    I can see Bradley being hesitant to get in on the action but rushing in once in a while trying to land a flurry (most of which he'll miss) and Pacquiao having problems cutting off the ring but winning a wide UD anyway :dead

    Its gonna end up like Pac/Hatton..hopefully. If Bradley is smart he watches tape of JMM and of course Erik Morales.

    I see Bradley being very defensive in the first part – draining Pacquiao of early success. Upper body, head movement, circling away from his dangerous left, will be the key. And then, when Pacquiao’s frustrated, dejected (maybe even suffering cramps again) and is at his least dangerous, Bradley will take the fight to him to score some rounds. Ultimately, his plan will be to cage Pacquiao’s menace, and zap him of his confidence. A Pacquiao in such a state is not that dangerous of a guy to go to war with. As long as you counter him whilst NOT allowing him to land anything of his own, he’s powerless.

    No way does Bradley allow Pac to dominate him.

    So yeah, it could end up like Pac-Mosley if Bradley fails to take the fight to him because he's worried about Pac's power. Or, it could end up being an uglier version of Pac-JMM III. I see the latter being the most likely.

    Oh, and I see headbutts possibly ruining this fight.

    I highly, highly, highly doubt it will resemble the Mosley fight.

    I can't see it. Mosley was at the end of the road, Bradley will see this as a major step up the mountain to superstardom. He could get overwhelmed by the occasion and be in trouble early, but I think once he settles he'll put his head down (No pun intended :smoke) and go for it.

    If it happens that way (wich I don't believe), it won't go the distance like the Pac vs Mosley bout... Bratley's balloonhead will explode well before R12 in that scenario.

    Nope no way!

    I hate it when people try compare this to Mosley, no way is it gonna be like this.

    Bradley will have a gameplan to win, Mosley's gameplan was to survive and collect his paycheck.

    Bradley is so wide open when he tries to engage he is gonna catch a straight left down the pipe

    I hope Pac makes him pay for his headbutts

    I think Bradley's defence is underrated.

    I think Timothy Bradley can win this fight. I don't see it being an easy fight for Manny Pacquiao.

    I agree and what makes him a bigger threat is that he can adjust very well and we all know with Roach fighters (especially recently) that they find it hard to adjust when Plan A doesnt work.

    That is what is going to make this a very interesting fight.

    Also Bradley is the hungriest fighter out there and i mean the HUNGRIEST, his desire and determination to win is going to be the difference and Im sure he will walk out remaining undefeated. Which Arum will use in his advantage to make $$$$ of him.

    people need to watch more braldy fights. he is the best at 140 and one of the best at 147.
    better boxer then pacman by far, he is a fast fighter, good chin and a ton of energy.only thing is punching power im worried bout. if bradly can take pacman power it will be a long night for manny. 50/50 fight to me.

    Alls he has to do is copy what Marquez does.

    Its really easy. Step back and land 3 punch combos. Be an aggresive counter puncher.

    I think I could beat Manny.
