    Would love to see Spence or Thurman stops him. Very good Light Welterweight. Never beat a legit Welterweight Champion.

        Not surprised. He's been off for to Long and if he fought again, he would want one of the top welterweights which I can't see him beating due to such a long layoff. I enjoyed his career and I wish him the best in life

          I thought at the time he was ducking khan, but he made a wise career move, he ignored khan to sign up with top rank and it got him that pacman fight... If it wasnt for that move he Would never have got boxed pacman in his career. Picking pacman over khan? Cant call it a duck. Pacman bigger name, more money... Resulted in a trilogy... Each one had to have been million $$$ pay days, and the marquez fight. Only fight i would like to have seen was bradley v Cotto.

            Top Rank fighters get away with avoiding fighters from other promotions. Shit is ridiculous.
            You never have anything positive to say about any fighter except Mayweather. TM was a warrior and his fights were exciting.

              Boxing is a physically demanding sport, it's very tough on the body, so I don't blame him, but Bradley didn't last very long for a guy who was as good as him. He lasted 12 years.

              These are some guys who fought in Bradley's era and were still top 10 fighters in their last fight.

              Hopkins - 28 years
              Pacquiao - 22 years
              Mayweather - 21 years
              Marquez - 21 years
              Wladimir - 21 years

                The Politics within boxing sucks. So many great matchups that could of happened for him if he were able to fight Haymon fighters. Shawn Porter, Keith Thurman, Danny Garcia, Amir Khan, Errol Spence all great fights that we couldn't and won't be getting, kind of sucks. Especially when we were getting fights, we didn't really want to see like Pacquiao 3 (but it made sense, cos it made money). His resume could of been ever more stacked, had he been able to fight those guys. Really wanted him to go out with a big fight like Miguel cotto, and if he pulled off a win against him it would of probably been his biggest legit win of his career, whilst cementing his legacy. But such is life, the wear and tear of boxing takes its toll eventually and the Ruslan fight in particular he took a lot of punishment, probably shortened his career. Great career nonetheless.

                  The guy said Bradley fought everyone and he didn't cherrypick. That's a lie and I corrected him. What's wrong with that?

                  Should we lie and pretend he was something he's not because he announced his retirement?

                  GTFOH you ****ing imbeciles.

                    Bradley, you were indeed a warrior in the square ring... I doff my hat for you. I cant forget your brutal fight with Ruslan.
