MMA can't give you what we saw

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

MMA is entertaining when they have exchanges which is probably like 15% of the time , then they hug each other and fall on the floor and start wrestling in tight shorts and that's when I change the channel to Sabado Gigante.

that part is the truth.


he is overrated. he's not a p4p fighter.


he's also ballsy as anybody in the sport and a true warrior. we saw his limitations against provodnikov. i want to see them rematch that fight.

bradley was held up by the ropes more than once, and he was certainly down in the first. i don't care if they call it a slip when he went down initially int he first, when you get back up and fall down again because your world is rocked then it is a knockdown.

I don't think it's fair that you can call him overrated. He is undefeated, is a warrior and even though he's not a KO puncher, still commands the respect of his opponents.

I just want to take this time in between the trolls and fan boys to say that the Bradley vs Provodnikov fight was amazing. One of the best fights I have seen in a long time.

I don't care who you were rooting for, who you think is good or isn't good, that was a display of two warriors. Toe to toe, man to man...holy **** that was crazy.Both men were hurt and Bradley just gained a fan in me, what heart, what chin.

I have all the respect in the world for MMA and it's athletes but only boxing can give you this type of fight. It's the limitations of boxing, the fact you can't wrestle, kick or elbow that gives you these kinds of fights.

This was Micky Ward v Arturo Gatti, this was Rios vs Alvarado, this was the violent aspect of boxing that even family members have to excuse themselves because they can't watch it.

What an amazing ***in fight.....props to both.

I wish I could give you more green K but I can't!

Agreed. He's a B fighter skill wise, a good athlete and has the ability to box when he wants too. But that's not what makes him a p4p fighter. His heart, will, determination and ability to overcome adversity is the reason why he's a 30-0 fighter with a very strong resume. It's the things that can't be worked on in the gym that make Timothy Bradley a special fighter. That's why he's top 10 pound for pound until somebody comes in and defeats him.

Yes, he got a gift decision against Pacquiao but his toughness and determination to win allowed him to finish the 12 rounds, close the fight on a good note and give him the slight chance of squeaking out a victory on the scorecards.
