    Manny still has exceptional speed as he was able to dodge incoming punches as well as tag Bradley with solid ones along the way, the power may have dipped a bit but i think Manny was not going for the knock out in this match for he was always looking out for the counter, that's why he was not sitting down on his punches more... But one thing that i noticed the biggest difference is in Manny's HUNGER for the GAME/KILL... I've noticed this ever since the Margarito fight, he is still a beast from start up to maybe a third part of the match but tends to get comfortable at the later rounds specially if he knows he was winning.... I really hope the lost will bring back the old complete beast in Manny, i hope we get to see that in the rematch....

      "he's too fast, looks like roids rage, needs to be tested"


      "doesnt throw enough power, makes too much noises, a fake...a media creation"



      Too many conflicting opinions by his haters. One day they have to make up their mind so they could prevent themselves from sounding so ignorant

        I've seen the tape plenty man, I get the same score over and over, 7-5 Manny. Rounds 7,8,9 were also competitive rounds that, live, one could understand why the judges may have given some of those rounds to Tim. My end result is always Pacquiao won, but a one sided dominant fight that was not, especially considering Bradley clearly won the last 3 rounds.
        Even with you coming to that conclusion, does that really warrant a rematch? Headed to bed because I have school in the am. Be cool.

          Even though he might be winding down, He still managed Bradley to look silly, using boxing skills rather than pure physical endurance. Something alot of the top contenders at 140 couldnt do.

            2008-2009 Pacquiao would have kayoed Bradley inside 5.


            Current version of pac is Obviously below the freakish one, but its still a GREAT fighter


            no one beats him still maybe except Floyd.

              I agree. I think we're heading towards the end of Manny's career. I think it's safe to say that he is, and has been, out of his prime years.

                Yes, especially considering Bradley was injured. Even in how dominant he looked in some of the early rounds I'm not gonna be oblivious to what happened in the second half.

                    pac looked gassed after 7 rounds...........

                    bradley did not have his confidence broken.........only a true nerd would say that.

                    when you break a guys confidence in the ring he doesn't come on as hard as bradley did in the last 3 rounds.

                    bradley is the king @ 140 (not 147) understand his limitations........when you put everything in perspective it's really not impressive at all for pac.

                    even though i think that pac won he looked tired, sloppy, & wild in there with bradley. & he let bradley stuff his jab in his face round after round. he did nothing to stop the bradley jab............

                    i like bradley but i think he's just one of those guys who has to fight @ his natrual weight to be fully functional, he's not a good weight jumper (as seen in the abril fight)

                    ortiz or berto would be much harder & tougher fights for pac @ 147.

                      He is now just one of a bunch of guys in and around 147 like khan , Bradley, ortiz and brook

                      He is clearly not the force of nature he once was, and although he got robbed here he is one or two fights away from losing clean to a "normal" fighter

                      He can still look good against certain fighter. But another win it's time Manny. The Mayweather ain't gonna happen anyways.
