    When a guys not standing right in front if you and not there to be hit that happens. Like I Saud before the fight Bradley was just as good of an athlete as Pac was.

    He was fighting a guy who didn't fight in one spot the whole fight

    That's what happens when people air out what you been doing, they had to stop juicing him.

    Timothy Bradley has better stamina and workrate and was body punching which drained Pacquiao's stamina even more.

    Bradley looked tired halfway though the fight to be honest

    him getting older would be a valid excuse in my eyes because ive never believed manny was on peds till now. you dont go from 1200 punches to 700ish thats just not right. he wasnt willing to take the test when he was throwing them 100 punchs a round but now hes willing to GTFO to fishy for me in my eyes. now im about 70% sure he was on that stuff

    a few things:

    -He doesn't have to against these bigger guys, who dont have the stamina of guys like MAB, Morales, JMM

    -He's fighting at 147...his blitzing days were at 126-130...you're just not going to see that anymore

    -Yea, he's older now

    It was funny how people watched Manny v Margarito and thought he could just land at will v anyone.

    Bradley wasn't a stationary Clottey/Margarito where a 100 punches per round could easily be thrown in the comfort of them actually hitting and landing on something.

    Bradley was moving, bending and ducking a lot. If Pac applied that same workrate and pressure, he would have wasted a lot of punches and risked tiring himself out. He did the right thing in lowering his output and concentrating more on effective punching.
