    Alex Ariza talks about why manny looked smooth at the weigh ins, the deal with him warming up, and says that manny was expecting Bradley to be aggressive so when he wasnt, he believes manny got bored.

    how do u win a fight going backwards? it's called boxing. learn about the sport that pays ur bills alex. why was pac missing so much? why was he only fighting the last 30 secs of every round? why couldn't pac cut off the ring? is he not capable? bradley told everyone exactly what he was going to do...and apparently no one from pacs camp paid attention.

    A fairly stupid thing to say. Pac beat Bradley easily, but you don't have to be moving forward to win a fight.

    That is stupid, not everyone is agressive relentless machine we have boxers that don't want to go toe to toe so they box off the back foot and give movement does that Mean because he was walking backward at times PAC was walking him DOWN? **** NO! Does that mean Bradley was scared NOPE! IT's just a style, the good thing is bradley at times would stand toe to toe, and actually push PAC back at times so it's not some Broner type Performance against PDL.

    Only mistake Pac made: he didn't close the show.

    He needs to be more like Andre Bishop in Fight Night Champion and "bring his own judges."

    I don't know about you, but I feel bad about Bradley now that he is getting booed and all that, but more so what he would be facing on Nov 10th...doesn't look pretty now and doesn't look pretty then.
    -In other words, he should have taken the loss and said he was previously undefeated, but on Nov 10th, he's going to lose double: the belt and his undefeated record.
    -But wait, he never really "won" the belt. It was handed to him.

    That's why you're nothing more than a S&C coach Ariza.

    Stick to telling guys when to eat a bannana.

    I hate people who say that, fighters who box going backwards have more talent then the stupid block shots with their faces brawlers, ie abril/rios.

    So only the aggressors are capable of winning?

    You can of course, but it's not what Bradley did.

    fighting backwards is the best way to do against a good offensive fighter like pac. you can make your opponent lose patience and make a wrong move, and that's the only way you can strike back. Aint it right Juan?
