    Does Bradley have any chance against Pacquiao in a rematch?

    Like most knowledgeable boxing fans, I thought the first fight was an easy win for Pacquiao. With Arum's corrupt judges removed, do you think Bradley has any chance to beat Pacquiao in the rematch or is the outcome of a Pacquiao victory (barring another clear robbery) pretty much just a formality?

    After the few rounds Pacquiao dominated Bradley adapted to Pacquiaos style. A rematch would be much tougher for Pacquiao. Pacquiao wouldn't surprise Bradley like he does to most of his opponents because Bradley's already seen what he can do.

      Considering Bradley didn't get dominated as some suggested, with one (perhaps two) messed up ankles/legs I think he's got a shot.

      Pac can't change his style, he isn't suddenly going to be able to surprise Bradley in a rematch.

          Forget about it. He looked so lost in the first fight, I can't imagine what a pissedoff Pac does to him...

              I am a big Pacquiao fan an would expect him to win. But Bradley is a very good fighter and has a chance to be beat any fighter his weight. Boxing is very unpredictable. Bradley could have a good night and Pacquiao could have an off night for one reason or another.

                  yes he does. if anybody knows anything about boxing. they would understand that pacquiao is one dimension.he couldnt take out a injured bradley and bradley is a avarage fighter.if pacquiao learns how to fight and make adjustments.then he beats bradley everytime.

                    Pac didn't do as well as you might think. Those slow mo vids clearly show Pac missing tons of shots due to Tim's movement, even though his ankles were messed up. Tim hit Pac with a lot of punches that no one talked about and Pac got credit for doing more than he actually did.

                    I think Pac was lucky that it was Tim's first PPV headline and that he hurt his ankles. Still thought Pac did enough to pull it off but he didn't look impressive to me.

                    In a rematch, I think Tim boxes the entire time and leans to his left instead of his right and uses his jab a whole bunch. Bradley just doesn't have enough power to drop Pac but he still busted his mouth up while Pac couldn't even drop an injured Bradley or make him bleed.

                    If Pac fights the same way in a rematch he gets outboxed by a very confident Bradley.
