So what exactly does Bradley have to do to beat Pacquiao?

[IronDanHamza]

To beat Pac he'll need;

Better defense.

Be a better counter puncher.

If he's overly aggressive he's getting stopped most likely.

[PACsmash]

Big dumb so I guess there's no point in a PAC vs Floyd match because Floyd won't be able to knock manny out and the judges are manny friendly or in ur words bob friendly, so Floyd can't win based on ur logic?

Where u at brAhhh... Using ur logic Floyd won't be able to win hell bring on Martinez he won't beat PAC either because the judges are PAC and bob friendly

[BigStereotype]

A combination of prayer, steroids, loaded wraps and a gun wouldn't hurt. Still wouldn't guarantee him a win.

counter punching boxing 101,,, when pac throwes he tends to lunge in bradley should then clinch on the inside and follow up with the head,,be slick

[mathed]

he has no chance of winning , bradley will get KTFO!!

73,357 e-points says otherwise

Stay patient, use his jab,counter punch, and feint. Go to the body, and back Pac up. Pac has very bad balance, his foot work is that of a clown in a circus act, jumping around and skipping. If Bradley remains patient and place his shots to the body, he will frustrate Pac, and by the late rounds Pac will be less mobile, and confused. A sitting duck! Bradley is a very good boxer, I personally believe that if Pac s not on the juice and comes clean lke he did in his last Marquez fight, Bradley will stop Pac late in the fight. If Pac is on the juice Bradley will not be able to hurt Pac and Pac will be to hyper active therefore he will ko bradley early. No juice Bradley wins, if Pac is on the juice then Pac wins.

you notice how pac lunges in with his punches perfect time for bradley to lunge in with his head then clinch

All Bradley has to do is follow the blueprint that JMM set forth:

Box from all angles

Never move straight back/only to the sides

Stay busy on the inside/avoid mid-range exchanges

Whenever Pacquiao starts bouncing, prepare to guard and slip

Work from behind the jab but don't rely on it so heavily that you become predictable/mix up different punches throughout

Come in prepared to box 12 FULL ROUNDS

When and if you hurt him, go to the body like a demon, not the head

Most importantly, don't let Pacquiao get off to a good start. The way Pacquiao begins often times sets the bar as to how well he'll do. Manny knows he isn't the best boxer, so he tries to build up a lead early on in case things get difficult later on. If Bradley can establish some respect in the first 3 rounds, Manny will be reluctant to frequently dart in and out.

You see .. the secret to Manny's success is two-fold.

First, Roach understood a while ago that few boxer's today have a SOLID, NON-LAZY JAB. Most boxers use it to probe .. and they paw with it and put next to NOTHING behind it. A jab is only as useful as the commitment behind it.

Second, Manny is a southpaw, meaning he leads with his right. If you watch the majority of his fights, he scores knockdowns by leaping passed a fighter's primary weapon .. the left jab .. and then tees off with his own straight left.

Its so simple and effective that it should be criminal, but some fighters fall for it. Especially the plodders who only move forward and backwards.

The secret to JMM's success in the last fight in which he dominated was the fact that he actually boxed and moved laterally instead of standing and trading in order to create attempts to counter.

Moving out of the way of Pacquiao's left completely shut down any offense strikes Manny attempted. Manny was left looking awkward and more importantly desperate to land something big.

The problem for Bradley is that none of us know whether he'll have JMM's ability to counter or JMM's ability to stay calm in the pocket. If Tim can execute what I wrote above, he's got a REALLY good chance up delivering an upset. If not, then I don't see what he can do as his physical attributes have never come across as exceptional.

Best way to do it.

Thoughts?

I think he needs to take advantage of Pacquiao's weak points.

Go for the body. Cut off the ring after giving him hard body shots (don't let him slither away like he did rd. 6 against Margarito)

You have to run like Mosley and he will win according to some fans even if he lost in one sided decision just like Mosley.
