advocate]

I'd rather see this than a Pacquiao rematch

I'd like to see a rematch, I think the second fight will end in a knockout or at jeast be a real war!

[PUTemUP]

The truth is that neither did crap in the fight. It was boring, no action. And Bradley's dome Is getting bigger by the day as he thinks he really won. He wants another big payday even if he loses he still wins in the bank. Arum is shafting them both.
