    Pre Khan wouldve lost to a Pre Bradley and a now Bradley.

    The best sentence that David has written in years was the last in the 10 count. It seems that the first few of the 10 were just continuations on the same subject. I'd thought that each number was to have been about a different subject and item of news. I suppose in the article, he rehashed all the news about the Bradley win.

    Well...Bradley deserves a boost, he's one of the few fighters who can be a role model for youth today. Honest, sincere and straightforward.

    I have 100% respect for him. That was a fantastic display of skills he showed last night. He was in the zone and better than I remember seeing him in the past.

    by David P. Greisman - Even in a sport in which the phrase “undisputed champion” exists, rare is there any conclusion without some amount of contention.

    That’s no surprise, not in a sport where fights can be decided on subjective scoring and inconsistent interpretation of the rules, and where the opportunity to earn significant money or challenge for a world title is as dependent on relationships with promoters, networks, managers and sanctioning bodies as it is on skill and talent.

    And so prospects, contenders, world titleholders and even some undisputed champions will be described as overrated or overhyped or dirty or boring or limited. People will say that they are ducking certain other fighters and insist that they will soon be exposed as a fraud.

    There will be those, then, who still don’t believe in Timothy Bradley despite his split decision victory over Juan Manuel Marquez this past Saturday. There will still be questions and doubts and flaws worth mentioning.

    He’s undefeated, but there is one battle he can’t win. He will never win over everyone.

    He’d learned that through his years of accomplishments.

    There was the title win at junior welterweight over Junior Witter five and a half years ago, followed by a successful defense against Edner Cherry and victory in a unification bout with Kendall Holt. Yet there also were the knockdowns Bradley suffered against Holt, one at the beginning of their fight, the other at the end. [Click Here To Read More]
