Comments Thread For: Roach: Bradley Rematch is More Likely For Pacquiao

[samouraļ]

Huh? He's fought Marquez 4 times and he's only fought Bradley once. Where are we getting trilogy from?

He clearly means Manny will win the rematch and then they'll make a trilogy out of it to "settle the score", but I don't agree. Too many people will think Manny won both fights to justify a third.

I think Manny and Bradley both will give better performances this time around, but Manny should still edge it, and he doesn't much need to worry about getting KO'd in this one so he doesn't need to play it as safe.

Both of you couldn't be more wrong. Two conditions have to be met in order to warrant a trilogy: First and foremost the rematch must be filled with non stop action (with Bradley you won't get that). And second, there must be some kind of controversy, like a bad decision as most people think happened in the first fight.

I don't see either one of these playing out, plus, If Pacquaio beats Bradley, trust me when I tell you he will absolutely move on, likely to Mayweather or finally the fight between Mayweather vs Pacquaio might take place first, who knows.

If Bradley beats Pacquaio again (And I believe he will, more convincingly), that's curtains for Pacquaio's career. A trilogy will by no means be necessary or justified so again my friend, it is highly unlikely that a trilogy will ever take place.

Mayweather is ducking him so he has no other choice really.

Lol ya sure knowing Mayweather had May 5 already booked but as soon as Pacduckiao wins against Rios they mention April when Pacduckiao fights knowing the May 5. But Mayweather is ducking u Pacfarts are so delusional its scary...

[bojangles1987]

This is almost a must happen rematch. A robbery in fight one, Bradley looking to prove he's the better man, Pacquiao looking for revenge, neither has a better option, what the hell else would either do?

[mathed]

Bradley is gonna box both of these guys up in a rematch. Bradley will be presenting 3 or 4 different styles in the ring and the jab will lead him to victory, facing him will be a career fatality for both guys.

Don't know why but if they do the rematch I will be rooting for Bradley.
I like Pacquiao and it was fun watching him shut out that bum Rios but for Bradley gets so much crap and all he does is keep winning.
Sure the first fight is a robbery but I think in a rematch you would see a Bradley that knows he would need a KO to win as he is not getting a decision under any circumstances and a Pacquiao that will be looking for an impressive victory to try and force a Floyd fight.
I think it would be a better rematch.

If they try to fight in Asia again, I expect Bradley to again turn down the fight.

Bradley-Rios and Bradley-Brooke are good alternatives. Too bad GBP has most of the welterweights tied up.

i think bob arum said that he plans on having pac fight again on april in las vegas..

[TheSurgeonMDMPH]

Here we go again with more retreaded bs!
Top Prank doing wat it does best.

[Jcsuper]

lol, Arum probably set this rematch even before the first fight. Just corrupt the judges, make an in-house trilogy and rob your fighters in the process.

[Detroit29]

WHAT?!?!? No mayweather on april 12th? Another Top Rank fighter for Pac, that Arum can control? Say it aint so? Lol
