I never ask a fighter to admit defeat especially immediately after the fight. So Marquez can believe what he wants to but when push comes to shove, he never officially got that 5th division title.
After watching the fight a second time, it really was a close bout with many rounds that depending on each judge appreciation could go either way. I think JMM is going to retire after this fight and even when some haters and/or fans of Pacquiao disagree, Marquez is a sure firs ballot HOF and ATG. Bradley is a solid champ who had the discipline and sticked to the fight plan and never gave Marquez a chance but Tim shouldn't have an undefeated record since he clearly lost against Manny and arguably to Provodnikov.
Reminds of Cotto right after the Mayweather fight. He felt it was a close fight and may have won and spoke on it. I think just like Cotto Marquez will have a chance to re watch the fight and see that he clearly lost a decision this time.
I'm a Marquez fan, but he clearly lost that fight. Bradley controlled the fight and the only rounds Marquez really looked good in were 1, 11, and 12 (until he almost got knocked down). Great career Marquez, but he looked old in the ring against Bradley so it might be time to start thinking about hanging it up. I really don't want him going out like RJJ.
The pictures of JMM the Great at the Pac vs Bradley weigh in are astounding different unless they were tampered with. a poster put them up, you look and compare the arms.
JMM is either getting old now or didn't have the same camp with Memo
I thought with the great new found Power , the first shot from Marquez will put Bradley on chickenleggs.
JMM appeared to struggle with his own legs in keeping up with Bradley.
I was PULLING FOR JMM !!!!!
BRADLEY WON THE FIGHT !!!!!
I like KO's !!! Why have the fight go to the ****** scorecards !????
If anything this set Bradley free and the hate on him by the crowd is WRONG.
I didn't hate Bradley coming away from this fight, I think ARUM ought to just stay out of the WAY and the fight with BRADLEY vs MAY JR take place
