Sgt Doakes hahaha no ****

Bradley has talked more in these last 2 weeks than he has his entire career. Don't turn your confidence into arrogance. Mess around and you'll be a new phrase. "Get Bradleyed"

[JSS]

Bradley isn't a pure counterpuncher (ala Marquez) so I don't get where he thinks that he has a chance in hell? Pac will touch Bradley's chin more than one time in the fight...question is, will Bradley have enough to with-stand the touches? IMO, no. He will run ala Mosley once Bradley feels Pac's quickness and power. Mark my words, Bradley will be in survival mode in the early rounds.

[sofreshhh]

this ET lookin idiot will get sexually assaulted in the ring literaly by the pacman. fact!

Bradley is the first fighter pacroid has face that's not weight drain coming off a tremendous beating or who is not over the hill. Unless arum pays him to take a fall I can see Bradley winning this fight with relative ease. This whole pacquiao phenomenon is just a mirage, and the truth will be revealed on June 9.

Can't see Bradley winning this one, I think it really all depends on which Manny we get and how aggressive he wants to be. Bradley has good footwork but not better than Manny, Bradley has a good chin but not better than Manny's chin, that we make all the difference imo, also the fact that Bradley seems to bruise up very easily, and thats the last thing you need when fighting Manny. After the Cassamayor fight Bradley's face was all notted up and swollen and Cassamayor barely touched him, if he can do that to Bradley what do you think Manny will do? Marquez arguably won the last fight against Manny but his face was mutilated after the fight lol you got to be one tough sob to take the risks and hits that Marquez took and thats what makes him all time great, Mosley wasn't as willing after feeling the power and I think Bradley will play it the same way, Mosley basically said everytime Manny touched him he felt like his face was gonna explode lmao...

1st,Mosley was/is shot,of course he's not gonna take punches the same way he once did..

2end,Bradley has better foot movement then Pac and tbh has better defense then both Pac and JMM..JMM is a great counter puncher,but let's be honest here,he eats a massive amount of punches in just about every fight he is in..Bradley is also a very physical fighter,I hope Pac is gonna be ready for that as well(aka rough house tactics)...

3rd,who gives a **** about who's face looked like what..Like you said most felt JMM won the last fight no matter how his face looked at the end of the fight..Pac's face was not clean by any means of the word either..

That's what happens when you fight a guy that's juiced up!!!

That couldn't have been said any better.

I keep telling you that Bradley is smart...

BoxingScene.com: Pacquiao seems to struggle with pure counter-punchers. That's not really your style of fighting. Do you believe that you might have to counter-punch more often in this fight?

Bradley: I really don't know. I haven’t been in the ring with him yet. I really don't know exactly on how it’s going to go. It all depends on how Pacquiao comes out and then I'll make my adjustments in there. I already have a couple of game plans in my mind. When I get into the fight, I should prevail, I should definitely prevail...land shots on Pacquiao that other fighters didn't land and get out of trouble....counter-punch when I need to. I know Pacquiao likes to come forward and likes to **** as well.

BoxingScene.com: Thoughts on Pacquiao's power.

Bradley: If he catches me on the chin flush and I don't go anywhere - it's going to be a long night baby. I have a really good chin. I have a solid chin. I've been down officially one time. I don’t count that second knockdown with Kendall Holt. I don’t count that bro. I didn’t even go down. The first knockdown of course, a punch that I didn't see. He has power. I know he has 13 knockouts or so, but he has power. I don't know if Manny can hit harder than that. Honestly, I don’t know. Kendall is a big guy, naturally bigger than Manny and he's very strong. When I fought him he was primetime. We'll have to see. After the first round...I'll know what I can do after the first round.

Boxingscene.com: When you previously made a move to welterweight in 2010, against Carlos Abregu, most people felt that you didn't look the same as you usually do at 140-pounds. Was there anything that you did wrong, maybe with bulking up, that you plan to change for this fight?

Bradley: At that time, I worked on one game plan for Abregue and he came in with a whole different strategy. I thought he was going to be aggressive and that he was going to come forward and **** me out, but then he came with a whole different strategy. He was the bigger guy, but he laid back and was trying to lure me in. I was like 'man, we didn't train for this.'

Abregua was trying to box a little bit. He was using his jab and trying to set me up for counters and jabs. I was amazed. It kind of threw me off. When I watched tapes, he came in like a wildman with other guys. I think by that, coming in and having to make the adjustments in the ring - it kind of threw me off. He was also a little awkward to hit, to catch his timing.

Bradley is doing a lot of talking lately. Maybe its to sell the fight to the nonbelievers. But still even with all that talk, Tim is going to train like a mad man. Hands down, he will be Manny's toughest opponent in years. Besides Marquez, Manny hasn't had to dig deep in years. His last toughest fights outside of Marquez was his 1st 2 fights with Morales. And that was a battle worn Morales at that. I give Manny a puncher's chance. If Manny catches any fighter flush with that straight left or left uppercut, he will do damage.I just don't see him catching Tim.

Manny fights the same style in every fight. Tim can fight him in a few different ways. I truly believe Tim can outbox him, but it might be hard to get a clean cut decision that way. If he pressures Manny all night with a lot of head movement and viscious body shots, he can make it an easy fight to judge. Tim should fight Manny the same way Peterson fought Khan. He just needs to use his jab more and have more head movement. Roach fighters can't handle that type of pressure. They are not trained to.

Its a fact that Manny hates it to the body. He's been KO'd with a body shot.Plus he does not like rough house tactics. I see him complaining all night to the ref.This fight will be a shock to a lot of people. I think its the end of the road for some of these elite fighters. I think 2012 or 2013 will be the end of the road for Manny and Marquez. They brought out the best in each other and they make exciting fights together. But like Ali vs Frazier in their 3rd fight, they will never be the same fighters afterwards. The stage has been set for a new champion to take over. This is Bradley's opportunity. Floyd's downfall is near as well.

I've been watching boxing for nearly 25 years. I can honestly say that most of the great fighters do not go out on top or with a great performance. Also, they normally go out by losing to someone no one really knew was a threat. Manny is a hall of famer hands down, but his time is up. The writing has been on the wall for some time now. The same with Marquez and Floyd. I have a feeling that its going to be Khan or Alverez that catches up with Floyd. Its just apart of boxing. Out with the old and in with the new.

[Leohappy]

bradley doesn't have much power at welter, he couldn't even stop abregu, and struggled a couple of times in that fight.
it will be a dec. for pac, or late stoppage.
