    How come Tim Bradley wasn't really liked?

    Bradley had his share of fans, but no where near the likes of a Mayweather. So what was wrong with Bradley and why didn't he have a lot of fans?

    Inside the ring, Bradley was for the most part undefeated, willing to fight the best, he was a great fighter with fun fights, and he always gave it his all. Outside the ring he was just as good too. He was a father, a husband, well spoken, and never got in trouble with the law, yet he didn't have fans.

    Whereas you have someone like Mayweather, in the ring he was someone who many thought had boring fights, didn't look for the best fights, and did just enough to get the decision victory. Outside the ring he was an ignorant gambler, loud and obnoxious, and even went to jail for physical abuse towards women, yet he had plenty of fans.

    How does Bradley not have fans but Mayweather does?

        Bradley’s style of fighting is his downfall , unfortunately
        He wasn’t a ko artist or the big ****er
        13 ko’s doesn’t exactly make you mainstream
        Imo , good fighter and hard worker but hard to make heads turn with just that

          Like Crawford, Stevenson, and Haney he signed with who would pay him the largest guaranteed minimum vs promises of being taken care of on a fight per fight basis with nothing in legal writing.

            Think back to the time you were a child

            The idea of imma grow up to be a good husband wasn’t floating around in your head

            Floyd’s Badboy Lifestyle is a symbol of freedom. Imma be financially free and do whatever I want

                Timmeh married a round single mom who calls the shots in his life and is involved in the salad shop business

                Floyd has the fastest cars, a boxing promotion, and stripclub

                No real man who is 100% honest would rather be Timmeh outside of the ring

                OP must be trolling as a dork

                Timmeh needed a gift decision to get a W Over the 2nd best fighter of the era. Floyd didn’t need no help he did it by himself.

                That’s when the public turned against Timmeh. Sucks because it wasn’t Timmeh’s fault that bop paid off the judges

                  Anyways I like Timmeh as a commentator

                  Didn’t like his emotional decisions inside of the ring like brawling with Russian dude

                    I found it odd when Timmeh talked about suicide

                    Suicidal because angry paqturds gave the good man death threats over fight 1
