Post Fight Analysis: Timothy Bradley vs Juan Maneul Marquez: Bradley by SD

   After a perfect performance Timothy "Desert Storm" Bradley (31-0-0(12 KO) stays unbeaten and protects his WBO welterweight title against Mexican boxing legend Juan Manuel Marquez (55-7-1(40 KO) by a close split decision. Judges scored 115-113, 112-116; 113-115, for Bradley. The judge that scored 115-113 for Marquez was watching some other fight I believe, because his result has nothing in common with the the action that happened in the ring. I mean Bradley came to the fight with a perfect boxing plan how to beat counter-puncher Marquez and he followed that plan for all 12 rounds, while Marquez was eating jabs for all 12 rounds and was looking to land that one punch that can change everything.

 The plan of the fight was clear from the beginning. Bradley was afraid of Marquez power so he started the fight with fast in and out hitting Marquez with his jab and sometimes landing his fast combinations. Marquez was chasing Bradley all over the ring, but Bradley had an excellent foot work and was able to avoid Marquez aggression. Marquez was landing very few shots. I mean if you saw one round, you can say that you saw first 10. It was the same scenario. 
 
   Bradley moves better, comes in, lands his jab and goes out fast. Marquez tries to catch him in his way in but is too slow and hits the air. Marquez was able to catch Bradley in every round and land 1-2 big shots, but it happened so rare that sometimes it looked like only Bradley is boxing and Marquez just taking punishment.
