Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Admits: I'm Concerned About Bradley's Head

They should put some padding on top of Bradley's head.

But in all honesty, some well placed elbows when dude charges with that battering ram will stop it. It ain't Pac's style, but it'd be effective

WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao (54-3-2, 38KOs) has watched the tapes and he appears to be worried. For his upcoming fight, the Filipino superstar's main concern is the alleged head butts of Timothy Bradley (28-0, 12KOs).

Manny and Roach are setting everything up so Pacquiao does'nt go toe to toe with Bradley. I say they're going to run from Bradley. All they keep talking about is how they are going to have to change their style to fight Bradley. Pacquiao is a bully and only stands with weaker fighters.

Oh please

No ref in their right mind would DQ Manny freaking Pacquiao

And plenty of fighters use their elbows effectively, Mayweather and Hopkins for starters. They are smart with their usage and place it well. And they use it masterfully as a defensive front.

Is it dirty? Sure, depending on the context and how its used. I ain't suggesting throwing hayemaker elbows, but if he sees this clown bull dog is his way in, rolling his elbow out front to protect himself would stop this dude from ramming it in. Overall, if a guy wants to come in using his head illegally, well then, the other guy is within his right to do what is necessary to protect themselves.

How could you not be worried about Timmy's melon? It's the only punch he can throw that'll actually hurt you.

Now every headbutt will be seen as deliberately initiated by Tim even though Manny crashed heads with JMM in every fight if I'm not mistaken.

Tim bradley has a head like a melon on a tooth pick! id be worries too. Shiney headed little prick

Everyone seems a little weary about this fight ending early due to headbutts, but I don't think it should be too bad when you really look at it, most of Bradley's headbutts are a result of him being so short, but Manny and Bradley are the same height so Bradley won't have to lean in and reach so much with his shots like he has to with guys that are 2 to 3 inches taller than him like his latest opponents have been, If you take a look at some of bradley's older fights with him fighting guys his own height he doesn't have headbutting issues...

Cotto is shorter than nearly everyone he fights and headbutting is never an issue, so the shortness excuse is null.

He fights with his head leading forward, that is his style. He causes so much wreckage that his headbutts causes extreme pain and duress to the opposite side of fighters whose side Timmy did ram in with his skull. Case in point, Alexander.

Its clearly a dangerous weapon. Everlast should make a glove that fits that dome
