      Interesting how floyd fans are such big fans of maidana now boasting about his near victory over amir khan, when just less then a year ago he was nothing more than a "face first brawler" leading up to the broner fight..

          There is a saying that goes like this "Imitation is the best form of flattery", and judging by you sig "the many team" I would say you are flattered by Mayweather.

Pac's popularity grew because he was marketed as the man who could dethrone Mayweather. Pac has never been looked at as the man. And that is completely evident with the lack of disgust of his choice of opponents. Mayweather is regarded so highly that when he fights champions and guys off the P4P list he is called a cherry picker. Pac fights Brandon Rios and Chris Algeri and people justify it.
              This right is pure real real sht. No wonder why you are in red too.

                I wonder if the TS' popularity will increase in spite of being repeatedly sodomized in his own thread.

                  Let's do a comparison.

                  Marcos Maidana facebook (verified page) 1,226,076 likes vs Tim Bradley facebook (verified page) 51,192 likes.

                  Marcos twitter (verified account) 253k followers vs Tim Bradley twitter (account isn't even verified smh) 62.9k followers.

                  What happened, why ain't tim bradley a "hot ticket" after two fights with pac? Chino don't even speak english and he is a way bigger star than Timothy.

                  It looks like Chino's days as the B side are over..
                  Just YouTube his trainer Joel Diaz and in his interview he will give you the straight answer and he doesn't hold back or pull any punches either.

                    Maidana's balls to the wall style is fan friendly. Tim's style isn't nearly as fan friendly.

                    Tim's the better boxer, though.

                      Fighting a popular fighter doesn't make you popular. Maidana is a crowd pleaser with his attacking style and great punching power and he gets KOs all the time. Bradley is not a puncher and fans can't look forward to him knocking out his opponents. Also Bradley needs to fight a hell of a lot more often. He fights less often than even Pacquiao and Mayweather. He averages about one fight every 10 months and that is not enough to help your popularity. Fans forget about him because he is doing nothing too much of the time. He is in his late prime and he should try to fight at least 3 or 4 times a year like GGG. I like Bradley but I doubt he will ever be that popular.
