You got to be a Pac fan to sit through either of those fights, both fights got to be the sloppiest, most amateurish match up of so called top rated fighters I've ever seen! How Pac fans on this forum brag about Bradley as some great achievement for Pac is astounding. Manny looked like **** in both of these fights, he got a broke ankle guy in front of him twice and is too sloppy and inaccurate to do anything about it. So they are 1 and 1, should be 0-0, neither deserve to be called a winner after these crap performances!
Pac fighting an undefeated prime slick p4p top 5 Bradley and you have the nerve to create this crappy thread
Yeah, I kinda have to agree. I know Bradley was undefeated and all, but I think his skill set is actually pretty amateur. He wings his punches, he doesn't really counter anything. His version of outboxing someone is really just fighting negative and awkward. Pacquiao really needs to learn how to cut off the ring though.
Did you just say Bradley and slick in the same sentence? Slick fighters don't fight like out of control amateurs, you can hype up Bradley's "stats" all you want, fact is he fought like an idiot and Pac was barely any better. Both should be removed from the P4P list after those pathetic performances..
They weren't horrible. And Bradley vs Pac 2 was a far better fight than Mayweather vs Maidanna was in September. To be honest I think the only reason the first fight between the two took place was for Bob Arum to push a new rising "star" and keep riding the cash cow until he goes dry. For whatever reason the judges gave the first to Bradley and after Pac dominated another Arum hype job in Rios he was then awarded his rematch (that no one wanted, but was marketed as a mega rematch only because Bob is running out of cans for pac to fight) with bradley. Look at the Algieri fight....No one cares, no one wants it, people just moan. Fact is, Bob isnt trusting what he can do with Pacquiao anymore, so he's searching high and low in the most desperate ways possible to give us fights that either A: Create a new star if they beat Pac...or B: Make pac look like the monster he once was. Side note: I really did love to see bobs showcase fights with Alvarado vs Bradley and Pacquiao vs Marquez backfire REALLY REALLY HARD.....And I'm a Pacquiao fan. End of story, **** Bob Arum.
To me they were horrible, I could hardly watch it, some of the worse boxing ever, I don't think May-Maidana was exciting but Floyd was great in that fight, his strategy and accuracy was beautiful to witness. My problem with Pac and Bradley is the complete lack of strategy and accuracy... they put on a slopfest, no clean punching, no mastery of the art.
I agree bro. Those fights were so sloppy. now you know why Pac hasnt fought anybody slick, because he looks like a fool! hence why im sure he ducked the Mayweather fight, would've had not shot in there primes. Pac's last years are garbage, espcially for an ATG! The bradley fights were sloppy as hell, Rios was a cupcake and now hes fighting Algeri...can we get a WW.... :--(
I agree again :good Pac when in there and does what he always does...throw wild combos and miss alot. Then you have Bradley just going for a KO which makes him look like a dumb A$$ because hes only got like 10 ko's/ Mayweather-Maidana 2 wasnt exciting but Mayweather had great footwro, great defense, great body work thats underrated. good boxing for the eyes.
They weren't GREAT fights to watch no. I agree. But what I will say is that Bradley would dominate Maidana and is easily light years better than Chino.
I wouldnt trust Bradley over Miadana. he would be favored but Maidana has got better. and if he can touch Mayweather some then he can hurt and possibly KO Bradley. would like to see it either way though :good
Their styles don't make for a beautiful fight. Bradley looked great in with Marquez. Pac looked great in with Cotto. But, they looked pretty sloppy in with each other. Pac has problems hitting a moving target and Bradley has problems with speed like Pac's.
good choice of opponent for once bradley did not deserve the first fight tho.. ****ing idiot ducked khan for ages that really pissed me off because at the time it was my "megafight". second fight was ****ing scrappy by both fighters.. bradley had the lead going into the 5th round boxing well, then for some reason starting loading up on massive shots thinking he could knock pac out? ****ing stupid... very scrappy fight. atleast with marquez and pac u get good exchanges
Aww, poor Mayweather fans are butthurt again. Bradley is better than all of Floyd's opponents in the last few years. He should stick to fighting slow plodding fighters he's been feasting on.
