Bradley VS Marquez

[MattyMatt]

wow Bradley totally outboxed him.

If Marquez cameout trying to trade a little earlier he could've won but he gave away 5 of the first 6 rounds.

Bradley just has no power at all, he was hitting Marquez CLEAN with good shots and it wasn't really doing a ton.

Staggered Marquez 3x, almost knocking him down twice. Bradley also took Marquez best and shook it off.

I find myself upset again at the judging. I had 115-113, and said 116-112 would show up as well, but for a unanimous decision. Split is absolutely BS. Judges at the Top Level of fighting sports are the worst. Move over and give me my chance...

He hit him flush like 10 times, I could've staggered him if you gave me that many chances.

But JMM was supposed to KO Bradley right, or at least put him down right??? He took it like a champ. Good showing. Wonder what's will come about next...

I thought it was quite entertaining.

Most people give the power advantage to the Mexican. And since Bradley has a low ko rate in his undefeated résumé but is probably the better and faster boxer, many assumed it would be Marquez by ko or Bradley by decision.

And matty, I gotta disagree with you on the judging on this one. I think many of the early rounds were close enough to go either way. Bradley ran away in the later rounds, but I don't have any problem with 7-5 marq or 8-4 Bradley because thats only 3 rounds that could've gone either way, and there were plenty of those in that category.

Thanks Cowboy. I judged the close rounds to Bradley because of the aggression. Way more active. Were a lot landing? No, but in a fight where nothing much was landed from either fighter, the busier guy normally gets the nod. Bradley was twice as busy as Marquez all night. Marquez seemed gassed at the end. Pedialite shots during rounds for dehydration. It is what it is now, but I stand behind my split decision is total BS after rewatching the fight. On to the next one...
