    Of course.

    People are crazy to think Bradley will stand there and exchange with Pacquiao. He will have many strategies coming into this fight and will plan to confuse and go to the body with Manny early.

    Bradley will come on strong later on in the fight and will look score the rounds with his ring intelligence and agression late on. I think he will do more than enough to win by a majority or split decision.

    Bradley by Decision.

    I'm predicting he will lose. He doesn't have a single advantage in this fight except power, and Bradley is no Hatton. Bradley has a great chin. He was knocked down by a punch which would have knocked Pacquiao or most people out and he got up immediately and shook it off.

    The thing is Bradley would win the exchanges inside. Pacquiao isn't that good of a boxer on the outside either. I don't see how Pacquiao can win. He's going to become some sorta technical boxer? Pacquiao is a brawler pure and simple and he cannot bully Bradley, nor can he knock Bradley out, nor can he win in exchanges on the inside.

    I don't see how Pacquiao wins because he doesn't seem to have any advantage at all, not youth, not weight, not technique, nothing but maybe speed and he's been slowing down so he might not even have that.

    Mosley tried to out brawl a brawler. Bradley is a slick boxer. I suppose if Pacquiao makes easy work of Bradley we'd know he could beat Mayweather as Bradley is the best test.

    I think Bradley is the toughest fight Pacquiao has had probably in his entire career, even tougher than weight drained DLH.

    Well i am glad i am not the only one that views this as a very tough fight for Pac.

    And thats a good point Boxmaster. If Bradley takes it to the inside (which he can and will with his strength) how will Pac deal with this?

    Pac IMO is only good vs a fighter that fights in a way that suits him and is not the most adaptive fighter.

    This is going to be a good one!

    People are seriously underestimating Pacquiao :lol: and i hope the odds reflect that.
    No way will Bradley hurt Pacquiao. That means he will have to outbox him. :nut
    Bradley is no Marquez and Pacquiaos punches are more compact.
    Oh and lets not forget "I am not worried about the right hook, all he has is the straight left. Once i take that away he has nothing." That damn punk is ******ed and will get KO´d.

    Young durable dirty spoiling undefeated guy should give Pac a tough time. What's cool about Pac is everytime it's supposed to be a walk in the park he blows it and every time its supposed to be tough he makes it easy.

    Barrera 1 - underdog
    Morales 1 - massive favorite
    Barrera 2 - massive favorite
    Marquez 3 - massive favorite
    Larios - massive favorite (larios wobbled him and went the distance)
    Solis - massive favorite (Pac was frustrated at times)
    De Lahoya, Hatton, Cotto - should have had a tough time, easy wins
    Bradley - should have a very tough time.

    So if his pattern of consistently winning easy when he shouldn't and struggling when he shouldn't makes me feel great about this match up and any match ups with Floyd, Martinez, Hopkins, or Klitchshko.

    What has Bradley done to make some people think he will be a nigtmare for Pac I have no clue.. If you think Kendall Holt hurt him I dont even wanna imagine what manny will do. Manny is no shot to pieces Casamayor. I said before the Juan fight that I would not be surprised if Juan won. Tim is no Marquez.

    IDK I've only seen Bradley fight at 147 once, so who knows how his skills translate to 147. Also I've never seen him win a big fight without a head butt (just like clottey I mean the only reason his fight with cotto was close was cuz of that head butt). Now he could become a head butting legend like Holyfield. Who knows...
