Dwyer: Bradley should retire now, not ruin legacy like Roy Jones

[Larry the boss]

What legacy? He's 30 years old and has never been the man to beat in a weight class. He still needs to put in like 3-4 more years of work to be considered a HOF'er. His fights with Pacquiao and Marquez showed he's good enough to fight close fights with ATG's, but can he really beat them?

Exactly....the man is just starting..but he did clearly beat Jmm although it was a 40 year old Jmm

[-PBP-]

Huh? You thought JMM beat Bradley? I thought Timmy clearly beat Marquez, but I thought Pac beat Bradley. I've only saw both fights once, though

LOL. It was a clear victory. There are just some stubborn ****s that refuse to give the guy credit for anything. 90% of the press had him winning.

His marketability is at an all time high, he's top 3-5 on every relevant, impartial pound for pound list and has entered the peak of his career.

His resume is as good as it gets at this point in his career and he's got nowhere to go but up.

Bradley has 4 kids including a new born baby girl. He's not retiring any time soon.

Yeah I thought Tim beat JMM without a doubt. I didn't even watch the scorecards being announced because I thought he won for sure. It is true that I see a lot of people not giving Bradley credit and honestly when I saw the Pac fight live and Bradley got the decision (I thought Pac won) I was pretty pissed and didn't think him-Pac should rematch because I thought Pac won and most people knew who really won, but I became a huge fan after his fight with Prov. I've got nothing but respect for Timmy

Financially maybe, but legacy-wise he could go down with a loss.

I could see feeling that way about an immediate rematch. But after clearly beating Marquez and winning a close one over Ruslan I think he fought his way back into a rematch with Pac.

I think the Ruslan win will be one of those hindsight W's that starts to look better as time passes.

So what's wrong with loosing when your competing at the highest level?

[Check]

Ignorant statement because no one gives him credit for the Pacquaio win. If he rematches and wins then maybe you could consider it but it would be foolish to do that at this stage of his career because he has just started getting paydays. If he can get a pac rematch and win the big paydays will come. His career has a long way to go financially and legacy.

It's not a matter of that.

Playing devil's advocate, in the future a boxing historian could look at Bradley's record and see that he's beaten two legends Pacquiao and Marquez. That's puts him at the pinnacle. If he loses to an inferior opponent, his legacy takes a hit.

[BIG GUNZ]

He still has rematches with Pacquiao & Ruslan to do yet. Also, after his contract with Top Rank is finished he can possibly get the Mayweather fight in 2015.
