Comments Thread For: Bradley, Like Pacquiao, Has Concerns With Head Clashes

[mathed]

lol, we all seen you sparring tim

Yeah and I saw Pac-Barrera I replay too.....odd that Pac's best punch seemed to be the headbutt in that fight.....where was Tim in that fight? He must have used telekinesis or something to force Pac to use his head.

Sorry Pal......PACMAN by UD or late TKO! headbutt or not!

Thanks Bradley !! I hate cuts in fights, I hate it when fights are over due to a cut, I hate paying for a fight that ends due to a cut

ESPECIALLY HEAD BUTTS !!!!!!

I appreciate Bradley acknowledging this and preparing against it.

Win a fight with yer fist not yer head !!!!

Bradley can win this fight !!!!!!!

IF anyone can beat the snot out of Pac its Bradley !!!!!!!!

Mayweather would be destroyed but not Bradley

JMM will NEVER EVER beat Pac,

IF Pac wins strong especially by KO then on to Mr. Mayweather and close the show

IT will have been quite a ride for Pac and family from poverty to riches to GOD !!!!!!!

If the heads collide,and I'm sure at some point they will, so be it. These 2 guys are both champions. They both should be able to deal with it. They both have been cut before. Everyone harps so much about Bradley using his head, but Manny tends to leap in reckessly as well causing head clashes. It something that just happens when a southpaw faces a righty. I truly think if it gets bloody and goes to the trenches, the advantage goes to Tim. I've seen fights in the past where Manny would start complaining to the ref about headbutts and low blows and seem to lose his focus. I think Manny has the advantage in power and experience, but I think its going to come down to much more than that. If Tim can take Manny's best shot, he will come out with the victory.

I've watched and studied Manny over the years and is amazed at his athletic ability. Those unorthodox combos he put together are incredible. His foot speed and in and out movement are second to know other fighter in the sport. But, these abilities were always displayed against guys who weren't blessed with the same gifts. Manny has fought and beat some hall of famers and former great champions, but none that could match his physical abilities. I would have loved to see Mosley in his prime fight Manny. I believe the outcome would have been totally different. Mosley had the same gifts that Manny has now. But he was shot by the time the 2 met. In other words, Manny has never beat any of his opponents with pure boxing skills,he beats them by being the better athlete. Come June 9th, for the 1st time in his career, he will be staring in the eyes of a hungry young undefeated champion who is just as good of an athlete as he is. With the exception of punching power, he has an opponent who can match him in every phase of the game. And to break it all the way down, Bradley is the more schooled skillfull boxer.

Pacquiao fans will be devastated to see their guy lose to this unknown champion. Those that follow the sport and know boxing already know how this fight can turn out. Me...I'm predicting Bradley beating Manny somewhat convincingly. He will taste Manny's power early, then make some key adjustments. And, thats the key to victory,adjustments. Bradley has proven he is capable of making in ring adjustments. Manny, as great as he is, has never done it. He beats guys with plan A. If someone can match him and take his power, there is no plan B. Thats why he looks bad and amateurish in some fights. Thats when all the excuses come out about leg cramps. This is the end of the road for the great Manny Pacquiao. He's done it all in the ring. He's made himself a legend. But just like Ali, Robinson, Holmes, Leonard, Duran, and all the other greats, there comes a time in your career that you get in the ring with a guy that doesn't care about your greatness. He's willing to die to take your spot.He's hungrier and at this stage, more skillfull than you. When you dig deep, he digs a little deeper. That reality will come to past for Manny on June 9th!!!

LOL,,, well shaw mang ,,,lets get a casket and just go ahead and bury Pac,,,,,whewwwwwwwwwwwww LOL

16,000 fans? Has this fight sold out yet?

It will be interesting to see how many free tickets are given away.

Bradley headbutts on purpose. Anyone who has been following him for a while now's this. I would say the most obvious case is when Bradley very obviously and purposely headbutted Abregu, that was disgraceful. But Bradley has been doing this for a while, he knows exactly what he is doing.

I guess that's why he never gets penalized for it because it's so blatant and on purpose..........oh, wait..

It's definitely a facet of his game that he's been none to keen on fixing until now . I thought that was quite weird . If it ain't broke why fix it?

Don't cry when he gets pulled up for it.

Anybody who closely watches boxing and meshes styles would know that Bradley style is a tough match for Pac. Bradley can box, move and work the ring while Manny strengths are fighters coming forward with pressure. Pac is too fast for fighters who try and smother him because Manny can move out the way and throw combos before his opponent knows what happened. The smart way for Bradley to beat Pac is to box, open Pac up, get in his grill then go to the body. Margarito softened Pac's body up and usually guys who have solid chins are a lil weaker in the mid section. Manny can't handle movement and he has to have his opponent initiate the action to dominate with his speed. I saw them wild punches Pac was throwing at JMM off balance in the 3rd fight. Manny doesn't know how to properly engage. Bradley has to take Manny's speed away and nullify his power.
