    true, but Pacquiao did take on Bradley's style and got the better of it for the most part. When Bradley changed it up and used his jab and threw punches in 1's and 2's, Pacquiao just tried to force the issue and that cost him a few rounds.

    I still had Pacquiao winning by 2/3 rounds as did most people. But I do agree Bradley wasn't running, but with Pacquiao pressing forward, he had nowhere to go but backwards and out of the way

      I was just wondering...

      From what I am reading I must assume that many of you guys found Ali vs Frazier I extremely boring? Ali ran all night (according to your standards).

      And pretty much the same goes for Holmes against Shavers, correct?. Holmes was "running and jabbing" , and even got knocked down before Shavers gassed around round 8th.

      And no, I'm not comparing Bradley to Ali or Holmes, just trying to understand the logic behind a certain reasoning.

      Ps: During the training camp Bradley said that in order to avoid Pac's combination, he only needed to step back and move to the side. ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQSp...4&feature=fvst )

        Again, just about everyone had him winning wide against an undefeated p4per. How's that not effective? Funny thing is, a lot of people making your argument say he was ineffective vs Mosley also.

          Not every opponent would stand in front of you face first AKA Hatton/Margarito, Bradley barely ran, he made Pac miss by just ducking punches something Pac previous opponents aren't use to.

            It was a head butt let's keep it real!!!!! That was his best weapon all night you may need to go back & watch the fight again he kept going down & coming up w/ his head throughout the fight. There is not even an argument to be had the entire world knows who won the fight.

              Pac reads the forums and even he knows the general consensus is Bradley hurt his ankles ducking and diving for dear life. Hes never had to duck and dodge like that, has nevermet anyone as ferocious as Pac.

              Bradley never sparred or fought anyone like what Pac bought to the table so his ankles couldnt cope with the stress placed upon them. Next time he fights Pac or someone like Pac he will need to build the strength up in his ankles or will need ankle supports.

              But Bradley knows he didnt win that fight, as he didnt follow his own plan or blueprint on how to beat Pac, which was take the fight to Pac, unlike what JMM did.

                No, you can see when Bradley likely hurt his foot, and it was stumbling because he was running. He didn't run during the entire fight, but its how he got hurt.
