    A great win for Tim but lets not forget he fought a fighter that does not belong at that weight. And Thurman beats Abregu easily. But if Tim and Thurman fight I got Tim winning this fight. Thurman might be a big puncher but I don't see him landing repeatedly on Bradley. Tim has more experience and skill wise is ahead of Thurman, whom we yet haven't seen get tested yet.

      1. Robbery against Pac
      2. Split decision against JMM

      3. Out on his feet vs Provodnikov and won a close decision.

      Again he hasn't done anything impressive just went 12 rds. and barely survived vs Provodnikov, was not impressive in any of the other 2 wins which one should really be a loss(Pac) I don't even know how you can dispute it or bring it up as an accomplishment!
      Funny how you say robbery vs PAC and SD vs Marquez. At least be honest with yourself. If it was a robbery then Marquez was a clear and dominate decision.
      Bradley didn't impress you in the providnokov fight? How can anybody be "out on there feet" and still win a fight. That's like Stevie wonder driving a car.

          Provodnikov fight was the best and most exciting fight that I've seen Bradley in, but yes he was out on his feet more than once, was surprised the ref didn't stop it. At that it was an awesome fight but Bradley was on the receiving end, I give him props for finishing on his feet(although he went down at the end and that first knockdown didn't count but had him flopping all over the place).

            You know I'm a fan of Marquez and I don't have a problem admitting that Tim won that fight, don't know about dominating but it was a clear win for Tim and I can't even see why some posters here try to argue otherwise. But at the same time that win Tim got against Manny was one of dumbest decisions of our time. Not for lack of competition but the overall magnitude of the event left a bad taste with most viewers.

            Now that Provo fight was something else. Tim is a bad motherfcker. Any other fighter would have quit that night but Tim kept at it and got an impressive win that night. He was something else that night and I thank both fighters for showing us what they are made of.

              I love both these fighters. 'One Time' is on the up and Bradley is established. Bradley is one of a small group of fighters whose crediblity would be enhanced by a lose. The Provodnikov fight was a draw at best. Bradley boxed well and gave Ruslan a lot to think about. But whenever Provodnikov let his hands go, Bradley was wobbled and looked out on his feet in several rounds. Taking a knee in the last round confirms Bradley shouldn't have won despite a good performance.
              Thurman showed against Diego Chaves all the qualities of an elite fighter. Chaves is a technical gifted, hard hitting puncher\boxer. Who asked plenty of question of Thurman and seemed to nullify him for most of the fight. I say 'seemed' because Thurman made adjustments throughout the fight. By the time that crushing body shot dropped Chaves, he had dropped his punch output significantly and was unable to deal with Thurman's lateral movement.

              If a Bradley v Thurman fight is made, Thurman would have to drop Bradley multiple times or get the K.O. in order to win. Bradley for whatever reason is a protected fighter, where decisions are concerned. Bradley can obviously get a UD or SD and I can see why the majority opinion favours it, but I sincerely believe Thurman is a special talent and should be afforded the nod against Bradley.

                I'm taking Bradley by decision. If he magically beat Pacquiao by decision, there's no way Thurman can beat him on the cards and I don't think he lands the bomb on a guy like Timmy.

                  Oh ok. I was just making sure.

                  I like Abregu but Thurman would give him the Chaves treatment. Would outbox him and stop him.

                    With a competent ref and judges Bradley wouldn't had won the Provodkinov fight. Even Stevie Wonder would see that.
