HAHA ...Campbell clowns bradley on fightnews

I found this interview hilarious...

"That big ass head is what he ought to be thanking God for" ::

http://www.fightnews.com/?p=21641#more-21641

 

Campbell was getting his ass beat...and found away out of it..EARLY...he didn't even try...

 

Or maybe he got headbutted and couldn't see...ever consider that?

 

no he was getting his ass kick..got headbutted..and QUIT...

 

He wasn't getting his ass kicked man...the last flurry only happened because he got buzzed from a headbutt. Sure Bradely is a hard guy to fight but Cambell would have figured him out eventually IMO.

 

The only joke is Campbell.

I currently hate Nate more than any other fighter in the sport.

If I had my wish... Campbell's next fight would be against David Haye.

 

Ok we get it you hate Campbell...how much times are you going to repeat this shit? In fact who cares if you "hate" him or not. You don't even know him . You sound like a tennie bopper.

 

I dunno if Campbell would have figured him out or not, but to say he was gettin his ass kicked is pushin it, the only time I saw him gettin beat up was in the last round and that was after the headbutt...and even then it was just a lot of punches not nearly enough gettin in.
I am sure Campbell would have adapted and won a few rounds dunno if it would have been enough though.
But I do think he has a right with what he is saying, it clearly is a headbutt, and he got jobbed out of it.
And I'm not a fan of Campbell at all.

 

100 percent in agreement. I'll Holla 5000

 

I still believe Campbell gets whupped in a rematch, I mean stopped

 

Eh...can't see it...unless the corner stopped it or something, its true Bradley don't have the power to really hurt Campbell...he's not a big puncher.

 

dont get caught up in the teeny boppers.. Bradley will wear you down, he is not a one punch KO guy but the cumulative pressure just will wear them down

 

Still waiting for that doctors report on Campbells eye.

 

And you sound like a sensitive lil bitch. Everybody on this forum has fighters they cant stand for whatever reason. For me its Campbell. If you seem to have a problem with that.... kiss me where the sun dont shine.

 

lots of teeny boppers in this thread

 

I fucking hate all boxing reporters. Why won't anyone ask him how he would have reacted in the corner had he known the cut was ruled a punch?

The entire industry is filled with pussies who refuse to ask hard questions.

 

not everyone is hard as fuck stevie :dunno:

 

Nate was getitng throughougly fucked up in that fight and he's damn lucky the commission don't mind quitters, because Nate swallowed the pill and took the easy way out.

Brdley would have stopped him in pretty ugly fashion if that had went on.

 

agREED...

It was a Pretty 1-Sided Fight for as Loooooooong as it Lasted...Bradley Trapped Nate on the Ropes & Beat his Ass in MORE than just the Final Round...Bradley was QUICKER, STRONGER & FRESHER Throughout...Just BETTER in Every Regard...

Nate Looked like an OLD Antelope Trying to Get Away from a YOUNG Cheetah...Eventually the Cheetah Catches the Aging Antelope & EATS HIM UP...Eventually, Bradley was Gonna STOP Nate Campbell, DESPITE his Lack of 1-Shot Power....

Gary Shaw would B STUPID to Price Tim Bradley OUT of a RE w/Campbell....EASY Fight for Bradley...

REED:hammert:

 

yeah for an industry leader fightnews' journalism is pitifully lacklustre, about as probing as pre-glasnost Pravda

 

I don't think the fight was close to being long enough for anyone to have draw a confident conclusion as to who would've won the fight. Sure Bradley raced out to a big start but he was expending a lot of energy and certainly wasn't hurting Campbell. There's no telling what would've happened - I think it's jumping the gun to just assume Bradley would've won no matter what.

 

:bears::bears:

 

cheetahs can run exceptionally fast but only for short distances otherwise they overheat. so if the cheetah doesn't catch the antelope the first time he isn't getting a second chance. there is no "eventually".

 

:flip:

 

Nate obviously got hit with a headbutt. Bradley must have learned to fight at the "Evander Holyfield School of Headbutts."

Bradley isn't very good and Nate is simply too old.

