Timothy Bradley will beat Manny Pacquiao in a clear cut 8-4 type of decision

Bradley continues to get better, even more so with his new trainer. Meanwhile, Pacquiao remains on the decline. Pacquiao no longer has the power to keep Bradley at bay. I don't think Pac is dedicated to the sport any longer and I don't believe he'll be motivated enough to fight someone like Bradley, who I believe Bob Arum forced on Pac. Bradley will utilize his movement, feints and aggressive inside fighting under Teddy's command. I don't hold Atlas to much regard, however I believe he will have the perfect game plan for Bradley. He will keep Bradley busy with smart exchanges only. And lastly, Bradley won't be injured unlike the prior 2 fights, where he suffered from two fractures in his feet (1st fight) and an ankle injury (2nd fight). He'll be free to move as he pleases. Feel free to bump this thread after the fight. I know I will.

Paccquiao wins 8-4, in a fight with bradley doing good early but expending alot of energy as usual. Pacquiao stepping on the gas towards the middle, putting it on Tim, then coasting to the finish (similiar to the second fight) Bradley just isn't on Pacquiao's level, and pacquiao's a very underrated boxer. He can just outbox Bradley (boxing isn't won in a few small rounds, its a 12 round fight) Pacquiao is boxing more than ever now that hes getting on with his career I love Pacquiao, but im really bummed out that he's fighting Bradley. I mean i didn't have a problem with the second fight at the time But it would have been nice for Pacquiao to face someone else Pretty accurate prediction :ANYWORD:

Bradley just doesn't have the capabilities to beat pac. The guy broke his ankles trying to keep up pac's speed. No amount of we are firemen speech is gonna help you if you are slow.

I'd love to see Bradley finally get a credible W over Pac but I think Manny has his number. Who's number does Bob Arum have?

Maybe if he hired Memo, but even then it's unlikely. His hardest shots landed on Floyd couldn't even deter him. Yeah Floyd really opened up and took it to him alright....

Bradley has looked good in his latest fight but at the same time, his latest fight was up against Rios. Anybody would have looked good against him. Rios is no Pacquiao. He didn't hurt Floyd. Wouldn't even say he stunned him. Tagged, maybe. No, Pacquiao did more than just tag Floyd. He actually hurt and that's how Floyd ended up on the ropes those times and at one point, Floyd threw his own self off balance after getting caught. Had Floyd not been cheating, Pacquiao's punches would have done far worse.

This. Bradley is decent, but really has no power. I don't think he has really improved since he last fought Manny, and Manny has not declined that much either. He will get caught harder in exchanges. He can get caught "harder" in all the exchanges he wants. The judges will see what Bob Arum wants them to see, with some help on the side. $$

No he won't, there are levels to this and even this version of Pacquiao is a level above Bradley This. Bradley is decent, but really has no power. I don't think he has really improved since he last fought Manny, and Manny has not declined that much either. He will get caught harder in exchanges.

The only way Timothy beats Manny is if Manny has slowed down. Otherwise Manny beats him 10 out of ten times. Despite what the judges may say.

Lets be fair though PBF has an exceptional chin Yeah, couple that with the fact that Pac's power has diminished and you get what you saw.

Unfortunately true, if it goes the distance I imagine Bradley getting the W unless Manny has told Arum he is fighting again. Really sad Manny hasnt taken control of his career but he has politics after. It's clear as day the fight was rigged in the first Bradley vs Pacquiao fight. I hope this one isn't the same case.

Did you not see what they did to Walters in his last fight? Walters is signed to Top Rank, however that was his last fight under contract and rumor has it he wasn't going to sign back to Top Rank. When you are of no use to Bob Arum, he treats you as such. You think it was merely a coincidence that he dominated every round and came out with a draw? On his very last fight for Top Rank? Pacquiao better up his work rate to 200% because after this fight he is no longer any use to Arum and Top Rank. Pacquiao said it himself, this is his last fight. He's not waiting around to get a rematch with Floyd, he knows Floyd isn't coming back.

If he wins 8-4 i can already see the barrage of threads showing slomo youtube videos on how he was the winner for the rest of the f uckin year. I would agree, however since this is Pac's final fight I can see most of his fans gravitating away from the sport entirely, and that includes posting on boxing forums. His hardcore didn't care too much about the sport entirely to begin with. However they do have Golovkin to rave about now it seems.

Bradley has a better chance than most but it is still unlikely. Did you not see what they did to Walters in his last fight?
