Comments Thread For: Tim Bradley Announces His Retirement From Boxing

No way. He's not even old.

Certainly not a HOF'er, IMO.

Who knows, but lesser fighters have gotten in.

[Raonic]

Would've liked to see him vs Cotto/Khan, even if he is over the hill.

But I'm sure being in so many wars is a big reason for retiring.

A great warrior and a great human being. I can't help but feel this decision also had to do that people never really liked him. If he had a legion of fans cheering him on, giving him respect for his professionalism and work ethic. But he never really got that respect. Not even after "beating Pacquiao" good for him, he will soend his time with people that actually love him and appreciate him. The truth is he is still a great fighter in great shape. He is just not there mentally but like I said... because everybody seemed to always be against him. Must have been hard

I agree with this. Not much, if anything, to dislike about this guy inside or outside the ring, yet he never did seem to get the respect he earned. The Pac win really seemed to hurt him. He was an excellent fighter and showman in my eyes.

A computer screen can take that type of talk. If it was my face instead of that screen though, you'd end up on floor unconscious.

You're just some troll who pays idolatry to men you wish you were.

He lost to Pacquiao.

What do the history books say? All that matters. Manny LOST!

JMM was way past his best.

Excuse. Again, he was fresh off putting Manny to sleep, so what's that make Manny?

Doesn't come close to Wards resume.

Besides Kovalev, name a top level fighter Ward has beat OUTSIDE of the Super Six. You won't. His resume is absolute garbage and he's overrated to hell.

Done.

So the super 6 doesn't count now? You're a ****ing mong.

Bradley's resume is nothing special. A robbery win and a close win over a way past prime JMM is all that's worth noting on his resume.

If all Ward had was the win over Kovalev it'd still be better than anything on Bradley's resume.

Timothy Bradley always carried with him a warrior's spirit inside of the ring. Once that bell sound he left it all in the ring with him. He was a true champion in the purest sense of the word and will be missed. So good luck champ and thanks for all the memories! In addition, here's wishing you the best in all your future endeavors!

Say what you want about Arum, but he took care of Tim. Got him big PPV money. Good fights and now provides him with a cozy retirement commentating job.

When I want to hate on Arum I think of Tim Bradley. I then dont hate him as much LOL

Damn you stay trolling. Way past prime? JMM just knocked Pac out cold less than a year prior

Good for Bradley. One of the true good guys in boxing and a class act. Wish him nothing but the best.
