Bradley: “I am going to whoop him”
This past tuesday undefeated World Boxing Organization (WBO) Welterweight Champion TIMOTHY BRADLEY Jr. hosted a media work out and an international Media Conference Call to discuss his upcoming historic world title collision with four-division world champion and Méxican icon Juan Manuel Márquez.
Bradley would go on to credit Marquez as the best fighter he has faced and shared his opinion that a win over him would put him atop everyone’s pound for pound list. “I want to be a part of Márquez’s legacy and by me beating Márquez, that right there will make me one of the top pound-for-pound fighters in the world. No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, wherever you want to place me. Márquez is probably the best fighter I will have ever faced in my career, by far,” said Bradley.
During his time speaking with the press Bradley would be asked if he was concerned by the judges, the current WBO welterweight champion would let everyone know that he’s not all concerned by that. Bradley feels he is going to obtain a clear victory and leave no doubt as to who is the better fighter. “Man, I am going to whoop his ass and the judges are going to give me the fight. Just like the U.S. government I am going to shut down Juan Manuel Márquez on October 12th. I am going to win the fight – that is the bottom line. I’m not concerned about any judges or any ref. I am going to get in there and do my job and beat Márquez. And that’s it. And the world’s going to see it.”
