    I'm really confused, where in this video does it sound like they trained to go toe to toe with Provo? Hell, wasn't it Tim who thought he could KO Pac when Joel said that they were gonna outbox him, if she didn't want to talk about it that's cool, but for the writer to suggest that Joel Diaz was training Tim to brawl is very ignorant.
    Here's what that fight showed. Bradley stopped listening to his trainer.

    Do you know why fighters do that? It's because they get bad advice.

    Before, Bradley wanted respect. He considered suicide when he didn't get respect for beating Manny and got threats from casuals.

    Fighting the way Diaz was telling him to fight would not have won him the Provod fight, and he knew that. So he went to war.

    He had a good chance of losing against Marquez when he almost did the same.

    All Diaz would do every fight is threaten to stop fights instead of trusting his fighter's instinct in the ring. That's demoralizing.

    Atlas is 100% motivating. As a fighter that's what Bradley needs. Someone to motivate him, not threaten him. When he's motivated, he fights smart. When he's demoralized, he fights ******.

    Bradley won 4 rounds from that second fight against Manny and didn't start losing until he changed strategy. Again. His injury was caused by his clumsiness and being put in the wrong position to evade Manny's shots.

    All Atlas has to do is ensure Bradley's on the right foot, at the right distance, with the right strategy as taught by Floyd Mayweather, and Bradley's got a very good chance at winning clean this time.

      That's weird, cause most had him winning that fight 8-4 or 7-5, and to be honest, the only rounds he lost, he traded shots with Provo and when he boxed and stayed away from Provo like Diaz was telling, it was easy pickings, even Freddie threaten to stop the fight.

        The blowback from the Pac fight was the reason why Bradley fought the way he did in that fight. We saw in the JMM fight how he outboxed an ATG technician when he had a different mindset.

          Yeah - he was losing early rounds because he wasn't listening to Diaz. That's exactly my point.

          But here's the thing. Bradley didn't get any respect until he went to war with Provod. He even cut an interview saying that "fans want that" (which I don't).

          He got respect for beating Marquez but only because it was Marquez fresh off of KO'ing Manny.

          Nobody's giving Bradley respect for stopping Rios in the first time in Rios' career. Same as with Floyd; the excuse is always "washed up fighter".

          If Bradley beats Pacquiao it'd be the same thing "Manny's washed up" instead of "Yes, Atlas HAS improved this guy and he IS a top fighter who doesn't need to go to war to win big fights".

            Don't know why people hate on Monica so much, she use to pay all the bills back when Tim was a broke bum focusing on boxing. Yeah she had her past and isn't a looker, but not many women believe in you when yo have nothing and are trying to chase your dreams.

                Of course Joel Diaz cared about Tim's well being, they've known each other for years but like I said, what his wife says goes and rightfully so.

                  Sorry, but having a wife as a manager is ridiculous. I mean, does she negotiate with Bob Arum? Shave a couple mil off the top if that's the case! You don't see wives negotiating in NBA or NFL for a reason. Funny, but really not funny. Too bad for Tim.

                      Don't have time to contemplate such outrageous conspiracies. They've got children together and it makes sense she doesn't wanna see him eat too many more punches.
