    Sure why not. Cotto won a few rounds. It happens. Actually like Marquez did all night against Manny back in November. :yep

    :good cool i wonder if floyd has seen it? i dont blame him if he passes on that. none of those guys floyd has faced so far since his comeback have that power and speed. fight most likeley will never happen. its like what if type of scenario. what happens if pac beats me? pac probably thinks the same thing

    floyd probably doesn't care what manny does in training. only on fight night.

    also i think they will fight once and thats it.

    nah, dawg, i had pac winning that fight, too. 115-113. neccas think im crazy, but, everybody sees fights differently. nawhasayin

    floyd has slowed no doubt. if cotto could do that, pac would do a lot worse. pac is faster than cotto and hits just as hard

    I was banned for a month and was off this site for that long, I don't have the energy to make up ALTs...that's a ***** thing. Guess after June 9th, you'll be on here on your alt...too bad you'll have to come up with another profession that makes a lot of money right? :yep

    Pac didn't think he won. Mother****er couldn't even hold his hands up. Sore feet, cramps, hunger pains, Jinkee slapped him and much more. :lol:

    You act like Floyd never gets hit. He gets hit every fight. He has had his nose and mouth busted before. :patsch

    true, almost every fight since he came back. jmm was hitting him flush on the chin and jmm was out of shape in that fight. floyd has slowed down. mosleys old arse had him on ***** street. pac will do a lot worse, trust me

    Not fair to compare Pacquiao's training preparations/overcofidence pre-Marquez III to his preparations to Bradley. Bradley is no where near as good as Marquez and no one has the experience and consecutive success that Marquez had against Pacquiao.

    BTW, does anyone take anything they see for and against Bradley in his fights with Alexander, Casamayor, and Peterson that could help him against Pacquiao? Any tactics? Of course they're not complete preparation for Pac-man but surely something interesting can be taken from his performances in those fights for good and bad? Detalistic?

    Bradley has good mobility, and he can conceivably employ a Marquez type safe distance type of fight. How he can counter off of it is another question altogether.

    Along with countering, he doesn't utilize distance better than Marquez nor is the better offensive fighter. Don't think he has the tools to beat Pacquiao if it goes the distance but don't think he'll run either. Though I thought Mosley wouldn't run either?

    Credit to Pacquiao the guy is a beast and still had competive rds with Marquez who happens to be one of the greatest technicians now so that says Manny is skilled though very awkward and unconventional.

    Can't just say Bradley can utilize the same strategy, he ain't on Marquez level or as brilliant-minded. Would be surprised if it goes the decision and I have Bradley as the victor. Good fight and great win for Manny if he pulls it off.

    Bradley fights with feints, good pressure, and has an emphasis on speed. If he's patient, he can time Pacquiao with bursts of activity on the inside before circling out, and trying to assume lead foot positioning to get him off his game and counter. Marquez suggested he mix basically mix is own game-plan of lateral boxing with Bradley's usual style of ducking really low as he comes in to punish Manny. I don't think Bradley will pull it off, but he can be competitive. I'll be impressed if Manny knocks him out before 11; those that say Pacquiao likes pressure of all kinds generalize too much.
