    I think Bradley's confidence is going to quickly dissolve when he gets a taste of Manny's speed and power. He better study Marquez's fight with Pacquiao well because the only chance he has is to outbox Pacquiao. If he tries to go toe to toe he's gonna end up on the canvas. I almost hope Pacquiao gets cut in this fight because it might **** him off and get him to fight aggressively like he did earlier in his career.

    He's not expected to win so surely he wants all the credit he obviously deserves if he pulls this off.

    I agree that bradley will be beaten by pacquiao, but I dont think his confidence will "quickly dissolve" after experiencing pacquiao's raw ability. bradley will keep fighting. he doesn't know how to lose, this really is the fight of his life and he's also a tremendously determined guy, so I see him giving his all. I think pacquiao emerges a clear winner, but I also see fireworks for however long it lasts.

    It's not up for debate. He's definitely lost a step but he's still a top p4p figher in the world and nobody has done anything but get brutalized and/or embarrassed against him in years except one other top p4p figher in Marquez. If Bradley beats him, it doesn't matter that he's lost a step-which we all know he has-it will still be a huge accomplishment. He does NOT need the credit patrol on this case.

    Being a difficult opponent to fight is not being underrated. His speed is not underrated cause he can only throw series of one-twos ( finishing with an awkward overhand right). His power is not underrated cause his opponents have felt his punches and we all give credit to them so if they felt, he must have it. His boxing skills including footwork and boxing IQ are not underrated cause he is obedient to Joel and he trains hard to make others feel uncomfortable. In my opinion, he's not underrated, his awkward style, one of the most awkward styles I have ever seen is clearly overrated.

    Bradleys gonna be real smooth in there. Boxing, moving, spinning off Pacquiao, giving him angles. Then he's gonna explode. Just needs to keep his chin tucked, throw 3s and 4s to avoid the counter and sit sown on those body shots. He can hurt Pac with body shots, those are his cleanest most effective punches in his arsenal. I cant believe the fight is already here. Im calling an upset of the year Bradley by a clear UD. Cards will be close but Bradley will secure his rounds.

    There's no quit in Bradley. Pac will havr to put Tim to sleep before his confidence is broken.

    Pac may or may not have lost a step who knows but im glad Bradley doesnt think so..hes prepared for any Manny

    Manny vs JMM was either just yet another styles make fights scenario or Pac is really on the slide

    my guess is we may see the best Manny possible, on 24-7 he is eliminating distractions getting in touch with himself and admitting that he needs to take this more serious and train better we may just see a better Manny

    on the flip 24-7 says Manny is distracted but then he wins in dominant easy fashion they say this to sell fights, now they say he is motivated after a bad fight to get us re interested, maybe HBO 24-7 flip flopped the Manny script because he is on the slide
