Comments Thread For: Arum: Bradley's Value Went Up By Choosing To Brawl

[Mr. Philadel]

I know the term exposed is used alot. But Bradley was exposed, his weakness is clearly a guy with speed. It wasn't Pacquiaos punching or boxing skill it was his speed.

And now I see why Bradley ducked Khan, Khan Vs Bradley would have looked alot like Khan Vs Judah, a smaller guy getting beat to the punch all night.

Hurts to say it because I was promoting Bradley to be #1 P4P one day.

Good post^^^^^^^^

To the lady taking notes and trying to create some type of excuse machine....fall back....it was the eye!! cornball

Always monday morning quarterbacks...Bradley fought the fight that he thought worked best for him to get the result he wanted. He was willing to go out on his shield to get it done, there is nothing at all wrong with that. The dude is a world class athlete, with a world class trainer former boxer...these people know what they are doing better than we ever will. Fact is he almost got his KO in the 4th so he was doing something right..he just fought another world class fighter with extensive experience and the ability to adjust and impose his own game plan better.

Bradley almost got a KO? Lmao... Rome is that you? Delusional.

Excellent post dude. Sums it up completely. If Tim had continued to box masterfully and got the win, the Pac fans surely wouldn't be celebrating him.

Would've, could've, should've.

Fact is that once Pacquiao started landing his lead left Bradley had no answer for it. And it started taking the gas out of him. The dude was exhausted and that was due to the shots Pacquiao was landing.

if that was part of his plan....still don't make it right....Pac don't lose brawls, come on now....you gotta set traps and out science Pac...anything else is HIS fight....but you already know this!!

props to Bradley for not fighting the smartest in his biggest fight....happy?

I'm sorry but Floyd couldn't do that, my american friends said that they respect Bradley more than Floyd.

[Pacquiao'd]

i'd think bradley's value went up a bit. let's give him credit for fighting like a real warrior and it's hard to disrespect fighters like timmeh.

if arum, pac or roach says it so will a tard

Bradley was clearly out of his character and with no B, C or D gameplan. He is not a brawler, he doesn't have that kind of power. He's good at a few things, great at none. He doesn't have a signature punch, etc. Whaling haymakers was not going to get the job done. Many of them were wide and pac could see them a mile away. In the first couple of rounds, I think he shocked pac with his gameplan and Manny needed to adjust. Once he adjusted, Tim was done. His copycat tactics did not work. Besides what ko'd manny was a short powerful sneaky right as he was coming forward.

Call it monday morning quarterbacking, hidsight is 20/20, etc... It was clear to me as I watched the fight what was Tim's intentions and he was out of his league, he should have tried the "magic right" incorporated into his fighting style not use it as the main and almost exclusive weapon.

In all honesty, I like Bradley as a person but in no way would I pay to see him fight anyone. He has nothing that he does great. He just fights a boring style. And his stock in no way went up. Now no one will watch him fight. Kind of like Bernard Hopkins.

He was not boring at all in the Pacquiao rematch. And i believe he can beat most guys that he has beaten before with this new style too. Bradley deserves respect as a fighter. He ducks nobody.

[Rome-By-Ko]

I could see why Arum would think this,I don't like what I saw from Bradley in the 2end Pac fight tho..I did not like his mentality at all,I'm all for letting it all hang out(if ya have to)..I really don't believe Bradley needed to do that tho..He really only needed to stick to his boxing and switching back to his aggressiveness from time to time..He had Pac confused in there at times..

After they got caught up and Bradley fell into the ropes something happened..He started backing up,and his legs never looked good again..I'm sure Bradley's stock has rose a bit..So have questions(imo)esp about his mental status..I have no question what kinda fighter Bradley is..He has to get back to being smart tho,and all tho I was very entertain by the last Pac Bradley fight..I thought Bradley could have,and should have been even better then what we saw..

[downklown]

Arum is flat out delusional.
Bradley was a 2nd tier fighter entering the fight with a chance to be a 1st tier fighter with a win. Getting dominated by Manny relegates him to ppv undercard and/or non ppv status. Simply put, their's no way in hell he's getting anything close to $6 million for his next fight.
