          All Bradley said was the truth. He's not allowed to find it funny?

                I think if Manny wins he definitely should get big credit. I somehow see him still being denied but this will be a legit win if he gets it, for sure. Bradley's an underdog and up until this point has fought in relative obscurity but I think he's definitely the most 'live' underdog other than Marquez that Pacquiao has faced in a few years.

                  It depends on how he wins. If Bradley freezes up or looks like doo-doo then I'm not sure it changes anything. If Bradley comes to fight and Pacquiao proves to be a league ahead then applaud that man. It's a solid win to add to an excellent resume.

                    So it seems like the majority of posters here think Bradley definitely will at least expose Pacquiao and probably 'win' the fight, despite probably losing on the scorecards. The reasons given for this being that Pacquiao has fought sub-par competition (either because they're past their prime, made to order, or at a catch-weight), might be slipping, has trouble with technical boxers, etc. and that Bradley is an undefeated and under-appreciated beast.

                    So the hypothetical question of this(posed mostly to those who think Bradley will win the fight): what will you think of Pacquiao if he actually beats Bradley convincingly? Either by KO or decision, if Pacquiao leaves no doubts as to who won, would that mean you were wrong about him, or does it simply mean you misjudged Bradley? I'm curious because I see most people acting like Bradley's definitely going to win this fight (I consider it a tossup, basically, with an edge to Pacquiao sort of dependent on which Pacquiao shows up) and I want to know what the reaction will be if Tim gets steamrolled.

                    Thoughts?
                    If he caught Tim early, it would have to be a Hatton-type punch to KO him, perfectly placed, perfectly timed. It could happen but Tim has a very underestimated defense. Assuming Pac doesn't KO Bradley early on and the fight goes the distance, I would be very, very impressed if Pac can dominate Bradley in a boxing match.

                    If he gets into a "Bradley fight" and he beats Bradley at his own game, I'd say he is nearly unbeatable. I just think that Bradley is going to present things that Pac won't feel comfortable dealing with and the confusion/frustration is going to grind him down over the long haul.

                    Bradley does little things to take away the opponent's best weapons. Pac just storms right through people with speed and combinations. The bad thing is though, if you watch Pac videos, he routinely practices a lot of the same combinations....if you study his movements, you can catch him coming in. Definitely not the easiest task given Pac's speed but for an elite pro boxer with good reflexes, Pac can be tagged cleanly and often.

                      My opinion will be the same.
                      PAC is overrated and beating Bradley won't change that fact
                      I will give credit for fighting prime fighter though.
                      Something PAC never does.
