Point blank question: did you enjoy Bradley/Provo?

Mad respect for Bradley and Provo. . . As much as I dislike Bradley's style he got my respect for going all in. Even though it was the wrong kind of fight he didn't back down when he was forced to exchange. Most fighters would be clinching if they where that hurt but Bradley ****** it up and fired back. . . Same with Provo, dude came to win not just for a paycheck.

I'm too big a Bradley fan to enjoy it while it was happening. In the aftermath, I wished I was there to give them both a standing ovation.

Fantastic fight, made even better by the fact that no-one expected it to be so good. It's not the first time boxing has stumbled upon a great fight rather than consciously make it.
A lot of the post-fight stuff has been particularly ******, though. Especially all the "why all the hate for Bradley?" threads.
Firstly, Tim has never received as much love as he had after this fight. Secondly, he's hated like any elite fighter who looks flawed when he was supposed to look flawless, because the prevailing negativity that surrounds boxing has created a hyper-critical culture, even when the damn fight itself was remarkable.
