I been seeing on Various threads people fantasizing on how easily a Pacquiao VS Bradley fight would be for PACQUIAO and that its not even necessary to have, it would be a waste of time because of how easy the fight would be for Pacquiao... Now I don't want to dis agree with you, I just want to know how exactly do you think the fight would play out? What do you see in Bradley's style that would make you believe this an easy fight for PAC? I'm just curious.
The problems for Bradley, as I see it: 1) He doesn't have the kind of power or elite counterpunching to make Pac pay for his offense. 2) Bradley's willingness to trade and lack of size would severely work against him against the man with superior physical tools, who also happens to be one of the best offensive fighters we've ever seen. 3) Bradley has excellent recovery, but I'm still not sold on his chin. I think the combination of his heart and his recovery would lead to him taking a massive beating in this fight.
Bradley is a very good, all-round fighter but I don't think he does anything exceptionally well. Pacquiao is faster, hits harder and is simply leagues above Bradley in terms of skill. I think Bradleys best, maybe only, chance is cutting Pac with one of his patented "accidental" headbutts. Pac has reacted very badly in the past to being cut and, if it throws him off his game enough, it's possible Bradley could out-hustle him. Really don't see it though.
Pacquiao has the speed, punches from different angles and sufficient power to counteract Bradley's strength when coming forward. Getting Bradley on the back foot would be half the battle in this fight and I'd back Pacquiao to do so. Bradley can fight on the move but in my opinion he is half the fighter when doing so, so I'd back Manny heavily, probably on points. Bradley could make it competitive for a bit but I doubt he would win
Bradley has NOTHING for Pac. Fight would be an absolute mismatch and isn't even remotely interesting to me.
Barring you lose your vison before they ever fight, all you need to do is watch, then take a vacation from ESB or ask the mods to delete this thread to avoid *******s from feasting on you like vultures feasting on a dead carcass.
When Pac destroys Bradley, OP will make a new thread titled: "Pac cherrypicked another overrated bum"
Lets put it this way , Hatton was way ahead of him in 2009 and I dont think Bradley has improved much. Will be over in 6 one sided rounds, where I can actually see bradley back pedalling more than Cotto did.
If Bradley beats Kahn this is the fight I want to see. It's very hard to come inside on Pacquiao, as Pacquiao has brilliant footwork and heavy arsenal. Still, if Bradley manages to do that to Kahn, you'd wonder if he'd be able to do the same on Pac. Much harder, but still.
I'm not a "fan" of any of the guys being discussed but I respect all of them, that being said I think Khan gives Manny hell and would be the guy to eventually beat him, assuming he doesn't fight PBF. I would hate to bet against Bradley because he's the guy that "should" lose any of his biggest fights, but he has a huge heart, is a fighter, and mentally very strong. Either way Pac beats Bradley, in a better than expected fight, but I think Khan outpoints Manny or perhaps stops him on a serious body shot late. Styles make fights, and I think Khan with his length, reach, and hand speed would be tough for Manny to handle.
