    So tell me, who the hell has prov beat? And tell me about my agenda when I've been one of bradley's staunchest supporters from day one contrary to the recent hype train that's built around him. There were very few of us. Reed, Mathed, Rome, PBP, BoJangles, Dom(Dr. Tenma) and a few others. But now all of a sudden I supposedly have agenda. Prov shouldnt have ever had that close of a fight with Tim. I personally think it was ring that more than anything and that still doesnt make me think highly of prov. He's a good fighter. But there is tons of talent around 140 and 147 and he isn't up there.

          Even if u count his performance over Bradley as a win(which I don't) u can't then turn around and use that ad a resume booster for Bradley. Doesn't really work sensibly.

              how did he not win? he knocked him down 4 times. clearly. because the ref "missed" them they didn't happen? lol! bradley flies into the ropes twice and they aren't knockdowns, new rules! ropes can you hold you up if you are a-side. another time he eats canvas so hard that he falls down twice, but prov touched him while he was falling no knockdown!

                I have been on the tim bradley bandwagon since 2005,, I have read about him when he was 4-0,, watched him develop on shobox, saw him go overseas and beat witter for his belt,, watched when JLC missed weight and deprived a young bradley of having a break out fight,,

                Bradley is my guy

                  Lol. U are still missing the point of the argument. But some of what u said is true. With that said, the ref didn't call those knofkdowns and if he did who knows how the fight would have changed. U can't assume anything. For all intents and purposes, Tim pulled out the win. He looked like Crap imo. Never seen him look that bad. I'm sure it was ring rust tho.

                    Take Pacquiao off the list, and it's pretty much what most people judge Bradley on - a pretty decent resume
                    100% agree.
