Comments Thread For: Tim Bradley: I Really Tried, I Wanted That Knockout!

[TLC8]

You should perhaps read his post for context. The way it reads, indicates that it is what he thought would happen, not what actually happened.

That being said, I had Bradley winning the fight. However my opinion has changed, now that the whiskey and adrenaline has subsided. Have Pacquiao winning 8-4 on my second watch; I still feel that it was a close fight, but Pacquiao, ironically, outboxed Bradley.

I feel that Bradley shot himself in the foot. I wouldn't go so far as to say victory would have been certain if he tried boxing Pacquiao ( as he never looked dominant in the rare occasions that he tried), but he robbed himself of any chance of victory by approaching the fight the way that he did.

Bradley said he tried his hardest; maybe he knows better than you, clown. He was beat by the best, Bradley's words not mine. You climb in the ring and try to take Pacquiao's body shots and find out why Bradley ran out of gas? Bradley had no excuses; why should you???

I have a lot of respect for Bradley after last night, he really tried and fought hard. I will support him!

He was injured.

Man, to quote Mugatu, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

He complained after the 5th he was hurt. Diaz was constantly telling him to fight through it, there's no quitters etc. He said it hurt going back. His calf had gone.

Anybody who has pulled a calf knows it destroys your mobility. You could see how Bradley couldn't balance.

Why is nobody on this forum recognizing this? Everybody is just dissing Bradley who was doing well rounds 1-6 (I had it 3-3 after 6).

After every PAC fight, Bradley has gotten injured. Why? because he has trouble handling PAC's speed and movement.

Broken foot in the 1st fight...and now calf injury. No excuse. He just couldn't handle PAC's movement and speed.

Yeah maybe. But let's first get his response to saying Manny Pacquiao has no killer instinct, Manny doesn't have the fire or the heart anymore; Bradley's words not mine. So now Post Fight, Bradley says he was beaten by one of the best ever. I don't think Bradley was questioned about his previous comments of Pac. Don't let that bald headed fool off the hook to his trash talking that led to getting beatdown once again by Manny Pacquiao. Bradley has always been an idiot.

Go suck your mooma.

By Bradley's own admission he tried going for the knockout, so my belief that he shot himself in the foot isn't off base. Trying to knockout an ATG, when you're not a knockout artist, is a ****** thing to do. As for taking Bradley's word for it, should we now assume that he competed with Pacquiao whilst injured in both fights?

Manny Pacquiao scored a unanimous decision win over Timothy Bradley to regain the WBO welterweight title and avenge a highly controversial loss to the American in June 2012.

Two judges scored the fight 116-112 for Pacquiao, while a third saw it as a 118-110 win for the Filipino. In their previous fight, Bradley was awarded a split decision victory that many observers felt Pacquiao had won clearly.

If Bradley truly tried his hardest he would haev changed his gameplan when he realized it wasn't working.

I am still a fan, but please, don't embarass yourself by lying about it, you basically threw this one away.

Bradley was up going into the 7th round, then for some reason that totally escapes me, he started clowning around -- In a major fight!!! Against Pac-man!!! WTF is wrong with Bradley?!?!?!

He's ******!!!!!

I don't want to hear a single word coming from Bradley going forward about his second fight with Pac. He loss focus, lost his composure, loss his mind and loss the fight, because of pure ******ity!.

I saw it the same way. And by the way I was pulling for Pac

Clowning around is what cost Whitaker the fight against Oscar if you ask me.
