    Read its title.

    BTT, Bradley is a decent choice.
    What are the odds as of now?

    You really dont believe all of this **** do you?

    Skinny knocked him out, Manny got like a 20 second count there in that fight :deal That **** was similar to Cottos knocking down Clottey with the jab

    Teddy Atlas picked Pacman.

    That makes Bradley the overwhelming favorite.

    What we have learned and alot of it we learned from marquez and morales that Manny simply doesnt fight well going back, Manny is not a patient fighter, he falls for every feint, Richardson showed Mosley how to turn Manny to avoid the in coming onslaught.

    But notice that when Marquez in the last fight is moving away from Mannys shots if he is turning to the left Manny almost falls forward as he is coming in with shots.

    I honestly think that its not just the timing of the fight, but that we have seen enough of Pacquiao to learn what will work and what will not. What does Bradley have that others dont?

    Okay well he has the height, and what I mean about that is unlike Mosley and Margarito and Clottey, Bradley is short, so when Bradley misses a shot he can draw that hand right back to the holster and roll out safely a taller fighter like Mosley or Margarito if they miss as they punch down they leave a huge gap for Manny to exploit with combination shots this is why he is so effective over taller fighters they have to find him and he dont have to work to find them.

    This is also why Marquez was able to have such success in all three fights, if he misses a shot he can roll out and be in a much safer position than the taller guys.

    Youth is also a factor, and lets not forget this is Bradleys first real payday, Hunger is a hidden factor but if I were Tim I wouldnt come in trying to prove that I am hungry, I would rather him prove to be patient and play off of Mannys Flaws.

    Body work will be the key early on, he has to find a way to slow down Pac, and I think this is where it can be dangerous, he must be prepared for the left uppercut or even that long left hook that Manny turned over on Hatton.

    Those two shots he must really be prepared for as those are the only two I see being a big problem. Keeping his head low is also key, and when he slides inside he needs to burry his forehead in the chest of Pacquiao, this is where buts and cuts can happen doesnt mean its a dirty tactic it just means he will be safer having his head burried into mannys shoulder on the inside this will limit the amount of uppercuts that he gets hit with.

    Walk Manny into shots, we know that if you hit Manny he wants to get you back right away, so when Tim makes contact, walk around the block and set up a trap.

    if done right Manny will be on his period in no time and visibly frustrated and thats when you just keep taking round after round. Dont go for the knock out and do not follow Manny.

    I just think that the last several years we have seen what Manny is good at and what he is not good at. and being that Bradley has a trainer who comes from a long line of boxing with in the Diaz family they studied him and it will show Saturday.

    I like Bradley wide clear UD
     
  9. Bazooka that is honestly how I see it. Pac has more dimensions and will toy with Tim, will be a fun fight for Pac.

    Well Bradley has impressed me in the build up and has obviously trained very hard. Pac looked a little soft and a touch sheepish / disinterested in the build up. An upset wouldn't shock me, especially given Pac's last two fights. However, I think Pac knows he has something to prove tonight, so I anticipate that he will win a hard fought decision.

    Finally, a decent response that actually taught me a little.

    That's a good write up and OPINION.

    We both could be very wrong, but its good to discuss.

    I just wish people could understand what an opinion is, hence why I (and I hope you) are not betting our houses on the result.

    This is how I feel about this one.

    Bradley has the footspeed to rush Manny and make him uncomfortable but I think Manny catches him with some good shots and if he can turn/spin Bradley consistently he will break him down and stop him.

    Anything less than looking absolutely spectacular will be a loss for Pac. He desperately needs a good showing. I don't think it'll happen though. It'll be either an ugly, controversial win, or an ugly loss.

    Could see Bradley getting a SD. People seem to forget Pacquiao is not the same Pacquiao that destroyed Oscar, Hatton, Cotto, Margarito. He's lacking that killer instinct and its going to show.

    I predict a close fight.
