    Would Tim Bradley be a harder fight for JMM than Pac was?

    I see a lot of people saying that Tim's hand and foot speed will trouble Marquez. But Pacquiao has fast hands and feet as well, and he arguably lost to JMM.

    I don't think so because the only time he ever utilized hand and foot speed was in the Peterson fight, he just swarms in most fights which would play right into JMM's counter punching hands.

      Bradley would do a lot better than Pacquiao did the in the 3rd fight, that I'm certain of. Bradley can take it to Marquez and if that doesn't work, he'll box.

        He is not a good enough boxer to box with JMM I don't think.

          yes. Pac's style is something that an aging fighter like Marquez prefers, whereas Bradley has that in your face younger warrior style that is not good to face if you're an aging fighter like Marquez that's why I think Bradley can beat Marquez and certainly will give him a far harder fight than Pacquiao did

            Chris John was, Juan Diaz in the rematch, in spots, was able to box with Marquez. I can definitely see Bradley forcing Marquez to take the initiative, and Marquez ain't nearly as effective when he's forced to do that. On top of that, Bradley will touch Marquez's body.

              The only reason JMM didn't get sparked the **** out in 1 round is because as soon as the bell run he went into full on survival mode.

              He still ended up looking like the elephant man and got out landed and out thrown lmao

                Diaz lost every round and John really just kind of spoiled by forcing JMM to take the initiative but he is a very good boxer himself I have not seen Bradley show that consistently, he really only did one time.

                    Yes he would be, Poochiao's ability is miles ahead of Bradley but Poochiao is very 1 diemensional, Bradley can fight 3 different ways, on the inside, brawl & on the outside, if he uses those 3 game plans against Marquez in different parts of the 12 round fight & keep switching up it'll be hard for Marquez to adjust, whilst it was easy for Marquez to adjust against Poochiao because like i said, he only knows how to fight 1 way.
