    Actually, he gave Bob the look as if to say "I tried" just before they announced the scores and also look at his surprised expression when they did. Lastly, when HBO asked him if he thought that he won, he replied that he'll take a look. Nope he didn't think that he won. I believe that he thinks that he can win, especially in a rematch. I also believe that he can win legitimately. But as for him thinking that he won right after that fight, no way he did.[/QUOTE]

    good point, i also notice that. and the last part is also correct. when asked about the fight bradley said he'll have to go back and watch the fight over. whty would u say anything like this if u felt u won??

      Second, do you think for one second that Showtime hasn't forecasted a model that includes the possibility of Mayweather fights doing less than expected, say 800-900k? Every corporation does that. Trust me, they'll be fine.
      Really because his paycheck was exactly the same for Guerrero as it was for Canelo right?...no he won't be making as much...there is a wideeeeee gap between $50 million and $100 million and Khan isn't getting him to $80 million, nor is Garcia, Hell not even Broner will...so he can settle for that which is fine and a ton of money or he can go for the most money...afterall most people here love to harp on how its all about the money/ppv these days..well since it's business first..the smart business is to get the most money you can for a fight. But hey that's just me and my opinion.

        I felt it was a closer than the HBO commentators aka Wapakman cheerleaders articulated throughout the telecast.

          Kellerman was totally unfair with that interview tho,the only way for Bradley to respond was to become completely belligerent..So I believe Timmy gave the best answer he could to the hostile environment he was met with after fighting 12 rds of boxing..People make it seem like this stuff is easy,let me fill ya in,it's not..Oh and as far as the highlighted..Please show so called look..I'm calling bull shhit on that one..Oh and btw,like I said Bradley had his hands raised when the official result was read..He thought he won that fight..

            The point is - his paycheck is $45m at the lowest, regardless. And he's already proven that he can do huge numbers without Manny.

            Look, 475k isn't going to get Manny anywhere near an equitable split. So unless he's willing to open up his books and prove otherwise, he's not getting anything more than Cotto money.

                Bradley does not look like a fighter who thought he loss,he looks like a fighter who understood the fight was close..

                  Rome, why bother? As far as this board is concerned, he lost 11-1. I'm tired of making the case for him. I know what I saw. And I can't wait for the rematch because Bradley is going to put on a ****ing show.

                    Dunno about 11-1, 9-3 was the average score ringside. Though indeed there were more 11-1s reported than all close scores combined:

                      He clearly lost. There's no way you can find more than 5 realistic rounds for Tim. I rooted for and picked the guy but he didn't win.
