    bradly is the best fighter at 140 and i think 2nd or 3rd best at ww. the only thing saving pacman is the punching power. if brad can take it when he has to then you will see pacman lose to only get his hands raised at the end of the fight.
    watch and see.

    Bradley would get destroyed by any version of Kosta Tszyu. He is better than the verison that fought Manny, but prime for prime no way.

    I think it's head games by Roach...Tim is definitley a better school fighter but just because Tim is better schooled, doesn't mean he'll reach the success Ricky did at Jr WW with pure guts, determination and heart. Those elements are sometimes under appreciated in boxing but in some cases make good fighters into GREAT ones.

    Lets go back two fights then. Pacquiao looked bad against Marquez and he also looked bad against Mosley.

    Mosley is and was shot to ****. shot shot shot.

    Pacquiao is now a year older, has undergone a religious conversion, and seems disengaged.

    Bradley on the other hand has some attributes that make him dangerous. For one he's hard to hit! He doesn't stand there right in front of you. Second, he can fight inside: he's physical and can maul and brawl and can fight dirty.

    And, my God, you know what else? He moves his head! Unlike stick upright shot Oscar, face first Hatton, stick upright face first Margarito, turtle shell Clottey, porous guard Cotto, and shot to **** Mosley -- he's elusive.

    That means Pacquiao is going to have to open up. He's gonna have to make his mad charges, those fencing dashes, to close the distance. And when he does, Timbo is going to -- you're not going to believe this -- Timbo is going to move his feet! Timbo will actually move his feet and make it hard for Pacquiao to land cleanly when he charges in.

    "Isolate him with your feet" said Timbo to some interviewer once. Take note.

    He's right. Hatton isn't fit to suck Bradley's left **** nevermind be compared to him. Hatton was a media hyped joke pub fighter.

    Bradley is better. Not in every aspect, but most aspects. He's simply more well-rounded, and much better defensively. The latter can be pretty important for your career.

    style wise timmy is nothing like hatton other than being aggressive with a questionable chin.

    prime hatton was actually far better than bradley at most things and will no doubt go down history as higher ranked fighter with a better career imo

    I personally don't care where this comes from, I believe in this quotes from Bradley and Roach. Freddie may be overconfident and that's his way cause he definitely believes more than ever in his best fighter and having that disease has nothing to do with his process of logic thinking.

    Then I don't want to play the villain here or the bad guy cause peace of mind and friendship towards anyone is my middle name, my label, but I have to say this: Bradley is surely as well conditioned as Hatton was in that night... Bradley doesn't have much of a defense but he comes onto his oppennent, that's what! JMM's sucess against Manny specially in the rematch and the third fight is or was the fact that he is not a common Mexican fighter, war and balls to the wall, Marquez is slick sneaky right hand couter puncher who has the footwork to match Manny's - step a lil bit back and set up a right hand after Manny has got there first with a str8 left cause Manny is still very loose even at a welterweight, heavier weight. That's why the Canadian judge Guy Jutras had it 115-110 for JMM in the first fight and Nevada's Jerry Roth had it 115-113 ( or 115-112 don't recall well) for JMM in the rematch. JMM fought more aggressive this time around and specially in wild and courageous exchanges from round 8 on but the best he got was a 114-114 from one judge, the other two judges had it 8 round to 4 and 7 rounds to 5 in a fight where there were no knockdowns. I am sure Manny /Roach/Arum chose wrong in picking JMM's at 38 years old cause that was one of the last spells of a slickster who has made a name for himself after MAB and Morales. I also think like Lampley and Steward that Floyd could counter punch Manny to death or not if Manny adjusts better to thisa taller opponent Floyd than he did against JMM. No robbery like JMM and Nacho claimed and all respect to them and to mexican and JMM's fans cause he was just tryin to make it even against Manny, he was not first like a counter puncher performs and the numbers don't say that he did skip those first leads from Manny, he just punched back effectively and performed better than expected.

    Tim is no JMM even though he is much younger but b'cause he is young and the fights against Witter in the UK and for the WBC belt, Kendall Holt for the WBC and WBO belts, Nate Campbell that ultimately proved that Tim can't avoid getting his head out of the way, he was having the upper hand but his brawling style made it a no-contest against another veteran, "The Galaxy Warrior" who is a good fighter under John David Jackson and the way they beat prev undefeated Juan Diaz in Mexico and in the undercard of HWT WBC fight Maskaev/Peter. Even his wins against Peterson which was clear and proved his willpower and strength to fight, throw punches under pressure and specially againt Alexander when he did admit that he had to KEEP ALEXANDER FROM BOXING b'cause otherwise he would box you to death and Alexander's amateur record tells exactly that... Bradley used his head again or it was a function of the two fighters with Alexander giving up near the end when he was behind on the scorecards like the stepping on Manny's foot was also maybe not premiditated but a function of the two fighters Marquez and Pacquaio...

    Bottom line, if Bradley can't step back a little and counter punch him clean and effective but only punch forward his way in while Manny on light feet steps aside and keeps on scoring, if Tim comes low and head first and what a big head it is ( just joking, don't take it bad Bradley fans) why is he affected by what Roach has said?

    Proof that you have not got a clue what you are on about. Hatton was far more dominant than Bradley was or will evr be. He emptied 140, made in America. In fact are you telling me the likes of Malignaggi, Castillo and Urnago were bums? Bradley ducked Khan you fool. And for the record he headbutts his way to victory and is will be getting served up by Pac; just like Hatton.

    Oh, and Bradley's easily the better fighter, in my opinion. More of a complete package.

    This. If Hatton had more on the defensive side, I doubt he wouldve got embarrassingly KO'd by Pac as he did.
