    IMO Marquez has always been slow and stationary tho..It's part of his style,he allows you to get ya punches off and then he comes forward and throws counters..He's never been hard to hit,and he's never been a mover..

      I thought Roach's comments were strange about Bradley being damaged and his speech sounding terrible, then Marquez looking like a bum whose weight training is off. What I did find interesting is that when they asked Manny to rate Bradley's power on a scale of 1-10, while people around him were joking around saying 0 and 1, he really thought about it and said 6. Hmm.

        notice how u brought up the barber shop LOL, im talking everyday random people here. go out and talk to a random american stranger and chances are he will not know who bradley is and mikey or maidana but go to a random mexican and talk to him about maidana and mikey and most likely he'll know who those guys are but wont know who bradley is.

        and this is all it takes, because now that mexican could go and talk to another person and pass on what he knows and the word gets around as compare to the american that doesnt know anything about boxing or bradley they cant go up to the next person and start telling them about bradley, etc. therefore bradley is not more known. im basing this solely on causal fans and regular every day type people who is not in the boxing world all the time.

          to me he thought about it to give bradley more props, it looks like he was gonna go with what the people around him was saying as u can see him smiling then he thought about it and prolly felt it wouldnt be right to say 0 or 1 like what the people is telling him so he said 6 which is slightly above average "5" so it wouldnt be like he was putting bradley down.

            Bradley has been in high profile fights..I say a barbershop cause you'll get a more mix of people there(where I go anyway),it's not only Mexicans or Blacks or Whites..It's just people,most who are casual fans..You think more people will know Garcia or Maidana who have not been in any high profile fights,then Bradley who was not only in a high profile fight,but one with all the controversy of the first Pac meeting..You have got to be kidding bro..Neither are more known then Bradley by masses..Noway..

              I agree with a 6,I mean look at Prov face..Pac did not run in on Bradley(even tho Bradley had hurt feet),even when you look to most of Bradley's fights..He stuns and stops opponents in their tracks..Bradley is no power puncher,he's no Paulie M either..I think Peterson has above average power Alexander as well,I think Bradley punches harder then both of them..

                Give Roach more credit then that,if Roach really felt it was a 0..He'd say it..I don't believe he's foolish enough to believe that for a sec..

                  because bradley has been in more high profile fights doesnt mean jack shiiet if bradley didnt put on an amazing performace to catch the causals attention. heres an example, i work at a place that is filled with filipino's. when theres a pac fight coming up and the filipino's at my work is talking about it to the other non filipino people about manny fighting bradley again, they usually will reply back with who? is he that black guy that manny already beat, etc. im not arguing with u that bradley is not more well know in the boxing world, im talking about every day random people here, people thats not into boxing.

                      if u let someone punch u over and over, it'll start showing. we're talking one punch type power here. bradley doesnt have the punch that will make his opponent stop for a sec like damm what was that. if i let a 6yr old kid smack my face 50 times, it'll show but that doesnt mean that kid is strong LOL.
