Comments Thread For: Timothy Bradley Comes Clean - And Goes Off!

I don't think he sounded ****** at all.

He's right, dude cut out manger fees and got to save 10% of his purse. He signed with Top Rank and very quietly is the highest paid fighters in the division behind Floyd and Pac.

Amir Kahn sitting at home, begging for a big fight. Bradley already has headlined 3 ppvs.

The guy made some good boxing business decisions. And he always brings it in the ring, can't knock this dude.

He always says dumb shit like IM a grown ass man lol.

"I wanna tell you guys how dumb but really smart I am"
"I'm very intelligent and I'm going to tell you guys why."


"I'm living it right now... I have control of everything that goes around me"
"Everything that's around me doesn't mean anything"

I've always known that he's made smart financial decisions and has provided for his family. He just doesn't articulate himself well at all and comes off poorly in interviews.

the fact that hes correct about everything he said is only going to make the haters more mad

He made a good decision dumping Gary Shaw, but navigating a TR contract w/o a professional manager may cost you more than 10%. And I get how fighters switch up to new trainers to reignite their motivation in training, but Teddy Atlas??!! And I bet he's paying Teddy more than 10% over what he was paying Diaz.

Respect to Tim in doing things how he wants to do things. Hope **** does work out for him cuz I love retired boxers who've made millions keeping & using those millions wisely stories.

Bradley is one of my Favs

But him versus Canelo would be dumb.

Canelo is to big.

It'd be almost as bad as GGG fighting Bradley.

I hope Bradley gets some shots at top WW, and SWW.

LOL, but yea thats a legit concern. Okay your wife is your manager now, but can she get you as much money as a guy who manages as a career? **** man maybe she can for all I know, but it seems like there is more going on than Tim's wife could pickup in a few years.

His purses from the day he signed with TR were pretty damn big, plus I'm pretty sure he got a significant signing bonus. Again, besides Floyd and
Pac, and probably Canelo, there isn't a fighter stateside that makes that has made more $ than Bradley.

And this is a guy who doesn't sell tickets, doesn't have a huge fan base.

As far as Atlas goes, who knows what he's paying him, all fighters have to pay there trainer, I don't see the point in assuming atlas is ripping him off. It's more likely Atlas gave him a deal tbh.

Bradley has had a pretty good career. He has over achieved imo. But he seems to be slipping lately.

Naw man. Bradley fought Ward in the amateurs and to this day Ward says that Bradley was his toughest fight back then. Bradley gives the ginger Irishman a boxing lesson.
