No **** Oscar was a different fight.atsch Oscar was completely washed up fighter who was dead at the weight. Bradley is a young fighter with some decent skills and speed to boot. No way Pac was going to get away with too many feints or dart in and out unscathed against Bradley. Holy ****atsch
So because pac ****ing bounced around more while Oscar stood there and did nothing means it was a different fight atsch Maybe Bradley made it a different fight. christtttt
Bro, your the dumbass who said "He fought like he did against Oscar." He didn't fight anything like he did Oscar. So what r u even talkin about?
He did. Lead left hands, right hand off of the spin out, he did it all night. just like against oscar just cause pac wasn't all herky jerky head movement to avoid a feather fisted junior welter's punches this time doesn't mean it wasn't a similar plan.
Lead left hands, right hands, etc? Jesus, so he fought just like he always did Why single out Oscar then? :huh
He fought in spurts against oscar just like he did with Bradley that's why. Even his cheerleaders admitted it.
Given his style and attributes I disagree. Take a fighter that relies on aggression and athleticism as much as Pac does and tell me at what level you think he is when he's 33 years old. Chavez, Dempsey, Marciano, Tyson, etc. The list goes on.
I blame Roach honestly... he trained Pac as if Bradley was like Hatton and was going to run at him with his head all day, so they figured he would get counterpunched all night until he gets KO'd like hatton. They didnt have a plan B tbh and Pac doesnt have good adaptability in the ring, especially if someone is boxing. on their toes giving him movement. If Bradley continued to walk forward he wouldve got KO'd. I thik people are vastly overrating this decline. Pac is still great, just a little bit slower and is a more controlled fighter.. he is actually a better boxer than he once was, his defense is really good and he is a good ounterpuncher. But this decline **** is annoying. For instance, when Pac was fighting mosley and mosley was trying to bring the fight to pac, he got KD. If he had continued he wouldve got stopped for the first time in his career. But he decided to run away, back peddle the whole night. And of course this mad Pac look bad, because he simply does not know how to cut off the ring effectively from someone who is giving him movement. Against Marquez he always struggles, and against bradley, when bradley was bringing the fight to pac he was on his way to getting stopped, but then he stopped.
I don't remember Mosley ever "bringing the fight" to Pac. If it means anything, I thought Pac looked much better against Mosley than Bradley.
This whole thread is yet more "proof" that Pac was purposely taking it easy on Bradley. If you watch the fight again, specifically with this in mind, it's incredibly obvious. The fix was in, all-around, not just with the judges.
^ The poor naive sap who just bends over and takes whatever they dish out right up his ass. How exactly does that feel?
