    Why would his legacy go down with a loss? Would it erase the wins he has collected up until now?

      That's good enough of a resume to retire on, most won't even accomplish anything close to that. It's up to him, it's his livelihood at the end of the day and I wouldn't think any less of him if he did. You always want to go well accomplished, financially set and most importantly with your health intact.

        Dwyer, himself, should have retired from youtube some time ago. He's talked nothing but nonsense for a while now.

        Then has the balls to try and charge money to view some of those videos.

          Retire? Bradley is 30 years old and just out boxed one of the best counter punchers of the last 20 years. The dude isn't jumping up to 168 and fighting Froch man, he is fighting one class above where he started at.

          If anything, Bradley is establishing a bar that all other boxers will be measured against. To be the best, you have to fight the best, you put in the work to get the gold. I just laughed to myself at all the people who swore JMM would ko Bradley and retire him. Well, too bad you guys were wrong and now it seems like people are threatened by him because he is such a wild card...."average boxer", "sloppy", "not really good at anything".............except he is one of the best at winning. You want so bad to bet against him, but if you were smart, you should have learned a long time ago that he is a winner above all.

            Pacquiao, Marquez...if not Floyd who is left? The only alternative opponents are inferior opponents.

              Yeah that had me disgusted. While he'll sometimes make ridiculous statements, I tend to never skip his videos because he actually breaks down styles. Really liked his Broner-Maidana breakdown, pretty much coincided with how I see it going as well.

              One of my favorite boxing heads on Youtube is Beeb, he doesn't upload much though. He's on ThaBoxingVoice though.

                And? Marquez win over Pacquiao is better than any win of Mayweather's win, but why is Mayweather's resume considered greater than Marquez's? Because Mayweather's resume has more depth. Marquez is actually a good example to use because the biggest slight against his resume is a lack of depth, which is the boat Bradley falls into right now.

                At the moment he has a good resume, but collecting wins against other top fighters, even if they're beneath Marquez and Pacquiao, can push it into the great territory.

                  I think the Ruslan win will be one of those hindsight W's that starts to look better as time passes.
                  I agree, not only would a rematch be unfinished business from the first fight but Bradley's picked up two nice wins since they fought as well so from Pac's perspective, it would be a nice win for him if he were to get the W

                    That's ******. Bradley is a young guy making million dollar paydays. Why get out now? He's healthy and in his prime.

                    The name of the game isn't get a coupla wins, make a few dollars, and bail before you lose. There's a such thing as longevity in this game.
