    He is too slow

    Footwork and counterpunches slow.

    and no power


    Pacquiao would beat him again. Maybe by KO.

    I doubt it he looked just as open for the left as always and I don't think it's something he can easily correct.

    If Pacquiao can't land his straight left multiple times how can he KO Bradley? Bradley knows how to take away Pacquiao's straight left.

    It's over. Bradley has Pacquiao's number and it doesn't matter how many times they fight. If Pac's only chance is to load up hoping he lands a lucky punch he will telegraph all his punches and get counters all night.

    Either Bradley is wide open for the left and in that case we know Pacquiao can land it as many times as he wants and can't knock Bradley out, or Bradley's defense is so good that he's dialed in on Pacquiao's left and Pacquiao wont be able to knock Bradley out in the rematch.

    Either way in the rematch Bradley has every advantage now, even experience.

    I don't know, but I feel he did a clottey himself. Heard he has tax problems back home and that he could be running for senate next. Its a result we all didn't see coming

    Every fight..


    "MANNY WILL KNOCK THIS GUY THE **** OUT".


    Yet again.. his power at 147 is slightly overrated. He stuns guys early with the speed of his punches, but generally his opponents adjust to that and take the shots better as the fights go on.

    Manny's hands and feet are too fast to stay in front of him. Bradley ****ed himself over trying to exchange, when he should have stunk the joint out.

    It's quite a stretch to claim he has "every advantage" when he was just clearly beaten by a superior opponent. Pacquiao won around 9 rounds, imo, the fight was far from close. This is akin to claiming Cotto would beat Floyd in a rematch if that fight had ended in a similar robbery.

    If Bradley did that then he would have had a clear victory. But Bradley wanted to impress the fans and show his whiskers. He wanted to prove he could take Pacquiao's punch which he did but now people are acting like because Pacquiao landed his power punches that it's as if Bradley was floored by them.

    They are talking about this fight as if Bradley were knocked down multiple times and still won the fight.

    I still think Pac would win a rematch. But I do agree that Bradley learnt a great deal and may just become a major player in the boxing scene en la futuro.

    But Pac proved to be too fast and defensively sharper than Bradley. Which is why I had him 8-4

    How is Pacquiao going to beat Bradley now that he knows he can't KO him? Next fight he has to fight Bradley's fight.
