Tim can outbox Manny. If he stay focused and alert the whole fight, he will outpoint Manny. But if he gets careless, Manny could catch him with something big. I just think that Tim is too disciplined for that and is too hungry at this point. Manny is a great action fighter, not a great boxer. This is why Arum never puts him in the ring with "slick" boxers. Manny is a simple ordinary fighter when he's in with a superior boxer. That's why we haven't seen it much. Marquez is a prime example. Arum will take that risk because Juan Ma is an older fighter who can get ****** into a brawl. Marquez fooled them last time around and stuck to his fight plan and didn't get caught into heavy exchanges with Manny.
Tim will not worry about pleasing the crowd. He will simply be looking for the victory. If that means outpointing him in a boring fight, then so be it. When I read articles about Manny blowing this guy out, I wonder where the logic is coming from. Tim has proven to be a solid champion. He's showed the skill, the heart, and the chin. He's no different than Floyd before he fought Oscar. Floyd was known to the die hard boxing fans. He was not exciting, but was very skilled. Who would have thought that he would become the PPV king? But the win over Oscar propelled him into another orbit.
Well the same will happen to Bradley after this fight. Manny is very gifted but still has enough weak points to his style that he will be exploited by someone like Tim. This mite sound crazy, but the only chance that Manny has is a puncher's chance. Tim is so mucher better than him in almost every catagory. Its skills that pay the bills, as they say, and Tim is highly skilled.
Tim has a good consistent jab, throws good straight or looping right hands, has a good hook and uppercut, and is great fighting on the inside when working the body. He's as effective fighting on the inside as he is fighting from a distance. He has good footwork, good head movement and isn't easily hit. He adapts well in fights. And most importantly,when fighting against guys like Manny, he can take a good shot and not be rattled. Add that all up...and its a nightmare for Manny. This will be the coming out party for Timothy Bradley!!!Last edited by jvsnypes; 01-28-2012, 09:51 AM.

I used to think so, but then after more thought probably not. Team Pacman will look for a very easy confidence building cherrypick. Pacman cannot afford to wind up in another even & hottly contested controversial contest.
I don't think it wil go over well if he gets another W in a fight that most felt he lost. He'll lose even more fans & further exposed.
