    I was rooting for Manny in hopes he will step up and make a deal with Floyd,but I feel it won't happen either due to Arum,money or other excuses so I'm hoping Bradley gets the win.... Manny wins then will build up some hype for Floyd,only to be dissapointed with no deal being made..

    If i didn't have money on this fight, i would want Pac to win. But +340 for Tim? you just can't resist but to take him.

    Actually a bit of a story there mate.We got it at school but no one gave a ****,but I had been watching the NBA finals through the night on a Saturday on BBC when Larry and Magic were going at it.It meant I was able to pick up a few things and stand out a bit.(not saying much)
    My PE teacher just happened to have connections with the Glasgow schools BB ****(he was about 6'6!) and kept asking me to try out for the area section to get in the main team.
    Eventually I relented and went along,but it was all the rich kids from their private schools(my mother never even knew I was going:-() and they all had the black Chuck Taylor's or more up to date Converse.I had my normal trainers (can't even remember what,but they weren't court shoes!:oops:) and felt like Denzel Washington at a Polish Klitschko fan convention.
    I did OK and they told me to come back for another practice,but I wasn't up for it.:|
    Who knows? I did grow to 5'7 and a half.:yep

    Rooted for Pac vs Margo.. Haven't rooted for him in any other fights since ODLH. This will be no different although this fight has me more excited than any of his others since Cotto at 145...

    I don't see how any rational person could hate Manny Pacquiao... Manny is just a cool dude! I guess Avid fans like myself are open to be hated on! Oh well... :bbb

    I feel you, Bradley is a very good effective fighter and he deserves credit regardless so I definetly could have worded things better but I do think it's obvious that Manny has slipped and his recent changes, religious mumbo jumbo and out of ring activities make me think his heart just might not be in it anymore and for someone with Pacs style of fighting he needs to be there 100% to bring it. My point wasn't to diss Bradley, I don't like his style but it's effective, my point was that stylistically Manny has a significant advantage in that Timmy cannot hurt him and comes right at a muther****er which plays into Pacs favor regardless of being elite or not (we can't say yay or nay yet on Bradley being elite as the jury's still out).

    I gotta disagree with the comparisons to B-Hop and Ward though, Bradley does not box as well as those guys and it's clear as day. They are miles ahead technically. technically Timmy is flawed in many areas and does a lot of **** you really shouldn't but has gotten way with it so far. He's nowhere near B-Hop or Ward as a technician, those guys are master technicicans which is why I love watching them despite them being spoilers and don't like watching Bradley so much.

    Bradley's will to win at all costs is his greatest asset but also the asset that's gonna lead to him getting KTFO'd by Pac since he's not gonna be ***** and resort to survival tactics when the going gets rough.
