    I want an honest, no trolling, no BS response especially from Pac critics and fans alike.
    No *****ism nor *******ism please.

    There's a rumor going around that this can be made as Pac's 2nd fight of the year.

    Bradley may not be as slick as Mayweather, but he fits the bill quite nicely:
    - undefeated (no more "coming off a loss" complaint)
    - "young and hungry" champion (holds both WBO and WBC belts at light welter, no more "only fights fading or past their prime legends" complaint)
    - racism aside, he's black. American black (no more "scared of blacks" complaint)
    - nobody's getting drained nor ballooned up (no more "always fighting drained fighters" complaint)
    - ranked #7 or #9 P4P (CMIIW)
    - Sasakul is more slick than him, but he does move his head and knows how to evade punches (no more "doesn't fight fighters who move" complaint)

    Is this a fight that would finally appease the Pac critics?
    Is this a fight that Pac fans would be excited about?
    What say you ESB?

    I honestly believe Bradley will go out in Hatton fashion.
    Really no other fights left for Pac out there (not unless you think it's OK to scarifice Pac's health and let him go for a 9th world title vs Sergio).

    Bradley? I can dig it. Bradley would get brutalized, and stopped by the 9th round.

    I'm all for it. He wouldn't have a chance, but it might be more competitive then a Marquez rematch. Plus Pac will actually get some credit for beating a young undefeated fighter.

    I'd rather see Marquez III. Bradley needs to fight Khan. If it happens should be seen as a good fight, hard to criticise, Bradley is rated #1 at JWW and a top 10 P4P fighter. Bradley has also fought at WW, so it won't be a question of him being smaller.

    he fits the bill for Pachaters. I can imagine Hussleman now posting something like this: "When was the last time Pac fought a dangerous opponent? he's been busy fighting cherry picked easy money fights like Cotto, Clottey, Margo, Mosley, Bradley. The cheating ******* ducked Floyd"

    bradley fits in there so well

    This would be a pretty good fight. Unfortunately, Bradley says the rumors about this fight happening are false. Hopefully it does come together though.

    Would be an entertaining fight. Bradley would likely get stopped in this one; he doesn't have much defense. He is smaller than Manny... should be a catchweight fight.

    I think Bradley has some characteristics which cannot be criticized by those who criticize Pacquiao - young, undefeated, coming off maybe his best win (albeit in ugly fashion). Unfortunately for those critics, Bradley is an easy fight for Pacquiao. He has literally no chance at all.

    There's nobody left who can give Pac a reasonable challenge at 140-147 imo. Except that one guy...

    I'd love to see Pac vs Bradley. Bradley is an excellent young fighter, with the emphasis on 'fighter'. He wouldn't run like a ***** a la Mosley. That'd be Pac's next fight if it were up to me. :good

    Bradley is not smaller than Pacquiao.

    he definitely isnt bigger then manny either, one thing I think is strange is that most people like this fight yet nobody gives bradley a chance.

    hmm says . . .

    before I wanted to see, but after TB's last performance I don't really care for this match up much . . . given the lack of high caliber opponnets for Pac, I guess he is viable along with JMM and Zab . . . Throw in Ortiz and Khan for shiets . . . I think Pac wipes the floor with all these cats . . .
