    So knowing that, will he still try to box?


    The latest OTR episode had him saying he'll throw over 1k punches

    You have some people that would really like to see Manny Pacquaio versus someone who's "slick" and I think when that comes to mind most people automatically assume the opponent would be Black.

    Timothy Bradley is very Mexican, stylistically, rather fans actually notice instead of just assuming since he's black he's "slick". Look at Bradley's style, pressure fighting, body punching, head movement, the whole Marvin Hagler workman like approach.

    I can't do anything, but applaud Manny because the guy has spent the last few fights beating a lot of undesirables and getting more than enough credit for it.

    Bradley's tough, he's proven, young, versatile, and I think Manny is turning the corner a little bit. He had trouble getting to Mosley, Marquez arguably beat him, and Bradley is a young lion with nothing to lose. I wouldn't be surprised if this was an upset in the making, lord knows this is a tougher fight than that other guy who fights on May 5th is taking.

    This. I think Bradley has a shot of winning this if he boxes smart.

    Yet if he loses while trying to outbox Pac, he might get the Clottey/Mosley syndrome of fans never wanting to see him on TV again. Bradley's still very too young to have that happen to him

    All bradley needs to do is win clearly by boxing smart. Brawling with pacquiao means less chances of winning.

    He won't win. He won't brawl. He won't box. He'll turtle like Clottey/Mosley and Pac will be fine for settling for another boring UD. This fight is bunk.

    Normen Bates, how the hell can you make the little sly remark about Mayweather. Come on dude, mayweather is fighting Cotto at 154 his weight not some pacman's "let me drain the **** out of you weight" I do think this fight is a bit late but regardless it should make for a great fight. Cotto was never faster or quicker than Floyd, not back then and not now. so all the talk about this being a mismatch is nothing moremthan bull****. We all wanted to see that fight back then which would have been great, but now it's supposed to be garbage, I don't think so.
