Re: bradley got another gift
Nope, Bradley clearly earned that he boxed very well. Made Marquez lead most of the fight and was a lot more effective picking his spots than I thought he could be. Very good performance from him.
Re: bradley got another gift
I can't say one way or another. The link I had kept slowing up and speeding down. What I made out was JMM doing well but too much of the fight wasn't playing right.I have to say if Bradley did get a clean win good for him. in both the Prod and Manny fight he got some gifts. I really thought JMM would dominate and apparently I was wrong. I guess Bradley v Mayweather would be in the picture now. Will he rematch Manny to see if he can cement his standing. Well, good for Bradley, always nice to see a bunch of sad Mexicans and LGBTs on the same night.
Re: bradley got another gift
It was a close fight.
The HBO commentators were extremely biased against Marquez.
Re: bradley got another gift
I wouldnt call it a gift. It was close. I saw a lot of punches blocked in the middle rounds where the. commintators were giving them to bradley marquez had the same problem he did against chris john and that is he didnt do enought to win the fight on points.
Re: bradley got another gift
my problem is that it was fought at a slower pace than marquez wanted, but bradley fought very slowly too. marquez seemed to land the better punches through most of the rounds. bradley usually likes fighting at a faster pace and winning because he overwhelms his opponent. he didnt do that at all.
maybe saying a gift is a bit much but i thought that JMM definitely deserved the W.

Ran away with it in the last half and especially the last 1/4. Almost got a kd in the 12th.

Bradley (just like Garcia) must now be considered in the P4P. Head butts notwithstanding, that could be an interesting fight w FMM.
On a side note, if JMM is going to continue, he needs to have someone else in the corner with him DURING the fight. IMO Nacho was completely ineffective. Don't think hes too old; JMM needed fresh eyes to help him execute what he is capable of. Someone to say 'right counter over the jab' and 'focus on the body this round.' If he gets that, I think he can still compete P4P.
how is it possible that you've been a member on saddo's since 2005 and only have 1 cool click that i just gave you 2 minutes ago?
Re: bradley got another gift
What was clear tonight is that Marquez based his world around fighting a southpaw of a certain style. Every uppercut he threw tonight that landed on Manny missed Bradley.

Re: bradley got another gift
I've said all along and maintain if Marquez wants to be at his best he needs to lose some of that bulk. Unless he intends to sit on one punch all fight every fight it isn't serving him well.
FTR I was rooting for Marquez but thought Bradley clearly won.
