Re: Marquez - Bradley HBO face off
I think this speech thing with Bradley is getting blown out of proportion. I believe Bradley is exaggerating cuz not too many fighters would actually admit to something like that leading up to a fight. It shows weakness..
Bradley is just playing drama right now.
Re: Marquez - Bradley HBO face off
I don't see Bradley winning this. The only thing that kept him up several times v Prodov was the ropes. I don't dislike Bradley, he always comes prepared and his conditioning is beyond the beyond but I think Marquez will outdo him. You never do know with Bradley, his luck with calls is also beyond the beyond.

Timothey will die in that ring if he has too..all he has to do is fight a bit smarter.
We dont know if marquez is too old now or if hes in his second prime but this will be a great fight and could be fight of the year.
I agree, I think Bradley is a brilliant fighter and he can do it all. The only thing he lacks is a bit more pop, but he is hardly Malignaggi. He is fast, has output, gets straight back up, he can box, he can brawl, he can look fun, he can grind. Often he does all these things in the space of a single bout.
I can see him winning this too. Either Marquez stops him, or else Bradley is going to outhustle him over 12. Bradley has all the tools to outwork a very old Marquez.

Such a shame bradley is on top rank.
He deserves a shot at floyd more than anyone else.
If he beats marquez would a cotto fight at 147 happen?
That would be interesting..
I cant see cotto dropping to 147 so perhaps a rematch with manny or another fight with marquez depending on how good this first fight goes.
The winner fights Manny and the winner of that fights the fighter that beat Rios and the fighter that lost against Brad and then they will mix and match until Bob Arum dies.
Re: Marquez - Bradley HBO face off
To me it comes down to who is the better boxer/fighter...and that is clearly Marquez. The only question is, will Marquez have enough in the tank at this stage of his career. If he does...he beats Bradley convincingly.
Re: Marquez - Bradley HBO face off
The first 24/7 episode is on YouTube. I enjoyed it, it's worth a watch.
Re: Marquez - Bradley HBO face off
This should be good. I think JMM has the advantage but it is not like Tim doesn't have a chance. I was thinking of getting the fight but I see it is 64.95. I don't think I want to see it that badly. I can wait for Showtime to air it a week or two after the ppv. One of the good things about this forum is you can get a play by play during the fight. I will have to live vicariously through you guys the night of the fight.
Re: Marquez - Bradley HBO face off
Man I'm hyped up waiting for this one. 24/7 on now. I just cannot root against Marquez, won't happen. But from jump off Bradley was an alright dude. I thought he lost his last two but style wise and fighters desire wise, you won't get two more professional prize fighters unzipping the chest and leaving it all in the ring. Liking Marquez camps focus and point on 'how' Bradley misses punches, physically and power counters. Wish this was on TONIGHT!!
