I'm 100% for it as a Bradley fan, But if Timmy last 5 rds I would be amazed. Bradley simply don't have enough power or size to make Pac respect him @ 147lbs. (Manny would walk right through Tim) Interesting, But not PPV material.
Because they're more interested in his record than the actual fighter. The same people who called Pac-Margarito a cherry pick would praise Pac-Bradley, even though Tony would mop the ****ing floor with Timothy. And that's coming from a huge Bradley fan.
errr.... cuz history says he dont have that chance. Plenty guys a weight class above him has gotten whooped up who are at his level, if not slightly higher, thru experience. I think Marquez 3 was posted originally in october in BoxRec, but now its gone. Thats a fight i wanna see - there's some unfinished business there for Pacquiao and fight fans. Bradley may be the best legitimate option for matching up against a younger generation fighter. The bad thing is he's down a weight class, which translates to Pacquiao's power & physicalness being more apparent. Doesnt he push around A-class Welterweights/pseudo Lt. Mids around already? The proposition of Manny going down to his natural weightclass is rather scary....
yeah, despite what others may say, i wouldnt call a Bradley fight a cherrypick. In fact, he's prob the next-best competition Pacquiao can get Welter/lt welterweight. His best competition (besides PBF) would be Marquez at Lightweight for a catchweight fight. Bradley is a solid fighter who doesnt have any apparent weakness. Unfortunately, he doesnt have any apparent strengths either. Pacquiao will prove to be significantly stronger, faster, and will easily outwork Bradley unfortunately. I'd like to think Bradley would hang in there but im not really sure if he'd make even the late rounds....
