Comments Thread For: Bradley's Trainer Prefers Pacquiao Fight Over Marquez

[Rome-By-Ko]

No surprise here,after the way Marquez and his trainer disrespected Bradley and Diaz..Did not give any credit,and acted like a child in defeat,it was disappointing..I believe Diaz and Bradley loss a bit of respect for them and there is no reason for there to be a rematch..Sorry Marquez..

the only reason why khan might get a shot at floyd is because he will bring in uk and other overseas ppv buyers and that means dollars. theres a lot of other fighters that are deserving but like they say, "its all about the benjamins"

When was Khan ever this huge draw that everyone is making him out to be? Sure he has a british fanbase but NOTHING like what Hatton had and not even that fight cracked a Million with Floyd. Khan stock has only dropped as he started getting chin checked and dropped himself. Not to mention he struggled and was dropped against Julio Diaz in his last fight.

There is absolutely no way to justify this fight. Its a farce and that whole "uk fanbase" excuse is just that. An excuse.

Bradley is ONLY acceptable fight on that side of the fence. Anyone else is a joke. Maybe JMM but IMO he should retire or move down. He doesnt belong at 147

[hitking]

He fought JMM beautifully but if you watch closely he started getting a wee bit too comfortable when he was having success in the mid rounds...that's a problem I notice with bradley his attention span is utter shhh, it's like he gets bored and just gets too comfortable. Best option for him is to fight on that back foot, if he fights moving forward it's going to be a rough night for him and honestly I think this rematch would be personal for him and if you listen to in between rounds in the provodnikov fight he doesn't bode well at sticking to the game plan when he feels he needs to get even. Pacquaio is a dangerous fight for him, very dangerous if he can't keep his composure and doesn't stick to his game plan. I feel like him and Joel may be under estimating Pacquaio.

In his heart, Bradley likely feels that he lost the first fight even though he won't admit it publically. So I highly doubt he'll underestimate Pac.

We shall soon find out..I don't think Bradley boxes all twelve rounds and tries to silence the people that trashed him over the decision he got and that could potentially cost him. I've noticed that about Bradley when he gets tagged he abandons his game plan which fortunately hasn't caught up to him but almost did with Provodnikov.

This is true to an extent,if people would actually watch(and not listen to commentators)he did this very same thing in the fight with Pac..He fought Pac very tough,and gave Pac different looks..

I actually think the rematch will hurt Pac more then it will hurt Bradley,esp because of the Prov fight..Bradley got all that Macho crap out of his system..Pac is going to try to show Bradley no respect..That's going to coast him imo..Pac very safe imo in the first fight,the one time he got out of hand he got tag hard..I don't know how anyone can be looking forward to this fight..I know I'm looking forward to this fight,oh and the 24/7..

Pac thinks he has Bradley hurt..Now I scored this rd for Pac,but imo he lost the exchange and change his mind about being reckless with Bradley..

This fight was like this all night..Outside of the 4th 5th and 6th,and the 10th to 12th..I thought the rest were tough rds to score..

They may not have the drawing power of Pacquiao but they won't ask for what Pacquiao will ask for monetarily. So if Pacquiao wants the fight, that's what he has to do. And that's the real harsh reality.

Yeah well that's a double sided issue because Floyd ain't making what he could against Pacquaio by fighting those guys..so yeah in order to get some you may have to give some. That itself is a harsh reality...one more Guerrero type of fight numbers with $40 million guaranteed is going to have showtime looking real bad.

the only reason why khan might get a shot at floyd is because he will bring in uk and other overseas ppv buyers and that means dollars. theres a lot of other fighters that are deserving but like they say, "its all about the benjamins"

We shall see...I still think this fight does 1.2 million max but hey I could be wrong.

I agree with on on Devon. When Floyd announced him as an opponent on Twitter. I didn't really understand why folks had such a problem with that match-up.

As for Khan getting a shot. I have ZERO interest in that fight and won't be ordering it. Although I admit I'll probably hit up the theatre and catch it for under 20 bucks. I think right now, GBP is outta "sellable" opponents for Floyd at the moment and Khan is serving as nothing but the most sellable stay busy/tune-up they have available. And he's basically serving as a bridge to fill that May date while they build up Garcia or Broner for Sept. If I had to make a guess right now, I'd say itt will be Danny. They gonna let Broner marinate a lil more.

I won't be buying it that's for sure...i'll be all over the streams for this fight..hell there hasn't been a fight worth my dollars in a few years. Even a canelo bout couldn't entice me to buy ppv.

And when Pac-Bradley 2 is made, it will be the best possible option. Glad Team Bradley prefers it.

Don't agree bro..I believe Bradley felt he won that fight,he wants to prove it badly tho..I have no doubt Bradley believes he won,just look at both fighters faces when the bell sounded..Bradley clearly looked like he thought he won,while Pac put his head down and walked to his corner..

Now I believe Bradley wants the world to feel he won..I do agree however that Bradley will not underestimate Pac,I mean hiw could you..

There's no reason for Bradley-Marquez 2, anyway. There's an obvious reason on both sides for Pacquiao-Bradley 2.

Khan always had potential,he was never a big draw in the states..They moved Khan how they did cause of the potential he had,he just never lived up to it...
