    Manny deserves credit if he fights Bradley he is a quality fighter, I just don't see Bradley as that much of a threat to him.

    The fight might also be rather ugly.

    Still it is a quality fight as the the upper limit on Bradley's ability is an unknown, so who knows until proven otherwise what would go down.

      I also hope it happens.

      Not only its been a while since Pac has fought a young fighter that its percieved to be in his prime, but also it would be a good preparation for fighting Floyd.

      Also if Pac manages to demolish bradley, then the Floyd vs Pac fight will be hyped up again, and people will actually give him a decent chanse against Floyd again.

      I do think that the last fight with JMM really messed up Pacquiaos image, and they need to rebuild it a little bit. (i am not saying it was a robbery or anything, for me its a close fight the kind that can go either way).

      So going back to the topic then MAKE IT HAPPEN

        PAC fighting Hoya, Hatton, and Cotto is one of the best run in history for a guy his size. Don't make me bring up all the old threads where PAC would get destroy by all if he face them.
        Not hating. Oscar was pretty crappy if you ask me. Oscar looked like how Ali looked when he fought Holmes in 80', DONE. Oscar hadn't fought at 145 lbs in like 8-9 years. That was the only fight where people could really look at the weight as an issue. I don't blame Manny for taking that fight, it pushed him into the spotlight (as Floyd was retired) and made him a mega-star.

        Hatton and Cotto were both good wins, the last good fights where I could really say "Manny picked a good opponent" going into the fight. Clottey, Margarito, Mosley, and Marquez are pretty crappy options. Granted, one could look back at Marquez now and say "Marquez was a good choice". The perception going into the fight was "Marquez is past his prime-not that good anymore. He was dominated over 2 years ago when he was better, at the very weight he's fighting Pac at tonight". NO ONE thought Marquez had a shot and he arguably beat Manny.

        But, Bradley RIGHT NOW, is an A- fight. His best pick since Marquez in 08'. He's unbeaten, Top 10 P4P, in his prime, has fought at 147 before. He gets mad props if he beats Tim, as much as Floyd got for beating Hatton no doubt. Hatton was #8 P4P, Bradley is #9 P4P. Hatton was 43-0, Tim is 28-0. Hatton was in his prime, Tim is in his prime. Hatton had fought once before at 147, Tim has fought once before at 147.

        Pacquiao-Bradley is a great fight.

          That would be a good fight it's something new I mean Pac and Mayweather are both being dumb. I would want Top Rank to put a strong undercard june 9th if this fight does happen.I got Bradley beating Pac if they do fight.

                  as a unbiased fan i dont want pac to fight bradley !!!!!!!!!!!!! not because im scared manny will loose , quite the contrary i know manny will win because bradleys style is talylor made for manny !!!!! i dont want manny to fight bradley because the fight will do pretty low numbers because bradley is a unknown !!!! unless you are a diehard hardcore boxing fan you have know idea who bradley is and that will translate into low ticket and ppv sales !!!!!! and mayfeather will use that as a road block in order to duck manny in the next negotiations !!!!!!!! manny is a super megastar in the boxing community but even his star power cant overcome bradleys lack of star power and boring boxing style !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
