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

With what 4 fighters, lol. No one in their right mind can say that with a serious face......stay away from sharp objects when you read what Pac's daddy had to say.....
"I say this to you today and I really believe it and its true, that since Ali, there hasn’t been a better fighter, better boxer than Floyd Mayweather. This young man has the teqhnique and the ability which puts him in my book ahead of such greats as Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Marvin Hagler and all the other great fighters that I’ve seen in my career. And there is NOBODY that combines all the skills of Floyd Mayweather."
Manny Pacquiao's Daddy/Promoter, BOB ARUM

no one is denying floyd is bad ass. i am a pac fan but i would favor floyd to win. i think pacs style gives him problems. a busy in your face fighter with a good punch and a southpaw too. floyd holds all the cards to all his opponents he needs to make it happen.

We don't know If Manny Is elite anymore. As a fan I would personally love to believe that that Is the case but we just might have a situation where we have a declining Paquiao and an up and coming Bradley which will make for a very close Interesting fight. I will not argue the outcome of the first fight because I am In the majority that Pac won. I just believe Bradley will make a better account of himself and possibly out box Pac In the rematch.

Yeah, this 100%

I really like Manny, enjoy watching him fight, but I'm not a blind fan like some who seem to think he poops gold lol. We do not know if he's elite truly still. He appears to be, but until he fights someone who is a real challenge we won't know for sure.

I saw the Rios fight for what it was. A tuneup fight that made him look good. Rios would try, keep coming, but unless he landed a lucky punch never had any real chance.

If Manny fights Bradley again we will have a much more accurate idea about where he truly is career-wise and as a fighter now.

Bradley won the first fight and he'd win the second as well. Totally wrong style for Manny.
Broner, Garcia, Provodnikof are all better matchups......more exciting for the fans.

Honestly this is a good fight and one that should happen but as others have pointed out where would Pacquiao go from there?

Good analysis and very true, a fight with Bradley will give us a much better Indication as to where Pacquiaos career stands. The combinations that Rios ate were reminiscent of a prime Pacquiao and It was great to see him back In fine form, but as you said, Rios style was made for Pac.

She just maybe the next HW champion of the world.

Trilogy incoming

Huh? He's fought Marquez 4 times and he's only fought Bradley once. Where are we getting trilogy from? Because I promise you wether Pacquaio loses or beats Bradley in a rematch there will absolutely NOT be a rematch for a trilogy.

[BoxingJunkie]

I'm not a Pacquiao fan but Pacquaio is good for boxing. Bradley is too risky. Another immediate loss would be curtains for Pacquaio's career. Pacquaio has NEVER decisively beaten Marquez, their fights have always been close and controversial yet Bradely not only beat Marquez but there was no one credible (emphasis on CREDIBLE) that questioned or had a problem with the decision.

I'd love to see Bradley get the payday but on the other hand we need to keep Pacquiao around for a few more years. They need to focus on Mayweather and ONLY Mayweather.
