This is a war.

Bradley fighting like a fool, he usually has a high fight IQ. He doesn't have the pop to go toe to toe with guys.

Provodnikov may have punched himself already, might be Bradley best chance to get back in the fight.

That fight could have easily been stopped in the 12th, Bradley was dead on his feet.

Should have been a majority draw if they scored the first round knockdown correctly.

Early favorite for Fight of the Year though

BRONER ARRESTED!!!

Former boxer Mike Tyson isn't the only slugger with a biting problem.

Adrien "The Problem" Broner, 23, the youngest world champion boxer and a HBO ring star, was arrested Monday after reportedly biting another man at Miami Beach's luxurious Fontainebleau Hotel.

According to the arrest report, Broner got into a fight with a man named Michael Owensby around 3:30 a.m. on the hotel's valet ramp. When two security employees tried to break up the fight, Broner allegedly bit one of the guards on the right forearm.

When police arrived, hotel security already had Broner in custody. He told police he did not hit anyone, and officers note they saw a bite wound on the victim's arm.

The police report lists Broner as under the influence of alcohol at the time of his arrest.

Broner has skills, but he needs to do his fighting in the ring. That's the only place, he'll get paid to fight. This other drama outside of the ring is just making him look foolish.

RING TV.com has been informed that IBF junior welterweight titleholder Lamont Peterson has tested positive for the substance Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG), according to sources familiar with the fighter's post-fight results following last month's unanimous decision over ex-beltolder Kendall Holt at the D.C. Amory in Washington, D.C.

HCG is known as a women's fertility drug. In May of 2009, Los Angeles' Dodgers Manny Ramirez was issued a 50-game suspension from Major League Baseball for using HCG.

Ramirez claimed that he was using HCG, also known as a method used for weight-loss, based on a doctor's reccommendation.

The result was revealed in the official documents released by the D.C. Boxing and Wrestling Commission's Administrator, Sheldon J. Brown, to IBF President Daryl Peoples on Wednesday.

The urine tests were administered by a World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) affiliate based in Salt Lake City, Utah. The new information serves as a contrast to that initially isssued by Brown after Peterson's victory over Holt on Feb. 22. At first, Brown had informed both camps that Peterson's results had returned negative, according to a written notification from Brown that was issued to both fighters' camps.

Brown's notification alone, however, referring to the negative testing had not been assurance enough, at least, for Peoples and Holt's attorney, Pat English, who had demanded to see the official documents that were received by Peoples on Wednesday, according to IBF public relations director Jeanette Salazar.

English and Peoples had insisted on clarity given Peterson's failed drug test last March that was contractually administered at Peterson's request by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA).

Peterson came up dirty for synthetic testosterone, which forced the cancelation of a rematch wiith Amir Khan, from whom he won his current belt in December of 2011 -- one month after having received the testosterone injections.

Although the WBA stripped Peterson in the wake of his infraction, the IBF stuck by him after a review of his medical records by IBF-appointed doctors ruled that the testosterone levels discovered in Peterson were not at a level that would enhance his performance.

Having signed with Golden Boy Promotions in January, Peterson is scheduled to make a defense of his belt against RING No. 1-rated 140-pounder Lucas Matthysse on May 18 at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City on Showtime.

Thats twice for Peterson, get these cheaters out of here.

Boxer Robert Guerrero, who is slated to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. on May 4 in the main event of a Showtime pay-per-view card at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas, was arrested Thursday morning at New York's John F. Kennedy Airport for attempting to board an airplane with a handgun.

Not a smart move for Guerrero!!! Hope the fight goes on as scheduled. Can't wait to see the Showtime Boxing lead-up for this fight.

*** Lamont is a dummy. Tired of folks cheating. Makes it hard to be a fan when folks cheat like this.

I'm out of words for how good this fight is. Bradley/Provonikov was beyond great and this fight is trumping it soundly.

I have Alvarado up by a slim margin, hard rounds to score.

Selfishly, I want Alvarado to win so we get a trilogy.

I have it 116-112 for Alvarado, I won't call it robbery if he loses, but I feel as though he won enough of the later rounds to secure a decision.

thank you judges for getting this one right

I don't care where they fight, I'm going to the 3rd fight

Brandon Rios might be clinically insane.
