Peterson is very good and people talk about him giving Tim a hard fight as if the first fight didn't count or something. Tim adjusted and dominated him in the first bout. Alexander hasn't lost since the Bradley fight (a close decision win against Matthysse sure) and is looking better in every fight. Abregu was supposed to be some "bum with a decent record" but yet again, we find a guy that remains undefeated besides his sole loss to Bradley. Abregu just wiped the floor with Dolurme who was supposed to be one of the next superstars of boxing.
Tomorrow he is fighting a guy with only one semi-controversial decision loss out of 30 fights and is on a 5 fight winning streak coming into this bout. Even though he is moving up in weight, he is actually bigger than Bradley is. If Tim stops this guy and looks good doing it, how much longer can people discredit the guy? It doesn't matter because I'll keep defending him regardless but the dude isn't going anywhere he belongs in the top 5 p4p in the world but we all know that is just a popularity contest anyways.

I know what I saw as most did and that was a Bradley who couldn't adjust and didn't do much even with his "new power" you where claiming he had at 147. And yes it does suck that he rarely gets any recognition from all the work he puts in. He better be more active if he wants the big paydays.
Bradley had no power yet Manny did not rush in on him like he did Cotto..Interesting, and if you have eyes then I'm sure you noticed that PAC was the only fighter damage by punches..He was busted up in the mouth and bleeding..You say PAC was tired of swinging on Bradley, instead of giving Bradley any credit for body shots(that was the real reason PAC slowed down) you say Bradley could not adjust, yet PAC was the only one looking confused about how to attack..
Dude I'm a big PAC fan, I've defend him on a lot of things..I could see an argument for PAC winning..I scored it for Bradley tho..IMO it was a close fight,but like I said most just don't wanna give Bradley any credit, but he deserves a lot for his fight with PAC IMO..

Bradley has to rearrange this guys face and put him on the canvas. Bradley stopped Casamayor but it was a sloppy fight & Joel fought like he just was there for a paycheck. Provodnikov will be there to win the fight and has a style that makes for must see tv if Bradley decides to go in the trenches and engage. Bradley is an elite fighter and though Ruslan is very good, he has never fought anyone close to being capable of doing what he will see saturday night. Easy work for Bradley and if he wins impressively, hopefully he actually gets the Marquez fight. I think he could prove his worth in that contest.
