    I really dont think pacquiao will resign himself to three straight, terrible performances. he's coming for blood in this fight. he came for blood in the marquez fight, but unfortunately, he was fighting marquez that night.

    Idk about that. He was very hesitant all throughout the fight. At times he even avoided to trade with Marquez.

    I honestly think he became discouraged as the fight wore on. he was only really aggressive early on, before marquez implemented his gameplan, and late, when he realized he was losing.

    I think the killer wanted to come out in the Marquez fight but Marquez wouldn't allow it.. I think we're going to see the first option, and the only times we haven't since ODLH was with Mosley and Margarito.. He let Margarito off bcuz he broke his face and Mosley did everything possible to keep Pac away.

    I hope Bradley fights smart, but not scary.. I hope it doesn't end on a clash of heads.. And I hope the judges are fair with the scoring, whether it goes to the cards or not.

    A part of me is worried that Pac has lost the 'eye of the tiger'. he has alot of success, and his out of ring interests are growing. This may be a bad night for him and his fans.

    I know one thing, if Pacs gonna win, he better win big ... the prospect of a Mayweather fight is beginning to wane due to his "averag" performances since Cotto.

    Let's face it, the Clottey fight was hardly a barnstormer either.

    Please dont insult this forum!
    If Pacquiao loses to Bradley it wont be because he's lost the eye of the tiger as you say, it will be because he doe'snt have a stationary target to hit.

    Every fighter since Pacquiao's move to welter that he's beat has either been slow and stationary or scared to get off like Shane Mosley.

    Pacquiao fights that same version of DLH that he beat this saturday night, he'd chop him up to pieces the same way and maybe even worse as Pacquiao has become more accustomed to fighting as a welter now and would likely press the issue and land with more power against DLH.

    Give Pacquiao a slow stationary target and his footwork and in and out movement would be made to look like the second coming of SRR, otherwise he's made to look vulnerable everytime.

    I think that Pac is so used to smile so much that he is covering well his animal insticts of decapitating this guy in a short fight. If Bradley holds on to heymakers and that is gonna be very difficult specially from the psychologic POV cause he may take a knee, get his composure and shake it off but he won't be able to do what JMM was able to do specially in the 1st round of their first outstanding fight. Let's be reasonable, if pac lands some of those power right hooks to this guy's chin and he is slightly off guard for a second...

    Regardless of which Pacquiao shows up, Bradley is going to be a little difficult because he's good. But to say that Pacquiao hasn't slowed down or doesn't have that fire anymore is crazy.

    I think Bradley is going to bring the fight to Pacquiao and make him earn that win.
