Schmoopy if you didn't see this fight find it on HBO it was a war.
Not sure if I have ever seen two guys try so hard.
Don't want to say too much in case you did not see it yet.

I watched it. It was cool. Bradley was lucky this isnt a 15 rd fight.
If the knock down in the 1st rd. would have been called a Knock down like it was suppose to be this fight wouldd have been a draw. If provdinkov had better stamina I think he ends the fight early in the fight.
great gutsy fight on both of their parts.
Roy Jones annoyed the hell out of me though during the fight. He was so one sided pro bradley in his commentary. I think Max Kellerman is the best commentator for boxing. I like the combo of him Lampley & Ward.

The first round knockdown call stunk. The camera angle showed it was no slip. But I think the ref was behind Provodnikov and didn't see it right.
If you were calling the fight on who was knocked out but just forgot to fall it would have been a different ending.
Jones always leans towards the black fighters.
That was a barn burner of a fight. I bet Bradley won't remember a couple of rounds.

I bet he doesnt give a rematch either LOL
As hard as he was hitting Bradley so late in the fight, I was wondering if he was clean? The guy was very strong.

Yeah the no rematch thought crossed my mind too. I don't ever remember seeing a fighter so wobbly so many times early in the rounds survive to win a fight. He was tilted sideways at least 5 times.
They take blood tests, right?

That was one of HBO's best. I like Kellerman too but Lampley can get on my nerves.
Before the fight I watched that movie about Micky Ward. Pretty good movie. The best actor/actress was the girl from Baltimore Life in the Streets TV show. Melissa Leo who played his mom. The guy who played the cop was the real guy who trained him. The fight scenes left a lot out.
