He also won European Championship gold in 2022 but had to settle for silver at the bi-annual world championships after suffering a shock defeat to 34th seed Kwon Do-yun in Guadalajara, Mexico.
Speaking after his latest gold, Bradly said: “I came here with one job and that was to get my title back.
"Now I can officially say I’m a double world champion.”
Bradly, who started taekwondo aged four, came within seconds of winning a gold medal on his Olympics debut.
