    im not a ******* or a *****. i respect both guys and would like to see em fight each other.

    I imagine bradley to give manny a challenge for as long as the fight lasts.
    bradley is a very good defensively, and puts educated pressure on.
    i predicted timothy bradley to dominate 140 when he beat witter as he looked so complete as a fighter, much like andre ward who can fight going forward and backwards.

    pacman is really good, however he looked good against the big guys in ODLH, hatton, cotto and margarito because these guys fight in straight lines.
    when he fought marquez the 3rd time, i knew he would be challenged as JMM has lateral movement and can match him for skill and smarts.

    All im saying is that dont expect a blowout in favour of manny pacq as he's fighting a really good fighter who can fight various ways unlike his most recent foes who were made to order.

    beginning stage of the fight i think pac is going to win. and bradley mite get knocked out early if his chin doesnt hold up, with bradley carrying more weight his chin mite improve. because manny hits harder the kendall holt . if timmys chin is legit i think he can have time to figure manny out and then its a real toss up , im still pickin manny by knockout or ud

    I think Bradley is gonna shock a lot of ppl

    now he isnt gonna win i think but...

    he will be a very dangerous threat

    these 147 guys were too slow and too predictable

    Bradley like Marquez is quick and has great foot work

    Bradley can handle speed...he handled the speed of Alexander who may even be faster than Pac

    handled a natural raw puncher like Holt

    he has fought tricky awkward guys before and several south paws

    i think he can fight outside or inside and his tough tactics and use of the head will be interesting

    remember the last time Manny got cut from a butt vs a rough and tough guy, he drew Sanchez and hardly looked great doing it

    i picture a close fight til Mannys difference of class appears and he comes on late

    but who knows maybe it turns into a Khan Petersen scenario when the out gunned underdog just keeps coming and wins on heart alone

    so you think feinting and Baiting will work for Bradley in beating Pac? all you have done is given Bradley the blue print JMM used a few months ago!!! I doubt Pac is going to fall for it again, Bradley cannot counter 10% as well as JMM does, JMM had amazing success against Pac through the intelligence he used setting traps for Pac that worked pretty much every time.

    Pac is going to smash Bradley i will take any avatar bets saying otherwise. Too fast, too strong and too powerful. Pac is nothing like Bradley has ever faced before, you think because he beat old ass Witter and Cassamayor then had a snooze fest against Alexander he is going to beat Pacman?!!! Not a chance in hell, Pac will really hurt Bradley he needs to stay at 140.

    Call me crazy, but:

    Pacquiao is coming to the end of his career; he is talking about politics, retirement etc. Arum is only going to get another couple of years out of Pacquiao, max.

    Bradley is coming into his prime; he is American, undefeated, a family man, is media friendly, has a sharp smile.... He is also bloody good.

    Is Papa Bob grooming Bradley to be the next face of boxing, his next cash cow?

    What better way to catapult Bradley into intergalactic super-stardom than a 'W' over Pacquiao? How big would a victory over Pacquiao be? How many years can Arum milk his new cash cow for? How big would a Bradley -Pacquiao rematch be? Could Arum then cash out on Pacquiao by feeding him to Mayweather? With Mayweather being is 35 years old and onloy having a year - one or two more fights - left in him, if Bradley was to beat Pacquiao, then post-Mayweather, he would - without doubt - be the biggest name in the sport.

    Papa Bob is a calculating man; he would not have brought in a rising star like Bradley without having a plan for him and the plan can not have been to have Pacquiao ruin him.

    Get your hard earned on Bradley while you still can get odds like 6/1 :deal :deal :deal

    Good, reasoned post, couldn't have made those points better myself.

    Those political and philosophical points aside however, I truly believe that Bradley on his own boxing merit will not only give Pac a run for his money, he'll hand Pacman a defeat on technical grounds.

    No he isn't. Bradley does not have the charismatic style needed to be the "face of boxing". Bob knows this.

    I don't think anyone would be suprised if Pac struggles with Bradley. I mean its soo clear now what you have to do to negate his offense. And its so obvious that bradley has the skills to do it. Weather thats enough to get a descision is another question.

    I wouldn't be surprised. Bradley is a fit vegan. Vegans don't **** around.
