Hed be stupid not to, nothing wrong with running aslong as you remember to counter and get the round won too.
When I say run I mean box on the outside. I have no qualms with that but the point is it looks like Roach thinks Bradley will definitely be a come forward fighter when in fact it might not be the case
I cant see Bradley being the come forward fighter against Pacquiao and if it is then they will be revising their tactics after the 1st round.
Watch all Bradley fights and tell me he's not going to be the one on the front foot most of the times ! Pacquiao will be on the back foot, come closer to throw his quick combinations and get out... just like he did against Margarito. The problem is : Bradley is much faster and will be able to follow Pacquiao after his flurries, just like Morales did. I can't wait 'til this fight.
i think i'd be WAY more excited for this fight if i felt bradley had the power to scare pac a bit. i don't think he'll run, but he'll evade attacks.
Cotto won no more than 3 rounds, 4 at a stretch. Anyone that had that a draw was an idiot. Also, Manny didn't KO Cotto it was a TKO, big difference.
Seriously doubt it. I haven't seen Bradley run yet in any match. That's the reason why he was chosen. He won't back down and will get KOd. His only chance is using the almost pac-sized head of his.
Expect Bradley to go to Mannys body & when Manny leans to his left... "Bam!" Timmy lands the noggin uppercut.
I expect a good action packed fight but who can guarantee me that Tim is going to do better than Joshua who was as determined and as strong if not stronger than him, Margo surely was and even though way past their primes, Hoya, Shane and Cotto were not technically sound to do more like Tim is expected to?
Bardley is a forward moving fighter, but if he was smart he would follow the marquez gameplan and play counter puncher. Let manny over commit with that telegraphed right jab left straight combo he throws all night, move to the side and counter it. He runs runs right into counter right hands. He also sometimes likes to go into highguard like cotto and you can exploit that with an uppercut like marquez did so many times in the 3rd fight. ffs there are so many ways to beat pac
