Bradley vs Alexander

[V3r1f13d]

Bradley -220
Alexander +180

Going with Bradley by the way of nutrition and stamina.
I think Bradley just does about everything a little better than Alexander, minus power.

Not good....

Tim Bradley Fights The Flu as Devon Alexander Bout Nears
By Lem Satterfield

WBO junior welterweight king Tim Bradley is battling a minor case of the flu as he trains for his HBO televised, Jan. 29 clash opposite WBC titlist Devon Alexander that is slated for the Pontiac Silverdome in Pontiac, Mich. Bradley (26-0, 11 knockouts) will not allow the flu to interfere with his training for Alexander (21-0, 13 KOs), and has no intention of withdrawing from the fight. He believes everything will be 100% come fight night.

"I've got this flu. I'm trying to get out of this flu bug. That's not good, but I'm still going to fight, though. No excuses. I ain't going to turn this fight down, even if I'm sick in the ring, I'm still going to fight. I'm resting. Lots of resting. But training camp is still going on strong. I'm still fighting and I feel I'm getting my strength back. I'm getting toward the final stages of this flu," Bradley said. "My nose is still stopped up and everything, but I'm still feeling good and feeling strong. My weight is good and I'm just ready to go."

Bradley has already begun to pick up his training. He plans to do at least 15 rounds of sparring on Saturday and says everything will be normal as he enters fight week.

"Actually, I just ran this morning for about 45 minutes, and I am about to go into training at the gym. I should be at the gym at around noon. I've already started to tapering off with the sparring due to the fact that I'm a little under the weather. I'm tapering down right now, and I'll close on Saturday and do about 15 rounds of sparring on Saturday. But, you know, right now, I'm going about three times a week. I will be sparring today, and that's about six rounds today. But I'm going to be alright. I'm going to be alright."

Good luck here Ver, we'll see how the line moves until fight night - though with that flu, I might take the doggie. We will see.

Alexander's camp came back stating Bradley is making pre-excuses and that Alexander had a flu too but they didn't make a big deal about it or even announce it. Basically bashing Bradley's camp for making an announcement about it.

So it may be even playing grounds at this point.

Looks like line down a bit, -200/+160 now at BetUS. Good luck whichever way you go!!!

I put 1.5 to pay .75 on Bradley

Want to leave some breathing week for next weeks SB.
Hyped about Donaire vs Montiel as well.

Shameful way to end a fight this meaningful but I'll take it :beerbang:

Just read a quick recap about the TKO by headbutt. At least you won; a win is a win. Sounds like a rematch in the works, or else he wants Amir Khan afterwards. Wow, what a fight that would be.
