Pacquiao-Bradley done for June 9 at the MGM Grand, LV

How about a breakdown on why you think Bradley would beat Pacman?

 

X's and O's will come, my man. All in good time. :good

 

Mosley Mayweather Judah style he said .A born inner city black American .He said even though Clottey was black he wasn't a slick American .Good vid this one of the slickest boxers ever:good

Nicolino Locche must have been gutted knowing that he could never be truly slick. :-(

 

You know Hopkins he'd never lose to a white boy

 

I'll literally eat my hat if Bradley wins this via anything other than a headbutt. I don't think Pacquiao has actually declined that much. Mosley was very negative, and for all the disappointment about Pac's performance, he still shutout a former ATG. And Marquez's style and phenomenal timing will always cause Pacquiao problems.

But Timmy? He's not in the elite class. The Peterson Khan thing didn't make me think anymore of Bradley, just less of Khan. And beating up an old (possibly stoned?!) Casamayor proved nothing. Devon Alexander quit despite having been coming back into the fight IMO when it was stopped. I just can't see the Pedigree in Bradleys record.

If he does pull it off, before I eat my hat, I will tip it to any of those backing Bradley though, you've obviously seen something I haven't and more power to you.

 

I've been watching Bradley recently and I was giving him a good chance, but I actually take that back. Watching the last 4 fights of his, I just don't see the exceptional part to his game. I am seriously impressed with his with vs. Lamont though. His performance in that was very good, but his performances with Alexander and Casamayor were sub-par.

Sorry, but Bradley is no Marquez. Not by any stretch. While people may get the vision that the fresher, faster and busier fighter may be able to emulate what Marquez did that night, it's just not the case. Marquez knows what he was up against. He's been in with him 2 times and knew him better than anyone else.

Pacquiao's straight left with land frequently from what I've noticed, and I'm not all that confident in Timmy's chin. He has a good one, but not a great one.

 

It's amazing how much Khan losing to Peterson has raised Bradley's profile.

He should be fighting Marquez again if he's not getting in with Mayweather.

 

Why not? :huh

 

I've seen him stunned a fair few times in the fights I saw.

In the Holt one, being heavily dropped and I think it was the Lamont and Alexander fights where he got stung. Also, when he went a little wild with Abregu and started trading, he backed off momentarily. I just get the picture that he feels it a bit.

Don't know much about the previous fights before the Cherry fight.

Not much substance behind it really, just a bit of a suspicion I've carried for a while.

Edit: Just thinking back, it was the Garcia-Holt fight that made me think this more than anything. When I saw Holt land the same combination on Garcia and him not even flinching just made me go.. -__________-

 

I view the Holt knockdown as a positive when analysing his chin. It was a huge shot from a massive puncher and he shown unreal powers of recovery to come back. I can't recall him being particularly stunned in the Peterson or Alexander fights, especially the Alexander fight.

 

The first Holt KD was him in transition, he was hit by a world class puncher in transition with chin in air didn't see it coming hits canvas heavily yet gets up and proceeds to pick his opponent apart. The last round KD was also him being reckless and being clipped with a punch which sent him down through momentum and timing. Again i think most would of went down but most would of been all over ring. Timmy's recovery is at a incredible rate.

If anything it showed how good he is, i think anyone would of been floored by that first KD.

Yeah, I agree with you guys. It was stunning how he just got back up, but just to catch on, I think I caught onto this belief from the Garcia-Holt fight.

When I saw that Garcia didn't even flinch from the same combination, it was a pretty damn big surprise. I was picking Holt to absolutely knock him out.

So yeah, I think it was this that kind of gave me that impression.

Wallet, it was only momentarily in the Lamont and Alexander fights. He recovered instantly. It was a right hand from them both. His conditioning is clearly excellent, from we can see. (no harami)

 

For the first time ever, I'm rooting for Pacquaio.:shock:

 

if bradley can close the distance and make it very ugly which he is good at it could be close, he will need to make it very ugly kind of like agapito sanchez
