    Bradley looked the best in the first fight with trainer Joel Diaz

    He even looked okay in the second fight but lost clearly.

    I had the first fight 6-6, I had him losing the rematch clearly. In this third one I had him winning like 3 rounds and he got dropped twice. Joel Diaz must be shaking his head right now with a big smirk on his face.

        Fighters seem to delude themselves.

        If you've been fighting s certain way for years and you hire a new trainer you aren't going to be a brand new fighter after 1 camp with them.

        It doesn't matter who trains Bradley he's simply no where near skilled enough to beat Pacquaio. He has zero tools that it takes to beat him.

          Bradley think too much in this fight. I had Bradley winning 3 rounds top.

            Well that's not really fair because Bradley has been beat from pillar to post since then. Tims taken some serious damage, hard to compare Braldey today to the prime, undefeated fighter that faced Pac first go around.

            I think I gave Tim 5 rounds last night. Atlas did a good job and I liked the gameplan a lot, probably the most realistic, best approach to beating Pacquiao for a guy like Tim. Manny is just better. No shame in that, but it's true.

              He clearly lost the 2nd one, but at least did better than the third. The first one was his absolute best, it was close, could have gone either way.

                Atlas is a good motivator for sure. I didn't see Bradley winning 5 rounds but I can see which rounds you may have given him and I won't debate over that, I can see a case being made. But the weakness behind his attacks is what makes me reluctant. It's like his lack of power punching versus Marquez. So many people gave Bradley the fight over Marquez, but I had it a draw. JMM outdid Bradley in meaningful punches landed 115 to 86, but Bradley outdid JMM in jabs 82 to 38 and I guess fans hold jabs to higher points scoring than actual meaningful blows. Same dilemma with Canelo vs Trout, Canelo won the fight in meaningful punches category, Trout won the jab contest, so people claim robbery and that Trout shoulda won with his little jabs.

                  Someone needs to teach Bradley how to punch. He hooks his straights and wings his hooks... I mean he's basically an arm puncher.

                    If you had the first fight 6 to 6 you have no business scoring fights. Thank god your not a judge
