Re: What's next for Bradley?
Marquez would be grand and then perhaps a rematch with Manny. I think he has the youth and tenacity to beat both. It would be a bit like Steve Collins getting Benn and Eubank towards the end of their shelf lives.

You are off your rocker Miles! ;D
Bradley barely just beat the #10 140 lber in the world. He lost convincingly to Manny before that.

I think Bradley needs to be commended on how badly he did get rocked and he still got up and boxed well and did enough to just about win.
Has Bradley won any fans with that performance? I think he should because he could have just boxed to a decision and made it easier for himself, but he wanted to get him out of there so he traded with Provodnikov, although that wasn't a wise move, it did make a great fight for the fans. Bradley has acknowledged what he did wrong and if they ever fight again, Bradley would win a wider points decision because for a lot of the fight Bradley was in control and he was boxing well. Considering how much punishment he did take early on, Bradley really did well to take control of the fight and I congratulate him for that he showed true spirit staying on his feet, although he was badly hurt.
What's next for Bradley? He needs to stay out of the wars if he wants to further his career, Marquez seems interested in a Bradley fight, how do you think he will step up against him?
I don't fully agree. Bradley said afterwards he thinks he has a concussion, and that it affected his performance since round one. Bradley was trying to box troughout the 11 rounds , after the first. He just continued to get caught. He should fight Marquez, since he would get money for it, and it would be interesting. Marquez beats him I think , and so does Manny
Re: What's next for Bradley?
Bradley should cash out against Marquez, did Pacquiao ruin him!?
Re: What's next for Bradley?
Bradley vs. Rios and Pacquiao vs. Marquez V are inevitable for me. I'd imagine they're next.
Re: What's next for Bradley?
How could Pacquiao have ruined Bradley if he only hurt him once in that fight and the fight was relatively close?
I understand most thought Pacquiao won (I did too), but in no way did Pacquiao blow Bradley out of the water in that fight, or make him look foolish. He belonged in the ring with Pacquiao that night.
After fighting a good, albeit losing, fight against Pacquiao, and a corker of a fight against the Siberian, Provodnikov, he earned the fight with Marquez. I think Marquez will think Bradley looked vulnerable enough to risk a fight with him. Recall that prior to Bradley-Provodnikov, Marquez's team thought Bradley was too risky to fight.
Re: What's next for Bradley?
Bradley is a warrior, always has been and it took a thrashing for people to sit up and take note. His determination and pride is a credit to his heart and can be a curse to his game. He can't change who he is and his slugging or 'sticking to his game' wasn't really his option to decide with a clear head once he was repeatedly rattled. They should choose wisely for next fight and honestly not Rios, Provo or that sort. If JMM wants to dance it would be a well earned high profile payday and style clash but I'd favor Marquez on accuracy and depth.
Re: What's next for Bradley?
Probably Rios. Whoever it is, I'll be watching. Bradley is one tough motherfucker.
Re: What's next for Bradley?
Why should Bradley be commended for fighting a silly fight. He handpicked an opponent in which he was supposed to look good against. Instead he fights to his limit to get the victory. I do not believe he deliberately did that to entertain the fans, if he did then he is very foolish. Bradley needs to move on and fight Paulie or Alexander because that is about his level at this weight.
Re: What's next for Bradley?
He needs 6 months off then back in the gym and fight within 8 months. I think after that trama bout he needs some time. Both of those men battered each other pretty bad! Standing/Walking KO's! Ray
Re: What's next for Bradley?
Bradley is a lucky fighter , he is steady but thats all.
