the only question is can pac fight for a full three minutes. last time he thought he could get by on stealing rounds. i have my doubts that he can still fight for a full round.
i thought pac won the first fight clearly but it was evident that as the fight went on timmy was figuring out how to box him and did it with 2 bad ankles, he'd pick up where he left off in a rematch and he'd have healthy ankles so I would give him a very good chance of winning legitimately this time and wouldn't be surprised if he did and got robbed this time hahaha
Bradley has a point. It sounds like he wants a lot of money but Pac would be giving a lot of money to Marquez as well if they have a 4th fight. Marquez has already had 3 opportunities. Cotto isn't going to fight below 154. Who else is there? I suppose there is no rush to make a decision. Pac should throw us a wild card. Fight the winner of Rios-Alvarado in December.
This. I had Bradley winning several rounds just due to being a little more active consistently through the round. Pac's flurries often seemed like too little, too late. A lot of fighters would have beaten him that night.
I don't think Manny wants to fight him either. Because if it was such a robbery he'd be running up to get that immediate rematch.
Lol Pac toyed with his ass, schooled and outclassed him. It's just too bad he didnt knock him out. He better prays that Pac doesn't take the rematch or hes getting his ass knocked out this time around. Good luck to Bradley though.
His feet werent even injured. His ankle rolled but he caught his balance. Pointless fight. Anybody not blind knows manny won
Bradley definatley has a chance of beating Pacquiao and it would be bad for business from Pacquiaos position if he lost again. However if pacman feels he won the first fight and felt he got a bad decision, he should fight him again to leave no doubt. Bradley is a good fighter and probably would put in a beter performance as he will now know what to expect from pacman after going 12 rounds with him.
This is how I see it. Bradley lost first fight on my cards, but he wasn't 100% and made it close. Top Rank doesn't want to risk that fight again, you can clearly tell Arum is against it happening.
Like everyone else, I know Pacquiao won that fight. However, Bradley did well for himself in the fight, especially down the stretch. If Pacquiao doesn't fight Bradley again at some point before he retires then he's either ducking him or Arum is protecting/building his new investment. ATG fighters shouldn't retire without redeeming any L's.
The only toying I saw in the fight was when Bradley toyed with Manny in the 12th. Anyone who thinks this fight wasn't close is an idiot.
