Pacquiao looks normal

    STYLES MAKE FIGHTS.

    Faded B-level Katsidis and Juan Diaz had Marquez digging deep to pull out the victory. I have no doubt in my mind that Pacquiao would blitz either guy in under 6. I'd pick Rios and Maidana to beat Marquez, but Pac would cut through them like a samurai sword through silk.

    Just because people had Manny losing a fight (God forbid a fighter loses) doesn't mean he was "exposed." Judah is not really the type of fighter someone at Floyd's level would be expected to struggle with, but he did, because of styles. Lesser fighters have avoided being dropped by Judah. Floyd looked very limited against Oscar and was getting cornered easily. He won, he's a great fighter, but don't act like Manny or any fighter for that matter finding a stylistic foil is something unique to them.

    If u cant see that a fighter like Bradley will give the technically flawed, off balance and at times wreckless Pacquiao problems then you dont know **** about boxing.

    Sorry... :hi:

    I guarentee Pacquiao will struggle and look ordinary vs Bradley compared to his destruction of Hatton and DLH. And i fully expect to hear outcries of cramped legs, declining, over the hill, not focused on boxing, and underestimated Bradley excuses to be in full affect come after the fight.

    :hi:No need to apologize kid. You telling me that I don't know **** about this sport holds no weight. I'm more than capable of speaking on a high level about the sweet science. I know there's a possibility that TIM could present problems for Pac... I just know that the chances are slim..... TIM has a good a shot at upsetting Pac that miguel has against Floyd. It is what it is.

    To point out that Pac is has flaws makes you "captain ****ing obvious".:rofl all fighters have Flaws... Pac is off balance at times but he's more effective than off balance. There were a lot of fighters before Tim who were suppose to beat Pac or cause him all sorts of problems only to be victimized by Pac in a one sided affair....there was JMM, EM, MAB, DLH, Cotto, Hatton...ect....ect and the list goes on.

    And what say you if Pac utterly dominates TIM.... Will we be hearing how Tim was over hyped....not big enough....cherry picked or paid off? Or will there be some credit for Manny? I know what 99% of the Floyd groupies will do should this happen.... But I like to give the benefit of the doubt.

    Ive given Pac props for stepping up vs Bradley just like i did when he fought Marquez. But it wasnt their first choice. The so called peoples champ couldnt even get in the ring with Cotto at 150...some p4p champ he is. I think Pac is a great fighter. But not for beating dudes like Clottey, Cheato and a dead DLH. Bradley is a real opponent for once. Cant wait to hear the excuses come June 10th. Nobody will believe he has a chance vs Mayweather then. Theres still a few believers out there but after this the Pacquiao hype is finished. Just take the 40 mil Pac and go away unless you wanna look like **** n get beat up some more vs other top opponents like Bradley

    If Bradley humbles Pacquiao than it'll be a testament to how good he is. Unless Pacquiao completely falls apart to some nobodies, he hasn't really lost a step. If you watch the other Marquez fights, Marquez employed very similar strategies each time. I don't think Bradley has the skill to do it so I expect Pacquiao to win.

    The people's champ has climbed into the ring countless times against seemingly bigger and technically better opposition for years. Cotto didn't even fight Marg at 154 yet it was a title fight and other great fighters have had catch weight fights long before Pac was even a thought.

    Pac is a proven great and embodies what people think of when the think of a P4P champion. Consistency, longevity and domination across multiple weight classes.

    I'm looking forward to this fight...not because I think its going to be fight of the year or anything, but because I'm intrigued to see what excuses will be made afterwards should Pac completely dominate?

    Especially from you who seems to be willing to bet your life savings on the upset happening... Have you thought about making a little paper on your prediction? I mean.....you "know" Pac is going to lose right? I'm willing to wager $1500 on Pac winning this fight in clear fashion against you're prediction that TIM pulls out the upset.... Ill even be willing to pay if the outcome is close and contraversial if you're down.

    I've done bets on esb before with other members...all we have to do is set up a paypal account where we can hold the money until after the fight. I would have lost $2500 on the Pac vs JMM fight if another esb member took me up on my bet that Pac would KO JMM.... You could be possibly be $1500 richer by June 10 if you want to put your money on Tim. PM me if your interested and I will get you my email to coordinate the particulars.

    I never predicted a Bradley to win you pinche puto lol. Pac will win a close decision. He will not dominate. If he does ill give Manny mad props. But its not gonna happen. Only excuses will be coming from pacs team and dick riders like yourself. See you June 10th after the world writes Pac off lol. Like they did after Marquez :deal

    Oh...:lol: I'm still willing to put up that money that we see Pac dominate TIM. And I didn't mention you being the president of Floyd's official salad tossing fan club, did I? :lol: we will see about which end the excuses will be coming from after June 9. Should be interesting.

    And again, decent ESB posters are responding to a troll account, or God forbid, another nuthugger in the making.

    If Pac has gone down hill so much then Void would finally fight him, but he will not..............Void is extremely afraid and supports my prediction years ago.............Void will never fight Pac unless Pac gets into a care accident and is confined to a wheel chair.................or perhaps he could dress up like a woman, they Void would think about it for a change...........

    Nothing wrong with Pac at all put him in tehre with boxers who dont just come forward or stand there he looks like something is wrong....put him in tere with guys who just come forward and no movement or defense and all of a sudden he looks unbeatable.

    Pac is a fighter in his 30's now, whose major assets are based on his physical capabilities. These fade as you get older. Sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. He's still very good, but won't be as good as he was at 29 or 30. That's a basic fact.

    A fighter like Floyd won't be either, and he's older (but has had a few breaks). But a guy that has such good technical ability will always "age" better. They have more to fall back on.

    I'm not making excuses for Pac if he loses, because I don't really care one way or the other. But anyone expecting a guy of pac's age and style, in their 30s and above their weight to fight like they did at their peak has rocks in their head.
