‘You know, I don’t wanna be in here fighting for a paycheck. You know, I have my legacy. I’ve done it. I don’t wanna be in here and take that type of punishment anymore. I don’t think I can.’

i can respect this!!

IMO, he owes us fans at least 1-2 more brutal bloody wars. Do it for us.

Bradley needs to be thanked for his warrior mentality x100... I know that Provodnikov fight took alot out of you and was never the same you still fought on and for that you are a TRUE Warrior but also still smart enough to call it quits and enjoy the rest of your life!

Tim saw pacquiao's time up now he wants to go out on his own terms which is great. Hey Timothy Bradley, you know Jeff Horn won but you don't want to upstage Teddy Atlas & you want to stay as an analyst on T.V. so you have to comply.....Good luck with the fakes in T.V. Land.

The Ruslan fight took a lot out of Bradley. The fact that he managed to survive and win that fight is incredible to me. Ever since that fight he's been wondering if it's still all worth it. I've always been a huge Bradley fan, not because he was the most gifted, but because he's determination to win was unparalleled. Thanks for the memorable fights.

Even though hed blow up between fights, he trained like a beast in the desert. He survived off of pure leg strength man, those hot desert runs in high elevation will do it.

Tim Bradley was a tough guy in the ring, no matter who he fought. The one fight that sticks out in my memory is his fight vs Kendall Holt when he got cracked with that left hook and got right back off the canvas. It was a helluva shot and to see Bradley stand right back up, I just thought to myself "damn, this dude will eat punishment".

He had a great career, while not the most powerful fighter, he was in some highly entertaining fights. Hopefully he can make a career outside of boxing with his commentating gig, etc. Glad to see him go out still healthy though!

Wait, so Mayweather retires at 40 on his own terms after being champ for 20 years and people say he's ducking all the young top fighters. Bradley retires at 33 and he's getting all this praise. Kinda ironic

its ok he lost to ruslan and the ref missed 3 knockdowns so its somewhat fair
