There is a blueprint on how to beat Manny. Even though Mosley lost and looked bad doing it, he provided insight on how to beat him. First of all, Tim needs to make the fight boring in the early rounds. He needs to circle to Manny's right and always stay out of punching ranch. When Manny gets close, he needs to tie him up on the inside, but let a few body shots go before the ref breaks them. He has to stay busy with the jab all night.
When Manny unloads his shots, Tim needs to just cover up and not try to counter. If so, he could get caught with a short powerful shot the way Cotto did. Wait until Manny finishes and takes a step back, then attack. He needs to apply a lot of pressure from rounds 8 to 10. He needs to force Manny to the ropes and unload to the body and finish to the head. Tim is the younger man and doesn't have as many miles on him as Manny, so he should be the fresher fighter towards the end.
Manny can not fight on the inside, so that advantage goes to Tim. Manny does not make good adjustments during the fight, Tim does. Manny had a hard time hitting Marquez and Mosley, and Cotto when they gave him movement. That is how Tim defeated Peterson, by sticking and moving. Realistically, tim is the better technical boxer. I give Manny a puncher's chance. He is very capable of catching Tim with something big. But, I just think tim has been wanting this fight for too long to lose focus and get caught. Timothy Bradley defeats Manny by split decision.!!!
