  • Was Bradley vs Marquez to you guys boring?

    A lot of people here in the NSB said it was boring. For me it wasn't. It was seeing the masterclass game plan of Timothy Bradley against Marquez that kept me on my feet on that fight. There were almost little to no hugs in that fight and Bradley kept on capitalizing Marquez's mistakes to the point that Marquez is so frustrated that he stuck his head out and makes a funny face to Bradley out of his frustration which to make things worse, Bradley sucker punched him in that round, at round 5. LOL that was funny.

    To me I don't think it was boring, it was seeing the sweet science of boxing at it's cleanest. No hugs, No low blows, just pure hit and not get hit from TB.

    It was a decent fight.

    Bradley was hurt in the fight with Provodnikov so he wasn't agressive. He almost dropped JMM.

    The Mexican said he was robbed.

      Kind of? And I say that as someone who loves watching both guys fight. Bradley's gameplan wasn't thrilling, and Marquez wasn't able to do a ton about it, so the action was sparse and the sweet science of it wasn't very sweet. It was just a case of a good, athletic fighter taking advantage of Marquez's struggles with athleticism and the fact he isn't a welterweight.

      Didn't make for a good fight, no matter how happy I was for Bradley to win.

              Marquez always had troubles with boxers who uses movements.

              He's effective against brawlers like Manny Pacquiao, Juan Diaz.

                I likes Bradley's performance. He did what he had to do against a counter-puncher who can't fight very well on the front foot.

                And Bradley needed to fight smart, especially after the Provodnikov fight. He did just that.

                  Yeah I thought it was boring, Bradley fought Marquez conservative and was very defensive.

                  Too much back-peddling from Tim (correct me if I'm wrong but Max Kellerman even told him to his face that he got on the bicycle) and just peppering the jab.

                  He stuck to the game plan but it was boring. I like to see boxers go toe 2 toe and duke it out like the old-school cats did.

                  Charlo-Williams is a good example. Loma-Walters is even better, Lomachenko the master class, pure-boxer disarmed the killer/puncher without running.

                    that fight show me that there's other layers to Bradley's game..he was the master boxer against a guy who i thought would humiliate him in the IQ department.
