    Tim stole that 'X have tried, X come up short' line.
    Also where was Tims toughness when Khan clowned him last year?
    He's got no chance, Pacquiao by KO.

    Bradley's corner will play a huge part in the fight. They're not experienced enough to deal with this type of pressure. And like Roach said, once Tim is hit, he will fall back to just trading with Manny.

    I like Tim.... I wish him luck because I think he needs it to win. I know anything can happen in this sport but Tim is getting a lot of Hype going in to this step up in his career.

    I'm interested to see this fight and what excuses there will be if Pac dominates Tim? Right now Tim is being put on this level he's never proven to be at....if he loses the way I think he will I'm guessing we will see a bunch of retractions coming from the folks claiming he will beat Pac.

    The only unknown is if Tim will Have more power at WW. I wouldn't count on that though. Still, not cutting 7 pounds could be a huge energy boost for him come fight night.

    I'm not sure what to think. I think Bradley should try to employ a strategy that involves counterpunching and movement, but he would need to focus this camp on sharpness and accuracy.

    He does have speed, but he lacks impact. He has shown a warrior mentality, but he has not gone up against a warrior like Pacquaio. I do believe that his own self belief is high, and he has one of the best aggressive defenses in the game in my opinion, but he does not bring the power to concussively hurt his opponent, and perhaps not enough to prevent them from landing.

    If Pacquaio lands, he will make an impact. If Pacquaio adapts to Bradley's strategy, he may end up punishing Bradley if Bradley truly desires to go out on his shield.

    I don't know what Bradley has been working on, I do know he's fast and can land punches, but if he doesn't have that impact, I don't think he can win the fight.

    Against another opponent that lacks impact, perhaps, but that's a big vulnerability when you're in there with a puncher like Pacquaio.

    This could be a fight. I think the strategy is to get on his wheels, but if Bradley decides to trade, there will be fireworks.

    We can only hope that the ref stops it at a reasonable time or the corner throws the towel if it gets to that point.

    How many times do people have to see big underdogs look and talk tough in interviews, faceoffs, and staredowns and subsequently get savagely KOed before they realize that demeanor before the fight means about **** all?

    Bradley is a good fighter though.

    He was pretty much dominating Alexander, although fighting dirty if intentional or not, and dominating Peterson, putting the pressure on Holt, putting out the fire of what was left burning of Junior Witter, and taking Abregu's undefeated record.

    Bradley is offensively versatile and defensively sound. I have not seen him against the ropes, but so far, no opponent has had success in pushing him there.

    So the jury is still out.

    The one thing that may keep him from winning this fight is his lack of impact punching.

    He has shown an abundance of skill with a wide range of styles presented from his opposition.

    Bradley comes forward in straight lines, leads with the head, and tries to rough house inside. Pac feasts on fighters like that and only has trouble with guys who can move laterally and counter accurately. This is not Bradley. Bradley is going to be Hatton'd and then everyone will think Pac is a god again and actually start believing that he has a snowball's chance in hell of beating Money May.

    I suggest you watch Bradley vs Peterson if you believe what you just wrote.

    Does anybody think this guy looks like an easy fighter to beat?

    Now Compare to Khan and tell me this isn't the fighter to beat at 140.
