    All this doesn't matter. Bradley will bring it on fight night and anyone who thinks differently don't know him.

    i would be smiling to if i were bradley...
    hes opponent is giving him the most exposure he will ever get, the biggest payday he is likely to get anytime soon and is also ripe for the picking after hes recent performance against JMM

    even if he looses he still wins..

    This is a foreign concept to a lot of fans on this forum. Probably because a lot of them haven't engaged in sports at a high level.

    ^ :good
    That's why these guys are successful professional prizefighters and you're not.
    In fact, I derive enjoyment from seeing Manny doing that goofy happy-go-lucky walk-in, greeting well-wishers and fans...
    then blasting opponents away in the ring. He's the only fighter I recall doing this - have there been others like this? Would be interested in watching them.
    :lol:
    That's cool. Nick Diaz is of the same ilk. Then you have guys like Manny and Jon Jones.
    :lol: We should dub this The Pinoy Ploy
    Say it to their faces:hey

    Roach said Manny is the nice guy...Bradley could be appealing to that. I don't see Bradley being that nice in the ring, but it is strange to see himbe so friendly. At the end of the day, just like politicians, they're all getting payed.

    So because I won't attempt to be BFF's with the guy I'm about to fight that is proof of my inability to be a successful professional prizefighter. That's some flawed logic with guys like Tyson, Ali, Mayweather, etc, never going out of their way to be liked by the opposition. Were they successful?

    Take no notice of that. Bradley will go into the fight with a 'kill me to beat me' type of mentality.

    Some of you will never get it, when you are a boxer and you step in the ring with your opponent, while you are trying to destroy each other physically, there is a comradery in there, difficult to describe.

    At the end of most bouts they always embrace, no boxer genuinely hates his opponent (with a few exceptions) this is a sport where to warriors clash, it is their love for their sport that brings them together. Think of two men in love with a woman attempting to win her affection. They may despise each other in the ring. But after the bell sounds, and the better man won (or was robbed)

    They have no ill will, and that is why they embrace at the end. Leave it in the ring.

    If you are a young kid that looked up to a boxer and idolized him imagine a dream come true it is to step in the ring against him, I can't blame Bradley, in many ways I am jealous of him.......

    Bradley admires Pac, with good reason too, and then end of the bout regardless of who wins they will be friends. They will admire each other, and share a mutual respect.

    :devil I was just trying to :stir Besides, I already re-addressed later on my post.

    IMO, Tyson was pretty respectful for most his career, right down to tenderly (creepily?) wiping blood away from Lennox's face after their bout.
