Bradley got power too, but his punching technique comes and goes during fights and a lot of the time he just flails as well. Every now and then he'll throw a good correct shot and drop or hurt somebody (Witter, Abregu, end of Marquez fight) for examples

i dont think bradley is all the way featherfisted either..the problem with bradley's punching is its somewhat amateurish as you said...he doesn't sit on his punches and he's something of an arm puncher...the only punch ive seen him throw with effectiveness is an overhand right...i did see improvement in that aspect in that jmm fight though with him using his legs more when punching..the ruslan fight is prolly the best ive seen timmy punch. cuz no way a featherfisted fighter does what he did to ruslan..he was really sitting on his punches and punishing ruslan in the later rounds

Bradley isn't featherfisted, he rarely sits on his punches.

hatton outstanding at 147? he only had 1 fight at 147 before floyd and that was against luis collazo and he got a big gift in that shyt..thats why he vacated that belt ASAP..he didn't look that much better in the Floyd fight either

Tszyu would have ducked, he aint really want it, Floyd was calling him out for years before that


The better fighter won, and the better fighter went on to fight Floyd, and Hatton gave Floyd one of his toughest grittiest fights and went out on his shield, probably getting his last little bit of fight beat out of him vs May. I have nothing but respect for Hatton.


Shamefully he gets slighted for the Manny match, when truth be told he had no business back at 140 when he looked outstanding vs Floyd at 147. Hatton might have underestimated him due to his size also.............................

He is feather fisted look at his ko percentage for a elite fighter and he very well sits on his punches, he's a trench fighter in fighter that digs the body to impose his will on his opponents

His Issue is those noodley arm openhanded slaps he throws, his right hand power is also non existent, a elite fighter exposes his lack or a right, although his punches seemed significantly sharper vs JMM

If you know anything about boxing which u dont you know fighters historically look like shyt moving up their first fight, even Floyd is not above that.

Thank God. I hope he does make it. No boxer deserves death

Adusalamov expected to live

Comatose heavyweight Magomed Adusalamov's condition is improving, leading doctors to say he will live.

Nathan Lewkowicz, vice president of Sampson Boxing, Adusalamov's promoter, told ESPN.com of Adusalamov's condition on Thursday.

"A week ago, the doctors thought he was not going to make it, that he would not survive. They said they were 100 percent sure he would not make it," Lewkowicz said. "Now they think it has turned around. They say he is going to make it now. They have seen progress with his motor skills from the tests they have been doing.

"The words out of their mouth after the surgery were, 'We don't think he's going to make it.' They said that to the family. Now, based on how he's progressed in these different tests, they changed their view. From what the doctor is saying the brain swelling has subsided."

The 32-year-old Abdusalamov (18-1-1, 18 KOs), a married father of three young daughters, has been in a medically induced coma at Roosevelt Hospital in New York since having brain surgery to remove a blood clot that formed during a 10-round decision loss to Mike Perez in a vicious battle on Nov. 2 at the Theater at Madison Square Garden in front of a national audience on HBO.

He was placed into a medically induced coma to give the brain swelling time to subside, but he was also on life support machines. Lewkowicz said doctors plan to bring Abdusalamov out of the medically induced coma in the next few days.

"They think they will try to wake him up in two or three days and see how he reacts," Lewkowicz said. "We don't know if his speech will be slurred or if he will be blind, which are major possibilities. The stroke could hinder some of his motor skills. He might not be able to speak well. He might be blind. The best we hope for is that he can lead a normal life."

Not long after the brain surgery, Abdusalamov suffered a stroke while in the coma and his temperature rose to 104 degrees, and doctors do not know what damage was done. However, Lewkowicz said that Abdusalamov showed unexpected signs of improvement in recent days.

"They did a test by pinching his arm and he was smacking the doctor's hand away, showing his motor skills are coming back. They weren't expecting that," Lewkowicz said. "It's amazing progress. It's good news. He's still young, only 32, and was in good health before what happened. So that is very helpful."

Besides the brain bleed, Abdusalamov suffered superficial injuries during the fight, including a broken nose, broken hand, cuts and bruises. He appeared to be OK after leaving the ring and was going to go to the hospital to have the injuries checked out. Then he began to feel sick and complained of a headache before vomiting. When arrived at the hospital, he had a CT scan, which revealed the blood clot and he was rushed into surgery.
