Timothy Bradley is one of the Most Overrated and Lucky Fighters in Recent History

[intoccabile]

But that's the point. People did. He was universally considered the 3rd best boxer in the world behind Mayweather and Ward. Ahead of ***ing Rigo who would have toyed with a stumblebum like Vargas.

Agbeko > Vargas.

Rigo toyed with him. You're 100% right.

Again both of them would be kells second best win. Chavez was beating rios. You know brooks next big bad opponent. This thread is ******ed. He doesn't 12-0 guys so he's overrated?

Keeps deflecting to Brook

So desperate. And did you call Vargas a "champion"?

[LacedUp]

Laced up be like "bruv when do me mate kell brook gonna get respect"

Then call bradley overrated

I think he'd put a beating on Bradley. Maybe next time Bradley will fight the right to face Brook for an actual title as opposed to reject it and fight Jessie Vargas for an interim belt instead.

I've said it before and I'll say it again because I was proved right again last night.

He was fighting Jessie fking Vargas. A guy who wasn't even a good Junior Welterweight and has no power, yet the fight was competitive at times and Bradley got completely buckled by a guy with 9 stoppages. Then to top it off, he gets saved by the referee whilst hurt. If that had happened to any other fighter in a different country, there would be an outrage.

Why is Tim Bradley so highly thought of?? I mean he's a decent fighter, capable of winning world titles but people actually rated this guy as the 3rd best boxer in the world. Based on what?

None of his performances are ever dominant or impressive. You never see Bradley go out there and 12-0 a guy. These last two fights have supposed to been showcases for him and there always manages to be some kinda controversy whereby he makes it's close enough or ***s up to the point where you're left with more questions than answers.

His career as a whole is littered with sheer luck too. He caught Junior Witter shortly after the death of his father and Witter was never that good anyway plus it was a really terrible fight for the vast majority. He fought Kendall Holt after Holt had just won a title via a headbutt against that Colombian kid and got dropped twice in another ho-hum display. Then he beats Alexander in another ugly ass fight after Devon had just been embarrassed in his hometown against Kotelnik.

And still not one of those performances were impressive or dominant. Then he ducks his biggest challenge/payday at 140 in Khan to fight Casamayor. Before he stumbles into a Pacquaio after being about 4th choice on the list and gets one of the worst robberies in recent history.

Then for some reason, after KOing Pacquaio, Marquez turns down a money spinning 5th fight and decides to fight Bradley of all people for far less. Bradley sc****s through again in a fight that I thought could have been a draw.

Finally his luck runs out in the Pacquaio rematch but by that time he's gained enough unwarranted money and exposure to go out and make it on his own as the A-side fighter yet he keeps producing these uninspiring performances.

I seriously thought he would whoop Jessie Vargas last night so I could be like "Ok, he showed he was a level above that kid" but he continues to fail to impress me.

you are right about Bradley but if he was English you would say he is better then payweather

He has a very very good resume, the Provo fight seems to have taken a lot out of him doe.

[paulf]

Brook fans are shook down to their knickers for some reason "never seen him 12-0 a guy" and? It's not easy to 12-0 world champions. You thought tim vs juan coulda been a draw? Yea you're not biased at all. That was an easy 8-4 smh. Vargas would be brooks second best win

Who cares that he got buckled? It was a hail marry that landed. Anybody can get hurt at any time. Pac never even knocked him down give me a break

+1 this **** right. ABSURD post.

Who has Bradley lost to again? That's right.

UK fans embarrassed as **** they talked all that **** on Bradley for blowing off Khan to secure the Pacquiao fight, and than Khan does the EXACT same thing to Brook to try and get Mayweather. Pot meet ****in kettle. Bradley is a beast who grinds out win after win despite a limited set of tools.

Stay salty, bro.

[HanzGruber]

Where did I say Brook was P4P?

A P4P fighter is someone who's excellent and shows a level dominance above others. Bradley doesn't do that.

The worst part about it is he was being inducted into the list on the basis of a robbery.

Absolute joke.

I didn't even mention brook in that post so you rate a guy knocking out a bunch of cans over a guy with a proven resume.

you are right about Bradley but if he was English you would say he is better then payweather

I totally agree!!!
