For Bradley, it's his second defense of his WBO Welterweight title. He defeated Ruslan Provodnikov in his first fight after claiming the title from Manny Pacquiao last year. That's one thing Marquez and Bradley can brag about, they have defeated Pacquiao on paper. Well, Bradley's is only true on paper as judges reviewed the fight and said Pacman should have won. However, Bradley kept the belt and is defending it tonight.
Marquez might have ended the whole drama behind Pacquia vs. Marquez in their last bout. With a broken nose, Marquez battled on. Pacquiao had the fight won, but with seconds left in the sixth round, Pacquiao dropped his guard and Marquez landed a powerful hook that sent the Filipino to the canvas. The fight was over and many question Pacquiao's return to the ring.
Now, Marquez makes his first return after almost a year off from the sport. At age 40, he will fight an undefeated Bradley who is 30-0 and 10 years younger. Does Marquez have some Floyd Mayweather Jr. in him? Mayweather Jr. defeated a Canelo Alvarez. who was 13 years younger than the undefeated American.
It's Bradley vs. Marquez later on tonight. Do not miss the live action tonight.
