The Sweet Science
But those fights were for a WBA title and sanctioned by the WBA so those were the only rankings that mattered at that time and one guy was an interim title holder and the other was ranked #10 by that governing body.


Soto karass fought and lost to Chino for the "international wba " title. Diego was atleast
the iterem champ but none of these guys were even ranked by any governing body but the wba and the ranking seemed suspect to me.

I think One Time is a top 10 WW off talent myself but he really has fought a bunch of low tier guys. I think he's a bit overrated by some here though. He really hasn't done much to prove himself yet and slow as shyt karass laid a lotta clean shots on him.

He needs a step up fight or at least a somewhat past it name to beat. Shane Mosley would be perfect if he was still fighting but maybe JMM or even a Zab, Berto or perhaps Paulie if he ain't retired

come on breh..you think bradley didn't get a gift in the first pac and thought he could beat pac in the second fight even though pac had all the functional advantages over bradley..is there anyone you think bradley cant beat?
Where'd I say anything about a Bradley victory over pac? Pac/Bradley 2 was a good fight. But we're not talking about fukkin Pacquiao here. We're talking about One Time, so since he has the upper hand why don't you tell me in what outlets? Expect power punching?

I think Alexander struggled more with Soto Karass than Thurminator did. Besides a few good shots he caught early, he went on to dominate and tiger uppercut his ass to Bolivia.

Let's also not forget this is the same Soto Karass that was kicking Chino's ass and beat Aydin and Berto more decisively than the Ghost did.

I look at Thurminator/Bradley like this.

Experience- Timmy
Skills/Technique- Keith
Power- Keith
Speed- Keith
Chin- Timmy
Stamina-Equal

The biggest thing Bradley has over Thurman is experience and a chin. Other than that, everything else favors Keith. You can make a case for both guys beating the other. It's just that I'll rock with One Time if it ever popped off.

Thurman hits harder and throws better combinations, is better at making adjustments in the ring and is faster than Bum Ass Tim Bradley™. And this is coming from a dude who likes Thurman's potential but readily admits he is still in the early stages of his career.
Bum Ass Tim Bradley™ has no power and does nothing else in the ring particularly well except eat a punch with that gigantic head so what exactly would Bum Ass Tim Bradley™ do to win a fight against Keith Thurman? That same pitty pat boring bullshyt he did against JMM?
So like I said before...Bum Ass Tim Bradley™ can't beat Keith Thurman because he is Bum Ass Tim Bradley™.
Shame that you actually think this. One Time isn't faster than Bradley, who has he made adjustments against? Tim has a better jab, better inside fighting, better ring generalship, faster hand speed and oh yea better defense. Okay you don't like Tim, no biggie, but you sound like an idiot here breh.

Why would give Thurman an equal in stamina and the nod in skills technique? How many times has he boxed his way to a victory?

Thurman doesn't flail and throw arm punches so that automatically makes him have better technique than Bradley in my eyes. :mjlol:

Thurman showed that he can knock nikkas out late or go the distance and beat dudes up like in the Zaveck fight (I believe that's his name, could be wrong tho.) This the same nikka that was coming on strong and giving Berto all he could handle before the fight got stopped on cuts. They about equal in stamina to me. If someone were to give the slight edge to Bradley I wouldn't complain. It's too close to bytch about it.

I already know you ride hard body for Timmy and can't be objective when it comes to him, so I have nothing else left to say about this match up. We'll see what happens if it gets made. Besides, I make it a point to not discuss anything Bradley related with people who thought he beat Manny in the 1st fight. That's like trying to describe what water feels like to a nikka who never took a bath before. Waste of time. :manny:

I never said anything about Timmy winning the first Pac fight. But you glossed over the defense, footwork inside game etc. While Thurman is giving EuroCacs like Zaveck hell, Timmy has outboxed: JMM, Lamont Peterson, Junior Witter, Kendall ****--off the top of my head.

Y'all say I can't be objective, but Timmy's been a top 3 WW for the past 3 years(since he entered the division) and I'm supposed to believe he'd lose to an unproven Thurman? :camby:

I'll never understand some of you nikkas

nikkas in here can't wait to shyt on someone like Wilder...claim his chin is China...shyt on his opp etc

Same nikkas hyping up a Soto Karass W...with a blind eye to One Time getting rocked N his possible chin issue

The fukked up part is...if One Time were to lose to a fighter y'all don't like... He turns into Berto N nikkas will say "he only beat JSK" " he never proved himself"

:umad:

Proper punching Technique is a major part of having technical skills and Timmy for his experience level is average at best in that department. His defense and ring generalship is above average, but then so is Thruman's in my eyes against the competition he's faced so far.

Nobody is saying Timmy can't beat dude. It's possible. It's just that I'd pick Thurman to beat him if they ever fight. I give Bradley props on here all the time. Dude is p4p top ten with one of the best resumes in the game, but no matter how good you may be, there will always be someone who is a possible bad match up for you.

You didn't mention anything about Timmy beating Pac in this post, but you've said that shyt before so it's not like I'm going to forget that shyt.

C'mon breh. I'll be the first to say One Time needs to step up his competition, but so far it's been light years better than Wilders. Even Russell Jr's comp before Loma was awful too, but he impressed so many nikkas just off the strength of fighting on turbo every time out.

I don't think Thurman's chin will be an issue in a Bradley fight, but I wouldn't be surprised if Timmy hurt him. Bradley can whack pretty hard on occasion.

I'm not mad. I just don't understand why I couldn't get a response akin to this (not from you, in general) with actual analysis? Yea Bradley can't knock dudes out, but he's one of the best WW's on the planet. Think you got me mistaken with the pac thing breh but, it's no big deal

I like to clown dudes like Bradley, but he's versatile enough to give just about anybody problems. I think at welter he's easily top 3 with only Manny and Floyd in front of him.

He would have beaten the Brook, that Porter just lost to. Bradley might flail, but he doesn't smother his shots as much as Shawn does on the inside. He actually does good work.
