    i've been saying it for a while and i'll say it again, how does anyone feasibly see timothy bradley beating pacman? in what fashion? outboxing him? that's rich. I don't see it. I also don't see bradley overpowering pacquiao, so how's it going to happen.

    If you look my comment above I said that the fight will be close on the cards not that Bradley will win the decision. Marquez was supposed to be send to hospital after the fight and instead he enhanced his reputation and legacy and position himself for other big money fights.

    Agreed. This fight is a mismatch. The only question is whether Pac has lost enough of a step for Bradley to be competitive. Something tells me it's not the case, and Pac will be looking to prove something. That adds up to a late stoppage victory for Manny, imo.

    You can not see him get on the inside tie Pac and outwork him? Maybe I'm wrong I have been before. But Tim defense is pretty good IMAO. I don't think that Pac is taking him seriously enough...

    his defense is pretty good but not excellent, like marquez's defense. Furthermore, how do you suppose he can get on the inside and outwork pacquiao, without taking serious damage on the way in, ala margarito and cotto(especially)?

    I see where you're coming from when you say that you think pac may be overlooking him slightly, but I think that comes from pac being involved in a variety of endeavours. To be honest I think pacquiao is taking him very seriously. he doesn't want another questionable outcome and bad performance, even though I think pacquiao's showing was due in full to marquez's effort.

    Pac is not stopping Bradly. Kid is build like a small tank. Bradley might pull off upset.

    What impressed me is how he shut offensively a very good fighter like Peterson. I think that his defense is underrated. Cotto is better on the inside now after Steward and especially Diaz, by the time he fought Pac he had zero defensive inside game IMAO. Margarito is the same he has offensive inside game zero defensive. Both him and Cotto don't know how to hold and tie an opponent. Pac hasn't fought such type of fighter and will be suprized by some of his borderline inside tactics. If Pac catches him while coming and beat the **** out of him I will give you and the others respect.

    I hate to break it to OP, but Bradley doesn't have any fans.

    For those who don't think it's possible for Pac to KO Bradley need to open their minds up a little more.. Bradley has been dropped against Holt and rocked a few times by others.. Pacquiao has been rocking/dropping opponents much bigger than Bradley..

    Bradley is also a come forward fighter which will be an advantage for Pacquiao, and I seriously doubt that Bradley has the power to make Pacquiao respect him.. I see Pacquiao slowly picking Bradley apart and then ultimately getting a late stoppage or tko..

    fair enough, I do think it's false to say cotto had zero defense and zero inside game before steward and diaz. he had both of those skills, just not as good as now. also, i'll give you the credit, even if bradley doesn't win, if he can neutralize pacquiao.
