Whatever sliver of respect I had for Bradley went flying through the window. He should've stayed quiet inside his home clutching his hollow title and worthless belt. To have the audacity to mention Pac being afraid of him....seriously? Just keep quiet Tim, count your blessings if you even get into a Super Fight undercard, and slowly fade into obscurity. Less than 1% of the boxing community will miss you, and the vast majority of that 1% just use you to troll threads.
I do think there is a little fear in Pacquiao's camp. Does not matter how many times they fight, Manny will not look good against Bradley in victory or defeat. Bradley does have a style hat gave Pacquiao problems, and I'm sure that once Pacquiao's team reviewed the fight, they saw things that's making them tentative to go into an immediate rematch. Some people will say they are tentative because of poor PPV ratings, I say BS, Bradley is a problem for Pacquiao and they no it. If you feel you beat a guy as thoroughly as many people think you did, and got robbed of the decision, why wouldn't you be licking your chops at the opportunity to prove it was a terrible decision, by doing it in a more resounding fashion? Bad PPV right?!
Fraudley is delusional! He talks all the smack and he showed NOTHING but his ability to run away from Pac. Ill love for Pac to KO the **** out of him and Im not even a Pac fan!
@ Primera I'm as real as they come. It should be an easy decision, you fight guy who took your belt, bad decision or not! If I remember correctly, before the fight there was talk of a rematch clause, what happened? The decision should be easy.
No fear at all, simply a gracious show of love and respect for his fellow man that provide yet another sterling example of Pacquiao's greatness. Pacquiao's a gentlemen and doesn't want Tim being crippled on his account. Despite Manny being a good sport and taking it easy on Bradley by fighting as hard as if it were a normal sparring match, young Bradley was still left as though he were entering a costume contest as FDR after the proceedings. A rematch, and there's no less than a 87% chance he's laid up like the BET version of Professor X for life. Bradley's heart is simply too big for his fragile glass legs, and it's up to Manny to do the honorable thing and protect Bradley from himself. Sometimes, it takes more courage to walk away. There is simply no honor in ruining poor Timmy's life for the sake of petty revenge and a trinket belt.
There's definately fear from Pacquiao camp. Or else he would have made the decision to fight Bradley immeadiately. Does Pacquiao fear Bradley in a physical sense, I doubt it, but he does fear him in a business sense. Despite the decision that was given to Bradley, Pacquiao can't afford to make a bad decision about who he fights next unless it's Mayweather, because another loss all but completely ruins any chance of a Mayweather fight, and Bradley is a threat. Why do you think they are so interested in fighting Cotto at a catchweight, with Bradley and Marquez being the 2nd and 3rd option? Could it be that of those 3 opponents, Cotto is the only one Pacquiao stopped?
Pac won convincingly, book closed, a rematch means nothing, pac gets his title back and a 117-111 ud, this proves nothing and brings pac no closer to a Mayweather fight. If i was pac id clear up the marquez debate and get a solid win, put him on better ground to make Pacquiao v Mayweather next spring
What you haters fail to realize is this is like asking for FMJ vs Cotto part 2. Sure Cotto was the most successful boxer to ever face Mayweather in recent years, but do you honestly want to see that nearly one sided beatdown again? Problem is, the "landslide Manny win crowd" is about 90% of, well, the boxing relevant part of the world. Out of curiosity, what rounds did you give to Bradley?
So his legs are ok now? No surgery or nothing....shocking. I'm really glad that they won't give it to him, he doesn't deserve jack sh1t.
2, 7, 10, 11, 12 Aside from those, I thought 1,5,8,9 were close enough to go either way... I thought Manny won 3, 4, and 6 very clearly, matter of fact he won those rounds more clearly than Tim won any round but the rest were rounds that depending on perspective could have gone either way.
