There is no way Bradley wins and avoids the uppercut

[them_apples]

He's shorter than Pacquiao and comes in head first. He's gonna get caught with a huge left uppercut and get finished. There is also no way Bradley hurts melonhead.

[Wreckless]

Bradley will be a bit taller than Pacquiao.

[Carpe Diem]

Bradley will be a bit taller than Pacquiao.

How so? They're about the same height. BoxRec listed Manny's height at 5′6½", but he's really only about 5'6". Bradley is listed at 5'6", and i think it's his legit height.

[Filo]

Bradley is no Marquez unless he can fight exactly like Marquez i don't see this guy winning.If he gets HIT at will he's going to say oh **** wtf did i get my self into.Marquez knows how to beat Manny.Defuse that left hand and attack at an angle not come straight.Keep circling and pick your shots but if Bradley thinks he can out power Manny he is in a world of pain.

[Silencers]

I see two punches working well for Pacquiao, the left uppercut and his looping left hand. Bradley's head comes up when he hooks, Holt was quick enough to catch him with the left hook as Bradley's head came up, I expect Pacquiao to be able to do something similar.

[urrah]

Anybody who's seen Pacquiao throw an uppercut knows that it's not his best punch.

That reminds me, has anyone seen the video of Pacquiao when he uppercuts himself in the face, I think it was against Morales of Marquez.

I don't know why so many people think that Bradley has to come forward to beat Manny. I think he will use the same game plan as Marquez early. But he will go to the body much more. I see him mixing it up more in the later rounds.To be honest, Manny has already been exposed. Taking a step back and circling to his right drives him crazy and frustrates him. ****m Richardson said himself that Mosley showed the world how to beat Manny. The problem with Shane was, he didn't throw punches. But, he made Manny miss a lot. Bradley will make him pay for his mistakes.

Bradley reminds me a lot of a small version of Holyfield. Evander was very skilled, but he was a beast on the inside. He could out box you or out **** you. But, either way, he did it with intelligence.He also knew how to rough you up on the inside and use his head without making it look intentional. Sound familiar??? Manny, on the other hand, reminds me of Tyson, a phenom who relies on his natural ability. Usually when these 2 different style of fighters meet up, the skilled boxer wins.

I honestly give Manny a puncher's chance to win. I think that Bradley is the all around better fighter and has finally been given the opportunity on the big stage to show it. A lot of people will be shocked of the outcome. But, diehard boxing fans already know. Manny has had his run. And it was a great run!!! But at 33 or 34, he is not the same devastating fighter he was 5 years ago. He will have a young skilled, hungry and determined champion in his face for 12 long rounds. At this point in his career, he just doesn't have what it takes to deal with it. The proof is in his last 2 fights. To beat Bradley, he will need a very good jab and be able to fight on the inside once the fight goes there. Neither is his strength. After June 9th, we will have a new superstar in the sport. MARK MY WORDS!!!

Bradley is going to go at Pacquiao, work his body, and clinch a lot. It won't look pretty, but if Pacquiao isn't his sharpest it could work.

Absolutely fantastic assesment! I agree entirely.

[PAC-BOY]

Bradley is gonna need to know how to adjust quickly. Pac will overwhelm him with speed and power. Safety mode will kick in and Pac will get off. He has fought no one with relentless pressure like this. If he keeps it together upstairs and sticks to his game plan he has what it takes to give Pac problems. Gonna be a good fight imo.
