People think Bradley has a chance based on their desperation for a good fight. It's kind of obvious that Pac will be too strong & too fast for Bradley. yes, he'll be on the juice, but then that's a given. Anyone know what the official odds are right now?
Clottey lost to Cotto who wasn't at his best. Cotto had a trainer in his corner who more of a strength and conditioning coach. Bradley is a much better boxer than Clottey and Cotto, in terms of boxing skills he is up there with JMM.
Bradley can take a punch and can box as well as anyone Pacquiao has ever faced. Bradley is also prime. It's not going to be like the Hatton fight or the Cotto fight or the Margarito or Clottey fight. It's going to be the most difficult fight for Pacquiao other than Marquez. People need to study tapes on Bradley. He has a highly technical style and has been beating fighters on pure skill and technique and ring IQ rather than athleticism. He also never gets tired, and he's harder to hit than Pac. Pac can win if he throws 1000 punches or more but at his age I don't think he can do that. I think he's going to lose because of leg cramps, stamina, and the fact that he can't fight going backwards while Bradley can.
bradley wins..... pac aint knocking him out.... if bradley got up from that shot by Holt, nothing pac will hit him with will bother him.... it will go 12 rounds......
If it goes 12 rounds..Bradley loses, period. Bradley needs to knock him out, but with those feather fists of his, that isnt happening. Pac knocking him out isn't out of the question...But the most likely scenario for me is that there will be a headbutt and the fight will be stop and will go to a TD..which means Pac will win. With 2 huge domes like that in the same ring, a headbutt injury is inevitable.
I don't see Manny destroying Bradley. This is going to be a tricky fight for him. Pacquiao hasn't knocked any body out for almost 3 years, he eeked out a decision most felt he lost against a 38 year old Marquez in his last fight and didn't look that good in doing so. He's complained of leg cramps in his last couple fights as well. Manny is not a prime fighter anymore, Bradley is, that evens this fight out quite a bit. It will likely be a closely contested fight and may be the best fight we've seen this year, and if I was a betting man I'd say nobody is getting knocked out here. Both men will engage which should make this a good action fight.
If Bradley doesn't get KOed, he will out point Manny. I'm dead serious. My only concern with Bradley is him coming in wild that could leave his chin exposed. If Bradley can't take the punch then the fight is over. I just think Bradley is more intelligent. I also think Bradley's inside game is going to play a major factor. He has the ability to get inside and eat that body up. I think Bradley wins by SD.
Bradley got dropped by Holt in the 1st and 12th round and won all the rounds in between. He caused campbell, alexander and witter to more or less quit fighting or just quit. Guy is elusive and breaks his opponents down, wouldn't surprise me if he did it to manny. I expect a manny decision which is controversial, again.
I've just never really seen Bradley destroy a southpaw in a way which would convince me he beats Pacquiao.
