Timmy Boy is one helluva fighter, though he seems to enjoy making things as difficult for himself as possible.
He makes up for his lack of punching pop with an aggressive, swarming style and stones the size of half kegs. The dude is relentless in his attack, and he’s deterred by nothing.
He had a rough 2014, dropping a wide decision to Manny Pacquiao before Julie Lederman did this to him in a draw against Diego Chaves, but he rebounded nicely last week with a solid win over previously undefeated Jessie Vargas.
The last 20 seconds of the fight showcased what we love about Bradley–even when badly rocked, he’s nearly impossible to put down. Still, he won a wide decision and set himself up for another big fight, hopefully soon.
We’d love to see a rematch with Provodnikov, and though a fight with Floyd Mayweather seems highly unlikely, he certainly deserves a shot as much as anyone else.
