I am stupid and I am picking Bradly To Win Over Pacquaio

Bradley wasn't able to counter a Pacquiao who was very clearly cruising and playin' with him.

 

Let us assume that he was not bs-ing us and he indeed was having issues with his ankles.
Unless you are part of the minority who believes that Bradley won more than 4 rounds, add the fact that Pac was just toying with Bradley (remember he did wink at HBO's crew), the difference in skill was simply too vast.

I want to be surprised by Bradley, that is I want him to be able to keep it up with Pac, but as far as their first encounter is concerned, I just don't see that happening.
Even if Pac decides to pull a Rios-esque strategy on him, Bradley will be hard pressed to land anything significant.
The fact that he isn't a big puncher would further lead the judges to score round per round to Pac.

I agree that Bradley is a freak of nature, but not with speed, not with reacting to speed.
His heart and determination is iron and his chin is somewhat granite, his IQ pretty high, he was able to execute a masterful performance against JMM, but let us not get carried away with that.

Pacquiao is no JMM.
He is still fast, far too fast for Bradley, has solid punching power and can and will box circles around Bradley if he decides to.
Bradley doesn't know how to counter off the back foot nor move to his side to take out Pac's left.
He hasn't timed Pac yet with his jab, he was often countered by Pac's lead left when they first fought.

Bradley needs to put these at the back of his mind as well.

But hey, I am all in for a good fight. If Bradley looks good and Pac still manages to pull through a win then none of the tards in these boards can take away Pac's due accolades.

 

Pac will win................

 

Bradley's jab was getting countered by Pac's lead left.

PLEASE WATCH THAT GIF.
And when he pushes the action, this happens:

That kept on happening when Pac was being serious.

And BRADLEY DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO FIGHT OFF HIS BACK FOOT.

That's not the way to fight against Pac.
You need to move laterally.

Bradley just kept on getting beaten to the punch, like this:

Am I the only one here who actually see these things?
You all keep on saying that Bradley has a chance based on their first fight but any sane human being will watch that and say Bradley was simply being outclassed and beaten to the punch.

I mean seriously, this Bradley:

Has a "very good chance" at beating Pacquiao?

I've said it over and over again, if you are gonna base it on their first fight, you know that Bradley is **** compared to Pac.

 

This really is a 50/50 fight and probably the closest fight we've had in a very long time. I don't know who to pick. When it was first announced I said Pacquiao but now I'm starting to lean towards Bradley after seeing Pac in interviews he just doesn't look as hungry as he did. I don't know, this could be a draw.

 

I'm in agreement with u saying Bradley is inferior to Pac and that the first fight told the story. Anybody picking Bradley based off of anything other than the Championship rounds of the first fight DKSAB.

But ur way of showing it is all wrong... Ur showing highlights of the fight, that doesn't prove anything. I could post a bunch of gifs of Bradley cracking Pac and tell u that he won (in fact there's a famous Youtube video that does this exact thing)

And for the part that I highlighted... Bradley is at his best when fighting on the back foot. You're basing this off of THE ONE AND ONLY fight where fighting off the backfoot didn't work out for him

I mean, his next 2 fights??

 

But I have been saying this whole time, what are they talking about? How is this fight any closer than it was the first time around?

 

if pac was fighting at his most capable in their first fight - i think the second could easilly go in favour of bradley -he needs to use his jab more, he was landing with the jab a decent amount but was wary of pacs counters

however, if pac was capable of unloading more (as per every last 1:30 of each round) then bradleys in trouble in this one

i cant see pac holding back considering how much he was coming out on top of nearly every exchange when he did try

7-5 for pac this time round

 

That's exactly what I meant -- Bradley can't fight off his backfoot AGAINST Pac because Pac is simply too fast and he can't roll with the punches since they are hard hitting too.
He did that quite masterfully against JMM (rolling with the punches), but JMM is waaay too slow compared to Pac. That is why I've shown the GIF's. Bradley was getting ready to counter but already the second punch is hitting him squarely on the jaw.
He can't handle Pac's speed.
His best chance is capitalize on those moments when Pac is resting.

Again, Pac and Provo/JMM fight way too differently for us to have any substantial proof that Bradley will suddenly do what he did to JMM to Pac.

And please, provide a youtube video that shows Bradley being able to counter Pac. It simply didn't happen, at least not when Pac was still not bored.
He was only hitting Pac with sloppy double pump jabs and Pac didn't even mind them the slightest bit. Much of those jabs were hitting Pac on the arms too.
Go on, I will wait.

 

Bradley...pacman will be trying to prove a point. But will make mistakes in the process and Bradley will capatlize.

 

your all ****ing nuts.

 

I think Bradley has a good chance to win and actually deserve it this time. The reign of the Pac Man is over unfortunately.

 

He actually rolled them pretty good in the first fight. He's not gonna fool anyone into thinking he didn't land, but he'll definitely take off that majority of the sting... Or at least he did in the first fight.

Sure

I feel like ur talking to someone else here, cause I never said anything about him countering Pac. But since u asked...

I can't post links, but look it up... One is called HBO a tale of nuthuggery, and the other is called Timothy Bradley Highlights (someone made a thread about it recently). If u didn't know any better, those videos would make u think Bradley won clearly. Anyway, stop waiting and get searching
