What Bradley did was exciting, and I give him all the props in the world. But it was stupid, and you can't deny that.
If you were coaching someone, and they got hurt, would you actually recommend they do what Bradley did?
If you get hurt, you need to hold or do something to get your wits back about you. You don't just stand in the pocket and throw a bunch of wild sh*t, and during that hope you don't get smashed in the process.
I get Bradley was in zombie mode and probably couldn't really think about what he was doing, and like I said it was extremely exciting.
But Floyd is a SMART fighter. If he gets hurt, he'll do whatever necessary to clear his head and go back to doing what he does.
Floyd already proved in fights against Corley and Mosley he doesn't fold when hurt. Floyd may not stupidly fight back with his chin up in the pocket like Timmy did, but that doesn't mean he is the type of guy to fold.
Mayweather has way more heart than people give him credit for. Nobody ever sees him in a situation where he needs to show it, so they assume he has no heart. Fact is, he has shown it before and Floyd has just as much heart or fortitude as anyone in the game.
No, because Timothy Bradley is a real man. He is a good man, and displayed his enormous courage and heart, something that Floyd knows nothing about. Floyd was spoiled by mom and dad, so if you do not pay any attention to him, he throws a temper tantrum and likes to hit women, also hit kids. I agree that Floyd would fold, like Marcia Brady getting hit in the nose by a football thrown by her brother. The first time, he loses, he will say: I lost because I am too old. Remember, excuses are like what we sit on, everyone has one. He acts like a cheap imitation of a loud mouth, so that people will pay to see him get beat, but sorry, someone else tried that idea out in the early 1960's, and we are not ignorant like Floyd is. So in boxing we have Clown Face Adrien Broner and Floyd Mayweather, the wife beater.Bradley has class, something that Adrien and Floyd know nothing about. we will never see Floyd fight anybody that will destroy him like Sergio Maravilla Martinez, the World Middleweight Champion. Mayweather says he will dictate the negotiations, he probably would want to fight at a catch weight, no way. Martinez is the champion at 160lbs, and Mayweather better stop fantasizing that he is God before someone slaps him to wake up, God does not say naughty uneducated words. Martinez can decide, it is his belt.
I think time will tell, Show Time will put Floyd in the ring with some dangerous opponents and eventually Floyd is going to get hit.
Tough to say because that ability to recover and flawed fighting style is what led to him getting put on queer street so often to begin with. What has set Floyd apart is his ability to process information and make the proper adjustments so taking that type of punishment isn't necessary and there simply hasn't been an opponent that could force him into wrong answers for every question.
No way Floyd would allow his azz be put in a situation same with Bradley. He's too concerned with his health and "0" and the only way to avoid such danger is "JUST DON'T FIGHT DANGEROUS FOES".
Flash, May just know better than Tim ever did against Ruslan.
floyd isn't going to put his self in a risky fight/situation to begin with so you'll prolly never know lol
floyd will fold if he dont hold...yo!!!!
good rhymes ei....he took a hit from mosley and what did he do???....hug hug hug...
bradley didnt, he stepped back...wobbly, groggy, yet still punching back...
somebody mentions pacman as the greatest who lived yes hes good until he gets hit with a solid punch on the chin
Manny pacquiao is the greatest fighter in the history of boxing. #MPfolife
Timothy Bradley did if he was hurt the same in a fight. I don't know many fighters that could have come back from what Bradley did against a guy who knows how to finish a fighter once he has him hurt. I think Floyd folds up faster than a two dollar tent in a hurricane. What do you say.
nope
