Power-wise, is Pacquaio in for a rude awakening against Bradley?

    He threw who around?

    Luis who?

    I saw Abregu fight on FNF. He was dropped and almost stopped by a guy who was making a comeback fight after a year and a half layoff.

    Abregu was ok, but he was no beast. Beating Abregu at 147 doesn't constitute an automatic title shot.

      You're right, Abregu isn't top tier but he was decent and undefeated at the time. Bradley came up in weight and beat him thoroughly. If Bradley is trying to land the two biggest paydays, they both are waiting for him at welterweight. He just happened to land one. Nothing wrong with champion stepping up in weight to fight another one for the crown.

        Bradley hits you with a lot of short, quick punches most of the time. He'll drop you with a straight right after a double jab or a pull counter type punch.

        Abregu hadn't lost before Bradley and hasn't lost after

        Peterson hadn't lost before Bradley and hasn't lost after

        Alexander hadn't lost before Bradley and hasn't lost since


        ----Bradley looked less stellar at 147 than at 140 but he dominated 11 rounds out of 12 and wobbled Abregu several times.

          He has KD power but isn't really a KO type fighter. Pacquiao has a solid chin, and while Bradley certainly has the potential to put him on the canvas, I'm not sure I see it happening.

            Lets take into mind Abregu has a glass jaw, and got wobbled by Bradley but didn't go down... And he knocked Peterson down with a leverage shot that basically forced Peterson down, who was already bending down as low as he can be without officially taking a knee. And sure he stunned Peterson a lot in that fight, but... Peterson's not Pacquiao...

            Pac does not have a glass, in fact, his jaw is absolutely SOLID... both Marquez and Cotto hit harder than Bradley no matter what, and neither made Pac (at 147) do more than wobble back a step...

            And Pac is also not a tall fighter that fights short (fighting short was why Peterson was bending down so far and got knocked down)...

            And if ur thinking of Bradley landing a well-placed counter shot?? Naaaahhhh.... Pac's too fast and throws in combination... More specifically, Pac doesn't throw long jabs, which r what Bradley tends to counter

            Can't see it happening

              Let's take into account how many excuses you started this post with..Bottom line they where staggered or dropped,quick question,how many people stopped Abregu??So why does he have a glass jaw if he is yet to be stopped??

                  Well right off the bat, ur past posts prove ur obviously bias for Bradley...

                  Sure they're just "excuses" when ur bias... I'm sure its a lot easier to look at the general idea that "they were knocked down/hurt" when u don't take all the FACTS that were in my last post into consideration...

                  Fact, Peterson's chin is not near Pac's level

                  Fact, Abregu is a C level fighter at best

                  Fact, Bradley's money counter punch comes after slipping a long jab

                  Fact, Manny doesn't throw a long slow jab, but in fact throws short quick combinations with the fastest hands Bradley has ever seen... Which of course will negate Bradley from countering thus prevent him from landing any powerful enough shots to so called "get Pac's respect"...

                  Ur silly

                    nobody has really been able to hurt Pacquiao though, So I don't see average powered limited bradley being the one to do it, unless Pac has slid right off the map. He still looked fast and sharp against Marquez, just he can't seem to deal with Marquez aggressive feinting and counter punching. Marquez has buzzed Pacquiao but he's never had him out on his feet, even at FW.

                      yes, marquez pushed pac back with a few rights

                      also margarito hurt him with a body shot in the 6th
