Well most of us knew this Tim, but I still had to explain it to some a few days ago.
100% guarantee that Bradley will outweigh Pacquiao in the Ring when they fight.
Bradley will outweight Pacquiao at the weigh-in as well.
So Bradley has said he is bigger, will look bigger and will actually be bigger, so lets put to bed this argument that Pacquiao is taking on a smaller fighter.
Another two year after this fight we would have the same scenario in regards to Hatton fighting Mayweather at 147, Haters would refer to Bradley as a light-welterweight, Just like they do now when talking about Hatton fighting Mayweather.
Hatton went back to light-welter, because he was never a true welter and his main strengths were severely diminished at welter.
Bradley won't be returning to light-welter.
Plus Pacquiao is naturally smaller than Mayweather.
And that somehow negates the fact that Bradley's demonstrated no significant success above 140?
Giving Cotto a rematch at 154 would have been infinitely more interesting. But Pac wanted his catchweight because apparently he won't fight above 147. Good thing he went and selected a 140 pounder to emphasize that point.
What difference does it make? Pac will probably come in lighter than 147. Bradley can come in at 141 or 142 if he wants. Only Floyd fanboys are trying to discredit this fight. Outside of PAC/PBF or PAC/Sergio (unrealistic); this is the best fight that he could have taken.
