The last time Pacquiao was robbed but this time it's Bradley who's gonna get robbed. He needs to KO Pacquiao to ends those controversies and to show the world that he's really better than Pacquiao. We all know that Bob Arum can take those judges to the most expensive resturant and hotel if they want. He will treat them like a king.
I actually agree with you that Brad'll probably have an unjustly hard time with the judges in the rematch. I think because of the controversy of the scoring the first fight there will be a kind of "reverse-prejudice" in favour of Pacquiao. It'd not be the first time something like this happens. Barrera unjustly got a UD against Morales in their second fight and perhaps due to the controversy surrounded the misscoring of the first this overly sensitized the judges to score in Barrera's favour. The second LL-Holyfield fight was scored wide to LL even though it was actually closer than their first.
Bradley is the one who signed the TR extension moron Arum wants Bradley to become the TR star as Pac is on his way out
It's not gonna be easy to KO Pacquiao since Bradley is not a big puncher, but his chin is not the same as it was so Bradley has a chance. BTW, Arum wants to make Pacquiao v.s. Bradley to be many versions like Pacquiao v.s. JMM.
I doubt it. The jmm fights are a lot more marketable cause Jmm is Mexican and they make for great evenly matched fights. Viewer satisfaction was not high for the first Bradley fight irrespective of the robbery
And if Pacquiao beats Bradley convincingly or knocks him out in the rematch then? The one who's on his way out is Bradley, isn't it? The outcome of the rematch is very significant for both fighters though.
Kind of agree Bradley has to win in a very impressive fashion due too the controversial outcome of the last fight, however, he only has to look impressive enough to create an impression that he won, even if Pacquiao gets the decision.
If the fight is close again, Pac will get the nod this time. In fact, I didn't really think that their last fight was a robbery. It was a close fight that could have gone either way. If I were the judge I would give Pac 115 - 113.
I'm not going to say Bradley has to stop Pacquiao, but he's got to win the rounds very convincingly. A gameplan like the JMM fight probably won't cut it with the backlash over the first fight's decision. Doubtful he can win convincingly enough in any case.
@Nopporn I agree, what I'm saying is Bradley just has to do well enough to create what could be considered another controversial decision, that may go in favor of Pacquiao. Sure you'll have people say Bradley actual deserved this victory, but Pacquiao, by virtue of what I and many others think was a bad decision, should have got the nod. This sets the stage for a possible 3rd matchup, if this hypothetical situation does play itself out. Of course a KO either way probably ends any possibility of a 3rd fight.

If Bradley trades with Pac he will get knocked out..................two of the judges from the first fight resigned after the fight.............
