Pacquiao-Bradley Aftermath: JD's Case For Bradley

The sports world was rocked last Saturday night after Michael Buffer's "and new" announcement in Vegas.  Timothy "Desert Storm" Bradley beat Manny Pacquiao by split decision.

Khan vs. Judah Reflections

Well, we thought it would be close.  We thought it would be the classic youth versus experience battle.  We thought that with one good punch on either side it could break out into a war.

...And we were wrong.  Last night, from the opening bell to the finish, one guy was clearly faster, smarter, more conditioned, more effective, and all-around dominant.  That guy was Amir "King" Khan, who knocked out Zab Judah in the fifth round.

Timothy Bradley Addresses Amir Khan

Timothy Bradley has no trouble addressing the fact that he backed out of his bout with Amir Khan.

Even in retreat Bradley shows his willingness to fight.  You can feel his hunger to get it on with Khan here.  Gotta love TB.

Timothy Bradley

140 is a stacked division right now.  Tons of tremendously talented fighters--Amir Khan, Marcos Maidana, Devon Alexander, Zab Judah, and Andriy Kotelnik to name just a few--have kept this weight class bubbling with excitement.  The talent is astronomical and the competition is fierce.

One belt-holder in particular stands out among the rest, though: the Desert Storm Timothy Bradley.
