    "I walk around over at over 160 pounds. 147 pounds is my natural weight class. The fans will see that on June 9th".

    "The key is going to be if I can take his power. I will know early. I will know by the second round if I can take it. If I can, then Pacquiao is in for a long night,"

    "If I have a problem with his power, I will have a plan for that too. (Trainer) Joel (Diaz) is already working on a game plan. We go into every fight with a Plan A, B and C. We have different plans for different scenarios. I will be ready and I will be able to adjust in the ring," said Bradley.

    seemed pretty quick in the Marquez fight

    though i will say Bradley may be the fastest guy he has fought in quite some time maybe since moving up from 130

    Pac also is explosive and applies plenty of pressure

    Im not trying to go off on Manny but there is more to his game than power

    I like this fight i give Bradley a hell of a chance but he has to fight a perfect fight

    That's what I was getting at. He's not so much faster than Bradley that I think it's as much a factor of how well Bradley will take Pac's punching power.

    And if he can't take Pac's power, then he will be asleep like a baby after he tasted mama's milk for the 1st time!

    Joel Diaz is a fine and good trainer.

    Pac is going to have his hands full.

    I think Pac doesn't turn his full power on straight away in fights. So Bradley may think he can take Pac's punch for as long as Pac wants him to believe that. Until Pac decides to press 'launch'.:bokc

    bradly gone bring it, this will be a good fight. and i know bradly want have the power to stop him but he can outbox manny a few rds. but when they slug it out on the inside bradly has to be careful. if manny dont respect his punching power then bradly gone have to box from the outside and try to win that way. bradly is good enough for game plan a b c, he's gone need them all and a prime gatti chin with a little luck.
