Didn't realize Tim Bradley's resume was this deep.

    He was certainly one of the Top 140 fighters when Bradley beat him.
    I'm sorry, I read your post wrong. I had thought you said one of the top JWW's of ALL TIME. LOL my bad.

      Kotelnik made it a decent but ugly fight but Alexander beat a top guy very convincingly. Next.

            That was one of the few times you can call a genuinely disgraceful corrupt robbery.
            Except he didn't. One of the great myths of boxing. Bradley swept the second half of the fight with boxing ability.

            The fight was close by any objective measure.

            Bradley successfully tamed Pacquiao's aggression in the second half.

              No way. 146 out of 147 experts called it a draw or a Pacquiao win. Bradley did nothing with Pacquiao and won maybe 4 rounds if you were looking for rounds to give him. I personally scored it 9 rounds to 3 and one was too close to call so i gave it to Bradley.

                A draw means the fight was close dude. I never said bradly won, I scored it a draw, it was a close fight and in no way the kind of Pacquiao blowout people make it out to be.

                The problem is that Pacquiao's won rounds were much more impressive than Bradleys won rounds so people have this visceral "PACMAN DOMINATED" reaction instead of actually counting rounds and realizing it was a very close fight.

                  Pacquiao beat Bradley easily and barely broke a sweat. Gave him 9 clear rounds.

                    Alexander hasn't made it to the top of any division. Who did he beat for those titles? It's like saying Senchenko made it to the top of the Welterweight division

                    How did Kotelnik make it an ugly fight? By repeatedly landing straight, crisp clean shots?

                    Convincingly? The only convincing thing about that fight was that Kotelnik won.

                      Kotelnik clearly won the fight.
