    Its a very competitive fight, not quite a 50/50 but I think Bradley has a good chance in this.

    I give Bradley will give Pac a good fight but come up short. It will be ugly but competitive early on until Pac's cleaner work puts him in control.

    PAC on points.
     
  5. He'd lose a clear decision.

    Pacquiao wasn't particularly impressive against Marquez, but JMM is on a different level to Bradley IMO. I like Bradley don't get me wrong, but I wasn't that impressed with him against Casamayor, and I think his style suits Pacquiao to a certain degree.

    It's amazing how much Bradley's stock has raised since Khan lost to Peterson.

    Last year i thought this was a bit of a mismatch, and not a lot has changed my mind. Bradley is tough, but he isnt as good of a boxer as Marquez (who will perhaps always have Pacquiao's number), and he doesnt hit hard enough to deter Pac's onslaughts. Timmy's ducking at the waist will see him hit from every angle by the hard punching Pacquiao (who was pretty close to taking Mosley out). Bradley will be stopped around the 9th IMO.

    It is not quite a total mismatch that it was last year (Pac has slipped IMO), but I dont think it'll be close in the slightest

    good fight this, it has the makings of a real tear-up while it lasts, much more entertaining than floyd vs manny style wise, plenty of exchanges with bradley coming off worse.

    manny wins on points.

    If he comes forward head first as usual he gets KO'd early. If not it will go in a similar way to the Mosley fight. Fighting from the outside but with no real chance of landing his own shots through the fear of getting taken out himself.

    Bradley doesn't have the power to hurt Pacquiao and he doesn't have the counter punching or timing of Marquez. He's a good fighter with good powers of recover but that will only prolong the punishment IMO.


    So to answer the question, I don't fancy his his chances at all.

    Have you seen them fight?

    Because after the 1960s, technique has gotten a lot better, but with Pac on roids and Timmy's big head coming into effect, Mayweather definitely beats Cotto by decision :deal