Bradley is lucky Nate isn't a left hooker...Nate relied on the overhand right far too much. Bradley was too short and comes in too low for that shot to land.

Lefthooks and uppercuts...that'll do in Bradley. if Shaw is wise, he'll keep him away from anyone who can punch. hell, if Kendall Holt didn't fight like a bitch he would have KO's Bradley.

 

At least Mike Tyson had the decency to do something dramatic and bite Evander's ear off.

Nate just sat down in his corner and quit.

 

I remember posting maybe a year ago that I felt Bradley could not be ruled out to beat anyone present at 140, including Pac (although I'd favor Pac). I think many disagreed, stating the converse that no one present at 140 could be ruled out to beat Bradley.

I think now that is a foolish opinion. Saying Bradley "isn't very good" is not to give due credit to his performances. People in this thread have commented about how we really don't know how the Bradley/Campbell fight would have ended up because Bradley was exerting a lot of energy and we only saw a few rounds, etc., etc. - this is also in the same sort of mild denial vein.

Since when has Bradley ever gotten tired and wilted in the late rounds of a fight? If anything, he gets stronger as his opponent gets weaker. To somehow insinuate that we needed to see the rest of the Campbell fight to know who would have won is so weak it's almost funny. Because, what, Campbell would suddenly for the first time EVER get STRONGER instead of gassing out and barely stumbling around in the late rounds, and Bradley for the first time EVER would have gotten really tired later on instead of his usual throw a million punches all fight? Would this have happened because of all of Campbell's good "early work" to the head and body of Bradley? Campbell's "early work" in the fight consisted of hitting Bradley's fists with his head and body. Repeatedly.

I think in addition Bradley has proven that his chin and recovery powers are extraordinary, as he's been pounded with some great punches and he just gets up and gets even more busy. So even if Campbell would have landed the lucky bomb, I think Bradley gets up and continues. That fight started in the perfect way for Bradley to crush Campbell, and if you don't agree then you disagree with Nate himself who showed with his actions that he felt there was no way he was going to win that fight.

Bradley IS very good. He will of course get beat down the road, since he is not all-time great material IMO, but he is now past the point in his career where a fighter like Campbell poses a threat to him.

 

Come on !!!

By your logic there's a whole set of fights, probably the majority of them when you break it down, that don't even need to be finished. According to you, there'd be thousands of fights that it'd be fair for the referee simply to end because after a few rounds, one guy happens to have won every round.

Also, I don't think anyone would've expected Nate to win by a lucky punch. Rather, if he did manage to win, it'd be by wearing Bradley down over the long haul. His efforts to do this were clearly not exhausted by the time the fight was stopped.

Also, you act like since Bradley, a young and relatively inexperienced fighter when it comes to fighting at the level he's fighting at now, has never tired going down the stretch that he won't possibly ever? I'm sure you're familiar with the expression, "there's a first time for everything?" Why don't you just say that Bradley couldn't possibly lose because he's never lost?

Also, Campbell was losing early to Diaz too. And any fighter is going to take time to adjust to Bradley's hand-speed.

If you know who's going to win many fights before they're half over I trust you turn off a large number of fights half-way through. Is that true?

Sure, based on what we saw you have to think Bradley ends up winning. But in no way was it a foregone conclusion.

 

By that logic we could have just turned off the fight after round 1 of Marquez-Pacman right? After the 3 kd's in the first round it was obvious Marquez was gonna be knocked out and dominated, no use in it going on right? People can get figured out...even if it looks horrible in the first few rounds...

 

I think Campbell was going to get beat, but it's not really his fault. I blame it on father time. Campbell is just too old now to beat the top dogs. I can't see Nate getting stopped by Bradley either, unless Nate quits on his stool. Nate isn't the kind of fighter that gets KO'd, or punished to the point of a referree stoppage, he's way too tough for that. It could happen but it'd take an alltime great fighter who's dominating him for the ref to stop it. It won't happen with a guy like Bradley.

I liked what Nate said about the refs and getting rid of the bad officials and judges. It was really cool to hear him give props to a good ref who really deserved it like that.
