    Bradley vs Chaves full fight



    Very good, underrated fight. Worth re-watching. I scored it 8-4 for Tim the first time I watched it, but all the rounds were close and competitive.

    Kell vs Chaves is a solid fight, don't let the weird Khantards convince you otherwise. Chaves has been very competitive with Thurman and Bradley, albeit in defeat and clearly beat Rios.

    With Kell being a very below par body puncher, I think Chaves goes the distance with him and loses an 8-4 kind of decision. Don't be surprised if this fight is closer than people expect...

    listen man, im no rios fan but that boy was being dirty cause rios was bringing it to him!!!!!

    chavez is dirty,plain and simple!!!!!!!

    It was so clear that the judges had Chaves up on the cards, despite Rios being the 'name' fighter and Chaves having 2 points deducted for doing things we see fighters do and get away with nearly every week.

    So what if he's dirty? This boxing not a game of chess, BHop, Ward, Maidana etc are also dirty.

      Yeah this was a decent fight, it's hardly ever mentioned because 1.) The result was plain wrong, Bradley deserves the victory and no one really wants to dwell on a robbery and 2.) They had Khan vs. Alexander fighting on the same damn night right across the strip, which was a much more intriguing fight.

      That haematoma Bradley got was nasty, I feel that without it we would have seen him put in a more dominant performance.

        Just finished re-watching, scored it 8-4 again, 7-5 at a push, it was a close but clear win for Tim.

          I've watched it 3 times and I had it 8-4 Bradley each time, rounds were close but it was a clear win for Bradley. Chaves' manager is a miracle worker. The fight with Kell itself should be good but doesn't look good when you call out Marquez and Bradley. And Chaves hasn't won a fight in a while.

            Brook is an underrated body puncher. Don't know why Chaves would say something like that.

            You see how his straight left to the solar-plexus took the gas out of Porter in their fight. He's slowed many guys down with the body shots.

            Many fighters who are known as great body punchers like Mike McCallum never even knocked anyone out with a bodyshot.

              Marquez said they didn't want the fight? how's that Brook's fault? His damn knee isn't good and he doesn't want to travel. Nothing they can do.

              This fight was agreed weeks ago. Why do you think it wasn't announced before now?

              My guess is because an offer was made to Bradley.

                It wasn't Chaves who said it, it's my opinion.

                Never seen him throw more than a handful of body punches in a fight. He throws the odd jab and straight right to the stomach, but you don't often see him hooking.

                  Kell would beat any version of Marquez imo, but this version of Marquez would get absolutely shredded. It wouldn't be a competitive fight.

                    Chaves just said exactly the same thing today.

                    Well, it's because he's so big and taller than most of his opponents. But we've seen him throw good body punches vs Senchenko - even in the first round and continuously spear the jab against the solar-plexus vs Porter.

                    As I said, underrated body puncher and Chaves will feel it.
