    Question asked to Freddie Roach about a rematch w/ Bradley from espnchat today:

    Should Pacquiao be looking to avenge the terrible decision loss against Bradley before he is done with boxing?

    Freddie Roach (12:09 PM)

    I don't think we need to, because the whole world knows we won that fight, that's why we're not fighting him now. We don't even take it as a loss.

    So he can lose again after he loses to Marquez?

    I felt it was a close fight anyways. Even though most feel Pac beat him easily (?) he should avenge the loss on his record regardless.

    I agree with Freddie here, anyone that's not a complete idiot/Pac detractor knows who won, regardless of the bull**** decision. Besides that, who wants to see Bradley throwing ineffectual jabs and back-pedalling, plus Manny mostly missing like an idiot for 12 more rounds anyway?

    Nobody want to see PAC chase Tim the whole fight again.

    If he lost to him, then yeah.

    Beating JMM properly is more important than beating Bradley again.

    I agree. It'll be equally as horrible as the first.

    Yes he should. Manny lost a controversial decision. Regardless if people thought he won or not, he should correct that. Many greats have done it in the past.

    No simply because he's going to look like **** again and stock will even more further diminished. Manny's best option should be to collect as much money as he can because he's getting exposed pretty much every fight. His last true good outing in like his last 5 fights was against Margo but he was caught with over 260 power punches. Shane fight he looked liked **** as well as Bradley and JMM.

    some fights you should go back out there and try to prove something, but not in this case. it was a boring fight, no one thinks TB won, and no one cares about TB ( i like him, just sayn)
    avenging fights are nice for story book endings and fairy tails. thats about it

    I don't care. He's at the end of a long and winding road that leads to a bore. Anyway, he's beating the guy people actually think beat him as opposed to the guy almost nobody thinks beat him, despite the ironic official scores. I'm not hungry for either fight, but I think it speaks to something good to be fighting Marquez instead. That's the one that weighs on him that people don't like. Not Bradley. It doesn't matter much anyway, I don't think.

    If Bradley wins and looks good in his next one or two fights, they have an angle they can sell.
