Might have to call him Pillow Hands Bradley. I just think it's finally going to catch up with him. Dude has been so lucky. From the headbutt victory against Alexander to the gift victory against Manny to the split decision against ProVo. Reminds me of the 1986 Lakers. Half assing and struggling against weaker opposition and barely getting by. Then Ralph Sampson shut the coffin. I think Manny wins easily.


I wouldn't go that far..Bradley outboxed JMM which is no easy feat. That Provodnokov fight was one for the ages.. Bradley rocked Prov a few times as well.

Manny wins by decision…but a close one.

I mean Bradley's a hard worker. I'd like to see him pull it off. I don't see it being close at all. Atleast 8-4 on rounds for Manny. I wonder who the judges will be.

And that Bradley-ProVo fight was the best one I've been to.

His moms dress is pretty tight.

That body shot from Kovalev in the 7th was gangster. Throws two straight right hands to the guard. Feints a third right and come with a left to the body.

Damn shame 3/4 of the belts are with Showtime. Only way Kovalev can unify the titles is to get with Al Haymon.

Kovalev with the quote of the year so far "Stevenson is a piece of (bleep)."

Only way they fight is if HBO and Haymon work together.

Kovalev definitly has power the body shot that took Agnew out looked more like a jab.

I don't think Manny has fully recovered from the KO. He displayed a lot of caution in the Rios fight. Couple of times he had the chance to score a KO but he backed up and took a look instead of going in for the kill.

He even said in the post fight interview he was cautious.

I don't give Bradley much of a chance. He can be hit and hurt. He'll fight back when he's hurt but I don't think he can handle Manny's punch.

Manny has the power and showed some improved boxing skills.

I think Timothy is going to taste his first sleeping pill.

ADONIS STEVENSON CALLS KOVALEV A "BUM WITH NO DEFENCE"; TELLS PROMOTER "STOP CRYING...MAKE THE FIGHT"

Quote:

"@KrusherKovalev You just a real slow BUM with no defence. Easy work," wrote WBC light heavyweight champion Adonis Stevenson, who immediately took to Twitter to blast WBO light heavyweight champion Sergey Kovalev following his dominant 7th round knockout of previously undefeated Cedric Agnew. Apparently, Stevenson took offense to Kovalev calling him a "piece of (bleep)" during his post-fight interview.

"@Main_Events @KrusherKovalev Tell your mama Kathy Duva to stop crying and to call @yvonmichelGYM and @AlHaymon to make the fight happen! BUM," Stevenson commented in a follow-up post on Twitter, making it clear that he's ready, willing, and able to face Kovalev. Up first for Stevenson, however, is a May 24 title defense against Andrzej Fonfara, which will be televised by Showtime. More than anything, the Cold War between the two networks [HBO and Showtime] will likely prevent a unification between Kovalev and Stevenson from taking place, however, judging from Stevenson's comments, it appears that he's at least willing to come to the negotiating table to see if something can be worked out.

Here's the thing. Floyd boxes someones socks off, doesn't get a ko, and he looks brilliant, but Manny isn't the same Manny doing the same? I don't buy any of it.

And, realistically, Manny didn't knock Cotto out. The fight was stopped. Same with Oscar. Margarito fight could have been stopped. Shane and Clottey didn't come to fight.

Bradley made Manny miss in the first fight, but he also got hit a lot. He thinks 2 good feet will help him, but that might be his downfall.

Agnew did what he could to last as long as he could. Kovalev is gonna be avoided just like GGG.

Sorry, guys. Didn't update to remind everyone about boxing last night. Anybody catch the Stevens fight or the Cunningham fight?

Just in case there's a link somewhere online already, I won't say anything except that both fights were definitely worth watching!

great non-stop heavyweight fight. U.S.S. too Amir from the shallow end and to the deep end. It was a wrap after that.

Amir was loading up and seem like he punched himself out by round 7 and once that eye went into labor, he was done.

Don't think Cunningham has the power to really do damage at the heavyweight division especially if he's only weighing in at 206. Chavez Jr. probably walks around at 206.

Hahaha...my bad. It's been seriously a storm at work. Non-stop.

But, I found links for everyone to watch. Here they are:

Golden Boy Live


Links are in order of sequence:
NBC (Stevens fight)




(Cunningham fight)
Seems like they didn't post up the first 4.5 rounds:

Clottey vs. Mundine on Wednesday, but can't find any TV listings, but more than likely will be a stream somewhere.

7:30pm Australian time, so that puts it at 2:30am PST (Pretty sure they are 15 hours ahead)

I thoroughly enjoy trying to interpret Gennady's interviews. Reminds me of Manny's responses, when he was still trying to really understand English:

http://www.fightsaga.com/news/item/4351-Gennady-isms-finally-translated-by-FightSaga-com

My favorite response from Manny, when he was starting to get better with English:


What kind of gloves?
