    Did anyone see the pre-interview they did for Bradley before the fight? It kinda got to me, he was very emotional/holding back tears from Pacquaio fight..

    It's gotta be tough for him. Everyone is made at him because he beat Pacquaio. He has to live with the fact that his greatest achievement has made him disliked by so many.

    As far as last night's fight goes, I can't wait to see the replay. Twitter was blowing up with people talking about the fight.

    Hell of a fight. Don't know how Bradley kept his feet...just incredible.

    Provodnikov should have won the fight but he just didnt do enough in the middle rounds.

    Roy joy jr's announcing is real annoying.

    Friend kept texting me all through the fight saying that Roy was clearly watching a different fight. He was awful.

    Caught it this morning. Both guys are freakin warriors. Bradley winning the middle rounds won him the fight. If Provodnikov would have pressed the fight more he could've knocked Bradley out.

    If Bradley boxes this guy instead of fight that guys fight, he wins EASILY( but then everybody would say the fight was boring, so i guess its win for the fans)

    On the other hand Ruslan should have gone to the body more

    Agree with this entirely. No way Bradley stands toe to toe again with this guy like he did in the first 2 rounds...my guess is no one will stand toe to toe with this again.

    I think whoever wins next week between Brandon Rios and Mike Alvarado can stand up and fight Ruslan Provodnikov.

    I see your point and I even tend to agree, but whether we like it or not, he "won" that fight and a lot of people hate him for it.

    Except he didn't "win" that fight. Anybody who watched knew Pac won that fight and it wasn't really close.

    i had Bradley winning 115-113

    Pac did nothing in the late rounds, and people get decieved by Jim Lampley biased commentary. He calls punches that never land

    I scored it for Pac 116-112 and lost 1k on the decision but there are plenty of people who scored it for Bradley
