Comments Thread For: Bradley Will Come in Light For Pacquiao, as Low as 144

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

They could fight at 160 and Pac still beats him senseless. Weight will have ZERO impact on the outcome.

Great weight for this kinda fight..I'm getting pump by the sec...

Both Bradley and Pacquiao are small welterweights. Pacquiao never weighed in at the limit. He was always 144-145 lbs at the weigh-in.

Good, good, good!

I was worried Bradley would want to come in big.

If he was smart hed use his strength to his advantage. Trying to "go light" to match Pacs speed is kind of ******. No matter how low you get he we still be much faster than Bradley.

He's doing both, he bulked up now he is trimming the fat so he'll be lighter, faster and stronger....he'll have the same fat % that he did at 140 but he'll have about 4 extra pounds of pure muscle to bully Pac around the ring with.


Bradley knows what he is doing, he won't come in head first, he won't come straight in at Pac - he'll use angles, he won't stand there and trade with Pac - he'll box Pac and slip away at an angle.

I could see that but Bradley will be sadly mistaken if he thinks he'll be able to slip those lasers.

To win...he needs to use his strength, make Pac uncomfortable and believe it or not he needs to butt him a couple of times. Seriously. Pac has always ben shown wayyyyyyyy to much love in the ring if Bradley could get nasty with Pac hed could win.

I'm worried bradley's lunging forward style (similar to Ward, Hopkins) may put him at a disadvantage to a fighter like Pacman that fights so well backing up. Bradley could very well get clocked hard with a Pacman punch while he's lunging in. Obviously Pacman will demand and get a large ring in the 22ft or so vicinity, so it's going to be his fight. Bradley can be explosive. I haven't seen enough of Bradley though to really warrant a good enough opinion. Only seen 2 of his fights.

But I'll say this, with Bradley having virtually no fan base, the odds should def be skewed in PacMan's favor. If it's more than 7-1, it might be worth throwing down a Benjamin on Bradley!

This. Gotta strongly consider it. Bradley's intelligence makes me feel different about this fight for some reason. Bradley is gonna do his homework studying Manny's habits on film so Manny BETTER come in the best shape of his life for this one.
