    Yes but he still loses to Floyd-Floyd's style owns Pac's style...this will be seen and easily understood once Pacquiao quits running.

    Bradley is a great win for Pac-man.

    Hatton was a far bigger star at the time than bradley is now. Even in america hatton was a bigger attraction than bradley is now.

    You're funny. You make me laugh. Wasn't Cotto the preferred first choice for cockRoach?

    Irrelevant, neither have/had the negotiating power or attractiveness to bring Mayweather or Pacquiao down a weight class.

    Definitely deserves some credit. would have been more impressive at 140 regardless of Bradley being willing to fight at 147. At 147 Bradley is unproven.

    Not too unproven though (especially considering Pacquiao isn't a big WW). Pacquiao himself has risen through the weight classes, it would be hypocritical to now say that he is choosing smaller boxers...that's my point anyway.

    IF, he stops Timmy that would be an excellent achievement.

    I'm not bothered at all about the 147limit because they are essentially the same size anyway.

    Its a really good, competitive fight that I;m looking forward to.

    Win or lose, PAC fights hungry lions...nothing to lose he's already an ATG with a world record....weight ain't gonna save u from someone who has superior boxing skills...RJJ vs Ruiz?

    because cotto is more marketable and would bring in more money. what does this have to do with getting more credit for a win?

    NO

    Bradley is an overhyped bum

    Khan should have been KO'ing him in late december

    Bradley doesn't deserve the pac fight

    but Pac has little options atm.

    Timothy 'deserted stadium' Bradley would get KO'ed by Pacquiao and that is something I would be happy to put money on. and I never bet on boxing.
