I'll be rooting for Timmy but i dont think he's on that floyd-pac level and unfortunately i dont think he'll ever be.
As far as I can tell, Taz (someone on Khan's team) simply retweeted something from a person who I don't believe really knows one way or the other: http://twitter.com/#!/Taz786khan/status/67568516202627072 Looks more like an assertion than any actual confirmation to me, but I guess we'll find out.
Ideally I'd like to see Bradley fight Amir in the summer first and if he successfully unifies 140 to then fight Pac at 47. Though I'd rather see Pac-Bradley more than Pac-JMM so if bypassing Khan is what it takes to trump JMM than I'm all for Tim making this move.
Well if it's at 140 this is a pretty good fight to be made accomplishment-wise(undefeated fighter, 2nd best at 140) but it should be one-sided in Pac's favor. Technically Pacquiao is the man of not only 147 but 140 as well as he beat former JWW kind Hatton for supremacy of the division. Pacquiao would ruin Bradley but I applaud Bradley IF this is true but I know it is true that he wants Pacquiao. Pacquiao needs to retire though if this is the best his team can do, like I said in another thread he has no challenges anymore. Pacquiao/Mayweather ain't happening so his best bet is to call it a career. I do think Bradley's decent defense can cause Pacquiao some frustrations especially if Shane's could and Shane is not known for having a good defense. Bradley is prime and young but Pacquiao would stop the highly active Bradley.
It would be nice if it´s Bradley. It won´t make as much PPV buys as Pac-Marquez, but my guess is that it would be a bit more competitive. Also, I expect Bradley to thrash talk all his way to the promotion, and that´s a good for a change in Pacquao fights. I would like to see Pac verbally abused in press conferences, just to see how he would react.
I think this is the best fight Pac could take right now besides Mayweater... I know Bradley is coming to win.. He is one of those guys whos not great at anything in particular but good at everything.. I think he could be competetive early and will probably try to smother pac inside.. He is physically strong so he could do well there, hed flurry and suprise some by landing on Pac clean.. My guess is that Bradleytakes a couple of the early rounds with a busier inside attack..After that i thnk Pac would eventually get flowing from the outside and begin to take over.. Bradley would show heart and be game scoring with shots of his own.. But he dont have enough Firepower to bother manny.. If anything the clean ones he does land just **** Manny off more.. Doesnt take Manny long to land a some brutal shots that drop and hurt Bradley. Bradley picks himself up and hangs tough to make it thru the round.. But he never recovers Manhy pounces on him and finishes him off in the next round Pacquiao Ko 6 in a somewhat shot but entertaining fight... Bradley will be given props by boxing fans and the media for showing more than pacs previous bigger opponents.
Really? I thought the opposite. JMM is old and another excuse for the ***** to say he fights old people. Bradley is young and in prime and has a big o head like pacs. I hope its bradley even if pac will kill him, just so the ***** wont say jmm was old.
Love Bradley, But he has zero chance against Pacquiao. Timmy don't have the style/Chin or power to pull it off, IMO. (Would be great tho as a fan) For the record I'd favor JMM over Bradley aswell.
This fight is bull****!!!! TB?! seriously? i swear during the fight Arum had mentioned a rematch with Marquez finally... thats what i would prefer, cuz he's not gunshy n will take the risk of throwing counters.. Bradley is gonna get hit like mosley n either fall asleep, or run
