    Floyd will always be remembered for five things: cherry picking his opponents (waiting out their prime years before stepping up to the plate), being the richest boxer of all time, being a closet gay, being a closet PED abuser, and never living up to his full potential.

    He will never be thought of as "TBE", and this will forever haunt him.

        You dudes claim she wanted to take control of his career to somehow ruin him and bleed him dry when he has made more money over the past 2 years than at any point in his career. I'm guessing she is going to up and leave now with her three kids and support them by herself and take what she can from Tim?
        Wow quite the pro-fat wife tirade there. All I'm mainly saying is I feel like Bradley isn't gonna enjoy his money cuz he's not gonna be mentally there. He's punch drunk just waiting to happen I feel. And even fat girls find a broke 20 something guy with potential more appealing than a well off stuttering, wonky 50 something guy when they can just take half or more of his $ & go **** random dudes half their age. I predict within 10 years Tim's wife will be single & one of the girls on some Overweight Ex-Wives of Miami type show.

        Just make sure that that Panda in your sig gives Tim a job when he needs it and gives Meldrick Taylor a raise too because he says that Panda is a right schitty boss.
        I don't get people who bring sigs into discussions, but okay I'll make sure the "Panda" is aware of your stance about his job getting capabilities. I'm sure the Panda will have a healthy rebuttal for you soon.

            If he beats Rios he can potentially unify with brook, fight crawford, postol, maybe khan. Like others said he's also making alot of $

              ... actually, Kell Brook is the most established champion at 147 (assuming that we're saying that Mayweather doesn't count).

              By the end of the month, he'd be three title defenses into his title reign, with the appearance of being good enough to basically beat every welterweight in the sport.

              Bradley is only champion because the WBO never intended to make Mayweather champion, and because he beat a fighter (Jessie Vargas) who seems to always luck himself into catching the break.

                    I don't have a problem with trying to keep money in the family, but when it comes to boxers and their spouse they have to be careful, Mosley is paying dearly for making his ex-wife his manager during his career, you can make your brother,sister, mother, father, uncle your manager, but making your wife your manager is dangerous because the moment things don't work out for the two of you she gets to take almost everything away from you, why? Because she would be adjudged to be managing everything in your career from the home to the kids to your finances.
                    The one caveat is that Shane Mosley's ex-wife wasn't starving with him, while Tim Bradley's wife was. Unless Wikipedia is inaccurate, Mosley got with Jin in 2002, over two years after that first De La Hoya fight; there relationship was what it was, but I'm fairly certain that Mosley was flashing when Jin came along.

                    Mosley's mistake was trusting his future with Jin; no idea how their relationship worked out or the condition she's in, but if things were good and he trusted his affairs with Shane Jr's mother (Shane Jr is 24, putting his birth back to when Mosley was still a promising amateur at 20), Shane would've been fine.

                    If you look back at most other relationships/partnerships, where both parties started from nothing together and built something, those tend to be the most solid and, as long as everyone respects everyone, seem to end up with the least amount of issues.

                      He will be thought of as more of a man than Floyd will. All the shenanigans through out his career, the false retirements, the legitimacy of the drug testing, the potential payoffs around every corner, legacy forever ruined. Tim will be remembered as a man of the people while Floyd will be remembered as a fraud.
