I like Tim as a fighter, I may not agree with some of the things he's said, but I completely agree with you. Last night he was hit with some shots early in the fight that he never fully recovered from, and yet he fought through it and put in some really good work. Those two put on a helluva show.
I'm also gonna say something that might well rub some people the wrong way. I think Tim Bradley deserves more support from boxing fans, and perhaps his fellow countrymen. That crowd didn't look great for that matter and weren't very respectful either. I see people give a guy like Adrien Broner a lot of attention for all the wrong reasons. Broner's a fantastic fighter, but Bradley's putting in some real work against some real competition and not getting half what's due him.
It's beyond whether he should have or shouldn't have gotten a certain decision (there's really only like 4 or 5 good undefeated fighters that you probably can't argue a loss for anyway, unless someone wants to put out a fight I didn't see on Canelo, Trout, Rigo, GGG, Ward's resumes). Anyways I'm just saying the dude deserves some respect for consistently fighting some good competition.
