Michael Koncz "Media and fans under estimate Timothy Bradley"

Can't be arsed watching the video. But Bradley has been underrated. Still think Pacquiao will win impressively though.

 

If Tim can counter-punch effectively early and make it a gritty, grimey fight late he will have great success, we know Bradley will be in tremendous condition, but he has to rely on his intelligence to trump the advantages Manny has in speed, combinations and power...its a tall task but I feel Tim has the tools to get the job done...

 

Bradley hasn't been under rated, then again no one I know who don't know what they are on about care about this fight, so the only opinion I have is one friend and everyone here, haven't noticed anyone say he don't stand a chance.

 

He has been underrated since the Khan bout not coming off, on this forum.

 

hes a good fighter who can box and brawl. i expect timmy to box him, which will give pac more problems. if he brawls pac, its ova for timmy

 

Bradley has absolutely nothing to trouble pacquiao. He isnt faster, or better in any category except maybe strength ; and no he isnt smarter either. Pacquiao can and will outbox him. He also makes some fundamental mistakes that Pacquiao / Freddy Roach are going to exploit. Bradley at best might make the fight look a little awkward , but he has next to no shot of winning , unless Pacquiao becomes shot overnight. He's not on this level.

 

so basically you're making a bold prediction but if you're wrong like a lot of the time you will say that manny is shot?

 

Bold?? Bradley will probably be a like a 6-1 underdog or something.

If Manny actually loses , it depends how he loses but the only way I see him losing to Bradley is if he's shot. There is no reason he should lose to a b-level fighter like Bradley.

 

i favour manny, slightly though i think it will be competitive.

so if bradley uses a lot of movement goes to the body a lot frustrates pacman and beats him by decision will you say manny was shot?

 

Its gonna be a better fight than Pac fans and casual fans expect...Bradley is in his prime undefeated....and dude is determined reminds me of a little Hagler...good skills not great at one thing but the desire and heart of a lion...an upset is not out of question.....Bradley also fights a but dirty and Pac Man never liked being roughed up or fighting backwards or counterpunched, which bradlley can do

 

so he isnt shot then right...bradley is B level

 

It depends how he looks / how he loses. I can't predict that.

What do you see in Bradley that could possibly make this a close fight? He's not elite in any category. Did you see his last fight with Casamayor?


Here's a question if Manny blows him out are you going to give him credit?

 

Bradley is a good fighter, and this is a good fight. That being said, I don't see Pacquiao losing this fight. Bradley has some good defensive skills, but he squares himself up a lot and comes in wide with his punches. He doesn't have much power and is not as fast as Manny. The speed difference and lack of power might even be more dramatic considering the fight is at 147 lbs. I like Manny in this bout. However, it could turn out to be yet another less than thrilling fight for Pacquiao. He has no KO's and only 1 KD since the Cotto fight back in November of 2009.
