Comments Thread For: Tim Bradley: Pacquiao is Not The Bigger Man in The Fight

[Larry the boss]

I don't recall that he has weighed in on fight night for years. He usually refuses. So we don't know his fight night weight. Considering his size and build, it could easily be 155 or more. He does this deliberately to perpetuate the myth of the unbeatable, lighter than anyone else, superman. Also not doing anything he doesn't want to.....like a child.

he was 150 with ortiz......if you actually watched boxing you'd know this

So you rate Bradley and think he will beat Pacquiao.

Fair enough.

Hope to see you give props to the winner whoever that may be.

Dude... ignore the troll

Who says he was trying in that Casamayor fight? Saying Bradley brings nothing is also an ignorant thing to say. Are you an ignorant person?

Saying that Bradley wasnt trying is the most idiotic thing anyone can say!!! He was on a big undercard and was givin a chance to show and demonstare under a new banner what he could bring to the table!! Unfortunatly it wasnt much!!! And giving u the benefit of the doubt that he wasnt trying, well i feel for him!!! Any boxer, no matter the opponent, should always bgring his A game!! Very ignorant of u to say such stupidity!!!!

Pacyow definitley has got a lot of miles on him the way he fights that barroom brawler style wont help him in the long run ,thats great for making fans but not longevity,Bradley should create a very formidable challenge but well see, pac is slightly fading but his 2 recent lousy performances had more to with his opposition than pac being faded,the ghost of Mosley and JMm turned to pacs right and pac just gets lost when that happens. this fight will tell us alot it will tell us if mosley and JMm are just that good or if pac is on his way out. this is 10x a better fight than cotto against anyone,cotto vs pac 2at any weight, wouldve gone down as one of the worst rip-offs in boxing history! count on Pac to give the public what they DONT want to see . He now has to fight a credible threat , this is a fight pac's incessant cherry -picking has produced just like the JMM fight only without the ppvs or buzz, Since pac just priced himself out of another butt kicking by JMM this is about as good as it gets in the in-house garbage that is TOP SKANK.Should be an entertaining fight.

<__<..This talk somehow ended up about Floyd.... Can't the pac fans just let it go? They're not fighting. It happens. Bradley and Cotto need to win so we can all drop this little thing.

Bradley was coming off a long layoff so he was working off ring rust & getting some rounds under his belt. He probably wasn't trying too hard considering, he was trying to get a Pacquiao fight & Pacquiao don't fight anyone coming off an impressive performance. Let's take a look at the list of possible opponents Bob presented to Pacquiao for his next fight.
1. Mayweather- KO Ortiz- nope too dangerous.
2. Marquez- beat PAC- nope too tough.
3. Peterson- hard fought decision over Khan- nope, too hungry.
4. Cotto- TKO Margarito- Nope only @ 147
5. Bradley- lack luster performance against an old Casamayor. Yes perfect candidate.

Bradley is going to be a other Joshua Clottey!...(Fukin Bob Arum Top Rank fighters)

Bull. Totally different scenarios. Go look at D4's post. Bradley isn't going back to 140, plus he fought at higher weights previously. Further, you were clearly referencing PBF fighting Hatton at 147 while PAC fought Hatton at 140. I have not seen too many people disparage Floyd for fighting Hatton at 147 on its own, but people do say that PAC's win vs Hatton was better because it was at Hatton's natural/best weight. That is obviously the point you were trying to make. And it's bull...

Who told you Bradley planned on staying at 147??? Did Bradley call you and tell you this??? Show me a link where Bradley says he's stay at 47......

WAITING ON YOU!!!

LiL Timmy need to win by KO so i hope he right bout having more upper body strength. IDK who has the larger melon tho him or PAC lmao

[JOM'S]

wow so Bradley loses 15-20 lbs for a 140 fight. But Cotto being asked to give up 2lbs for Manny DLH being asked to lose 5 more lbs to get to 147 and blah blah blah...
Thats good then he wont have noooo problem making weight and the haters cant say **** about him going up 7lbs hehe

imho almost all fighter do cut about that much to fight at their fighting weight in part to gain advantage or just keep up with the normal standards with the 24 hours weighin ... seen lightweights go 150+ at fight night
