    I would’ve liked for Bradley to have a farewell fight against someone like Broner. It would’ve been great to see how Bradley would’ve fought knowing it was his final time in the ring. But I guess he didn’t want to risk another fight. He wouldn’t get a payday like the one he got for the 3rd Pacquiao fight, and he probably likes being a 2 division champ who is undefeated at 140, and only lost to Pacquiao at 147.

        Good retirement, plus he also made Brandon Rios cry like a little bi*ch once again

          I would really like to see Bradley fight one last time. Bradley vs Broner fight would have been huge. Those two hate each other, press conferences and face off would have been entertaining. I think it's a 50/50 fight

            He made a lot from 3 pacquiao fights when Pac was still somehow big.
            Plus he already had a job outside the ring.
            Maidana had marginally less in two fights with Floyd since floyd takes too much of the share.

            Those fights are indeed salivating style wise. I can see him beating Garcia easily if he fights off the back foot. He’ll outwork Broner. While I’m not sure against Thurman since he may be a bit past it when thurman rose to fame.

              Sometimes your body tells you when to retire. Solid dude. Glad he has the opportunity to stay in the game at some capacity.....off subject, .his wife is one of the best managers in the game. Anyone know if she has other clients or just managed Timmy?
