    Bradley's power of lack of it is irrelevant. Bradley has more of an ability to intelligently box against JMM than Pacquiao does, I believe. He's also shown a tremendous chin throughout his career. I'd expect this fight to go the whole way.

    You miss the point completely - I couldn't care less what you'd rather see, it's not what I was asking. If you got nothing of use to say, don't say anything :roll:

    More like the discussion I'm looking for...good to see not everyone has one agenda only...

    If he's that financially set then fair enough. I'd be curious to know what the financial differences are - then again could all still be a bluff

    I think Bradley has a better chance of beating JMM than Pacquiao at this point, and especially after that KO.

    It's not about intelligence, it's about styles. Marquez is an expert defensive counterpuncher, Pacquiao is a brilliant offensive fighter. Every single one of Marquez's best boxing weapons get to be used fully against Pacquiao because of Pacquiao's style, it brinsg out the best of what Marquez offers.

    Bradley is not as offensive - if he tries to be MArquez KOs him. If Bradley fights the way he did against Pacquiao - ultra defensive, use his jab, back off and counter himself, he limits the best of what Juan Manuel Marquez does as a fighter...he forces Marquez to throw first and Marquez does not do that as well because he lacks the natural exposiveness and speed to get through, especially against a naturally bigger guy like Bradley...

    Pacquiao is the more dangerous fighter for sure in terms of KO potential and how tough the fight would be but Bradley is potentially a bad style match for Juan

    come on juam will make more the a mill for fighting timmy. and JMM dont wanna get punked out on the split of the money with pacman. juan just wants a 50-50 split . instead pac wants to hog the money in all the fights . n jmm is the only one who wins clear cut.

    fight timmy . the fans want a new battle . we no juan is better more skillled the manny . money isnt n issue . its not important at this point his financially set . hes prolly sick of fightin pac

    Not being a douche but I hate comments like this as they are based on nothing...Bradley got knocked from pillar to post by Provodnikov - it's possible he took a lot more punishment than Pacquiao did despite the KO - in fact some on here think he's still slurring.

    The psyhcological aspect for Pacquiao is the issue. If he can get over that and dedicate himself to a solid focused training camp then who knows?

    But opinions are based on stuff we've seen and as no one has any idea how much punishment has affected Bradley or Pacquiao until they're in the ring again then it's like saying "I think the lottery numbers will be 5,34,23,11,12 and 45"

    If both Pac and JMM keep winning then a 5th fight would make sense sometime in the future. But for now you have to admit it's good that they aren't immediately fighting again. Pac needs a bit of a soft touch after getting KTFO. JMM needs a different name on his resume to expand his legacy. And fans need something fresh.

    This is somewhat OT, but I bet if Marquez had only gone down once in his first fight with Pacquiao, he'd have won by decision.
