Bradley delivers masterclass to blunt Mexican Marquez and retain world titleBy Martin Domin - dailymail.co.uk Timothy Bradley added Juan Manuel Marquez's illustrious name to his increasingly-impressive resume in Las Vegas on Saturday night as he prevented the Mexican becoming a five-weight world champion.

Damage: Bradley unleashes a right hook which catches Marquez on the cheek Struggling: Marquez's hair goes flying as he can't avoid Bradley's vicious hands And Marquez barely landed a shot in the fifth session as the younger man kept his poise and the end of each three-minute spell was marked by the contrast in the celebrating Bradley and his ever more frustrated opponent. Champion: Bradley fought a mature fight, convincing two of the three judges he deserved the win The fight exploded into life midway through the 10th session as Bradley engaged momentarily only to immediately retreat, as if realising his folly. With six minutes remaining, Marquez had little option but to go for broke but the risks brought few rewards as Bradley took advantage on the counter. One of the world's best: It is now 31 fights unbeaten for the American |
