Tim Bradley goes out there and puts in work against any fighter. Much respect.
I think Tim Bradley should retire

he may have beat rusian but lost his career by being bludgeoned and savagely beaten. I do not know what Bradley takes to absorb that beating while looking like Mr America. oh I forgot he is a vegetarianComment

love bradley but he has been taking a lot of punishment. He's one of the truly good guys in the sport and hes proved his mettle and made some good money. I don't want to see him take too many more brutal shots myself. I can see the argument that he hasn't really won any of his last five fights. Even the fights he did probably edge he was on the receiving end of the worse of the punishment...not really a good long term look..
good post......Comment

Why do I need to learn how to score fights when this is somebody else's actual job? Besides, Bradley's fights are difficult to score, in general (look again at his record and you'll see). I begun "to study" Bradley just after his first Pac fight and came to the conclusion that the guy is an actual very talented trickster into the ring.
... Last night, the trickster nearly got tricked by another trickster -- sometimes, that's the beauty of boxing...Comment

i agree that it's debatable that he even won his last 5. Since his Pac "win" he's been pretty contestable fights. I really think they all could of gone either (except the last Pac fight). His style favors judges that see through a amateur lens. He's never seems in control. He puts good combos together, and sets a trap here and there. But he's never in control. He's a tough tough guy, but again I don't think his style is convincing enough for most pro judges. He takes lots of shots, he has zero power (with those amateur arm punches). I don't think its an unfair proposition to suggest he wrap it up soon.Comment

It's interesting how people view fights. Amir Khan looked "amazing" fighting one way against devon alexander, whom bradley beat easily and even managed to stun with his non-power. Amir either threw the same 1-2, 1-2 from the outside or he would lean on devon when in close or hold his head and hit. But hey that's amazing...or just illegal.
While bradley on the same night showed more wrinkle to his game and doesn't get half the credit. He showed much better head movement than Khan, his D was pretty good for most of the fight against an underrated opponent with a good punch. Tim fought on the outside well, then he went inside and fought well, then went back out in the 2nd half with a closed eye and continued to outbox chaves besides the last 2 rounds.
No, he shouldn't retire, he should get more credit however.Comment

He looked good vs a game opponent.
chaves gives everyone a good fight win ornlose. Dirty or not.
He had a draw imo in pac 1. He lost pac 2 after starting well.
The others he beat them fair and square.
All of them
Bring on rios alvarado 3 winner..then shoot for pac 3 or marquez 2 or maidanaComment
