Comments Thread For: Diaz: Tim Bradley Will Fight Smarter if There’s a Rematch

[Mr. Philadel]

Bradley had no business fighting the fight he fought...he must've thought he would be able to bully the dude since he was the one coming up in weight....Ortiz put it on Berto in his first dance at 147....Ghost beat Aydin in first dance at 147....and Provo came ever so close to upsetting Bradley in his first dance at the weight....WWs better stop sleeping on these dudes coming up from smaller weights....Paulie will be the next victim after Broner beats him

Tim has the ability to pitch a shutout against this dude IMO....in a rematch I bet thats just what'll happen

"Everybody's got a plan until they get hit." Mike Tyson.

I think Provodnikov has something to say about what'll happen in the ring in a rematch. I can't imagine Bradley intended to fight such a war before 1st fight. I recall Prov coming forward relentlessly and catching him with countless clean shots.

Bingo. He will definitely try and box more.

Bradley underestimated Ruslan big time.... getting a gift decision against Pac got to his head

[B-Bomber]

Bradley's best D when he gets hit = trading. That was the main reason why he took a beating. Everytime Ruslan hurt him he would go into exchange mode, instead of clinching or moving away. Y'all can blame Bradley and discredit Ruslan all you want but Ruslan had something to do with the way Bradley fought.

I actually agree with most of what you say.

It's true, Bradley would trade instead of clinching or moving when hurt. And it was his mistake.

I don't discredit Ruslan, wonderful display, what I'm saying is that Bradley showed that he can outbox Provodnikov pretty easily, even on weak knees.

WE have to get a rematch. That fight was way to close and may the best man win.

I think it was in the Abregu fight you can see him going nuts exchanging. Also in the Alexander fight.

I think of Bradley as Khan, they can box but have their moments where they like to exchange or like to throw punches when hurt. And that's their downfall.

I hope there is a rematch and Bradley fights just to win so that poeple could see what he did just for fans

[brick wall]

bradley wanna make a statement in the first fight. he thought he can use his handspeed to outslug and tire down provo but he got a dose of reality just in the first round. the russian, even though moving up in weight, was willing to take 2 just to dish 1 of his power punches.

bradley's problem is he needs a lot of leverage to throw his punches and have at least a respectable power to it. he needs to swing long and wide that negates his handspeed that's why provo was able to sneak in his power punches in between bradley's punches. if bradley decides to box, his punches turns to pitty pats.

Now, there's a fight that has become much more appealing: Bradley vs. Khan.

I remember the pre fight pictures, the oohs and ahhs and drug alegations related to Bradley's physique. He needed every bit of that conditioning to survive Ruslan and I can translate what is called "smart boxing", partly as smart training and living right. Bradley won this in the gym and it was so close that missing one day of training, or one night of partying could have made the difference. Great dedication and self control.
