I mean, his only loses was against Pacquiao. I would have love to see him fight against Broner, Garcia and Thurman. Did he have an injury that forced him to retire?

Why did Tim Bradley retire too soon?

He was definitely on the slide. That Povodnikov fight took something out of him. I believe he also said he had some problems because of that fight, concussion etc. You could see after that fight that he was getting hurt and buzzed by shots that never used to hurt him.
I think he got out at the right time. He made good money and was in decline. He would've soon started to lose to fighters that couldn't have laced his gloves at one point.
Smart retirement i think.

yeah he got his brain cream crackered in that fight, he made a smart move getting out when he did when he felt the signs.
Too few boxers make that judgement call and keep giving themselves one more fight, then they end up like a brussel sprout being wheeled around by their family after their 50th birthday

The mother****er thought he was in another country when he was commentating. Provodnikov really scrambled his brain.
The nail in the coffin was watching Pacquiao go through hell and back with Horn after pacquiao whooped Bradley easily.
