Bradley can't punch for **** and has looked even weaker at 147, Manny beats the **** out of him. No way they let him butt Manny like he's grown acustom to.
I love how pacquiaos invincible aura vanished after the Marquez fight
What are you talking about, Pacman tears Bradley a new a$$ hole, cracks open that forehead of his and finds out Bradley was hiding Quato from Total Recall all along, the Pacman is invincible..

Marquez is a HOF fighter Bradley is not and so his style of fighting. To beat Pac you have to fight like Marquez, has a one punch ko plus an iron chin in which Bradley hasnt. Pac will give Bradley the worst beating in his career and will never be the same after this fight.
Shocking poll results.
I think Pac makes short work of Bradley. I don't expect many if anybody to agree but I wouldn't at all be surprised if Bradley got flattened in a similar way to Ricky Hatton.
Pac & Floyd are horrible, horrible, horrible matchups for Bradley. He doesnt win a round against either guy and if Pac is on his game like I think he will be then he routes Bradley in 5 or less
Bradley would be beat Pacquiao with his ugly ass style. I would definitely root for Pacquiao. I don't like watching Bradley fight, just can't get in to his fights. But he would win, and the same people saying Pacquiao beats him easiyl or whatever, will say that Pacquiao is just too old or doesn't have it anymore, or can't pull the trigger, cause that's how Bradley's ugly style will make Pacquiao look.
Bradley clearly beats Pacquiao if this fight happens. But like I said, I wouldn't want that, as much as I don't like Pac and don't think highly of him, he does have an exciting style for his fans and the casuals. While Bradley does not. And it's not like Bradley is like Mayweather and Ward who can give you a bunch of different styles in different fights.
I have a question. How dangerous is Pacquiao being an underdog?
Dangerous. Ask Barrera.
Can't believe he'd be underdog in this fight , though.
I mean think about it...can you really picture the HBO crew nuthugging Bradley throughout the fight?
I'm a big Timothy Bradley fan, but I just can't pick him to beat Manny Pacquiao. I wouldn't be shocked either way, but I'm certainly not picking against the guy.
Bradley's biggest problem is that he doesn't have the punch to hurt Pacquiao. He also doesn't have the BEST defense or chin. He can be tagged and he can be dropped by fast, hard shots he isn't expecting. (Sound like someone?)
Still, I can see Bradley having a chance if he chooses to box the way he did against Lamont Peterson, but I still see Pacquiao moving forward and getting a solid decision. Wouldn't be surprised either way, though.
Yes, exactly. I think he may get caught up in the moment during the beginning half of the fight and hurt, where Marquez III didn't. Because he doesn't have the master skill of JMM or the athleticism of Manny himself, I don't see many ways he can get Pacquiao to respect him enough to not just try to stand in there and land in between Tim's shots and hurt him, with a KO possible at any time.
What he can do is get inside quickly, which he is very good at. Big possibility of a headbutt occuring there, because Pacquiao ends up fairly low as he extends inside as well. I trust Bradley will be extra careful about this because the damm PPV investment is counting on it, but anything is possible. The referee will matter in this fight.
Not advocating or hoping for a foul or cut of any kind, but if he is able to make the fight rough enough to resemble Pacquiao vs Agapito Sanchez, he might be able to fluster Manny enough to stifle the momentum Manny creates because of his style and rhythm. If he can stop and start the action and work inside, he might be able to get Manny respect and thinking about where he wants to be in the ring to avoid the inside, instead of being natural. That makes you hesitate just enough to give good fighters like Tim time to hit you from the outside, and make their way all the way inside to keep on working before holding, which Manny was forced to do in the Sanchez fight.
I don't think he can go the whole fight not trying to seek solace on the inside where Manny is not as effective, he just doesn't have the defensive skills and has no familiarity whatsoever with how fast and powerful Manny really is, or what to expect from him, where JMM and Beristein did.

I am from the opinion that Bradley isn't a great fighter but the the supposedly best of an overated division... and yes that means all his wins are hollow. I am not on the Khan, Peterson, bandwagon. I think that there isn't anything special about Bradley except his big head. I think he gets hit alot and ends up on the floor, and don't think he would last the distance vs a guy like Marco Miadana or gup... Victor Oritz much less Manny.
