Comments Thread For: “Fighting Words” — Tim Bradley Finally Gets His Respect

[loui_ludwig]

Not exactly getting respect cuz he still lost to Pac.

I think Marquez edged it or a draw, damn if it was a draw I would have won 4000 euro. Marquez was landing the cleaner shots, Bradley was jabbing and picking points. Lederman needs to buy glasses or retire. CHeck out the best weight loss program in Holland currently and is ready to take over the world your-perfect-health.com

Lederman already has glasses. You don't expect a man to buy more than one pair in a lifetime do you...?

The judges made it a split decision when clearly Tim decisively beat Marquez. The 116-111 score by Patricia Jarmon was the only one to make sense.

Khan???? relevant to who or what?

You could put Khan in the wring by himself to fight himself. In the later rounds he could deliver a blow on himself by the 7th round that staggers or knocks himself out!
Timothy Bradley came to fight, the judges make the decisions and ruled he beat Pac. A fighter shows up, that is his job, what fighter anyone knows that can get beat up like Rocky while still swinging on instinct and still win/ Anyone else Marquez would have fought, he would more schooled them!

Kudo's to Tim Bradley!!!! And yes, I thought the Pac fight with Tm could have been called a draw and I think Tim did better in that Pac fight than he gets credit for.

He's beaten some up-and-comers soundly, but that's it.

I read he beat 9 former world champions.

That's all fine and good but sooner or later, he will have to face someone who is his age, of champion status, and hungry.

Devon Alexander, Lamont Peterson?

Broner vs Bradley... Now that's a fight I'd like to see! If Bradley can beat Broner, then I might have to give him props. But Broner has the power, speed and skill set to upset Bradley in a big way. This is a fight which should put Bradley where he belongs, at the bottom of the list Broner on the other hand, would instantly be propelled to star status. Bring it on! Just leave the hair brushing home; it looks a little gay.

The jury is still out on Bradley. I thought Marquez would beat him, but he didn't. However, Bradley, who is ten years Marquez's junior, SHOULD have beaten him soundly, yet the decision was split. That doesn't bode well for Bradley. The reason he has not and may never get the respect he thinks he deserves is clear; he doesn't soundly and decisively beat any of the top fighters he faces. All of these big fights end in controversial decisions. He's beaten some up-and-comers soundly, but that's it. Provodnikov gave him absolute hell, yet was virtually unheard of before that fight. The Pacquiao victory was the biggest gift he ever got, and has propelled him to big-name status. He has yet to face an undisputed champion (Pacquiao excepted?) who is in his prime. Some people give Bradley props for his will power inside the ring and clean lifestyle outside of it. That's all fine and good but sooner or later, he will have to face someone who is his age, of champion status, and hungry. That will be the fight which truly defines what Bradley is made of. Until then...I still don't believe he's the man.
