    I dont understand how this isnt a compelling fight...especially since Bradley is probably going to win.

    There isnt a clear, dominating favorite

      I bring up Floyd cause I know ya like Floyd..Not trying to say your opinion is somewhat swayed cause of Floyd..Just to give an example of how an injury within a fight can really hurt what a fighter can do..To not see that is to be a bit blind imo..

      I believe both these fighters deserve another fight with each other..For a ton of reasons tbh..
      Rome I would think when discussing this fight the "judges scoring" would not be something I would use to support my arguement. lol. I mean one of the judges who scored this fight for tim also thought floyd canelo was a draw!

      I'm cool with this. My preference is to see Manny v Ruslan.

      To be clear, I haven't said this is a **** fight or anything like that. This is in no way a floyd v khan bull**** fight.

      If I am wrong about the ankle I will accept that. The fight IMO will play out the same way only CJ ross and Duane Ford aren't judging so I don't expect the same BS.

        But Im down for this fight.
        Only person who can arguably be ranked higher in the division than Bradley would be Floyd. I'll even go as far as to say Bradley has fought two top 5 guys in the division during that time frame (2 years)..remember Marquez got a huge division bump for ko'ing pacquaio so there is an argument to made for that #1 spot only because of Floyd's two ventures into 154 during that period. I'm no real Bradley fan and feel he should've lost the first fight but i'm not beyond giving the man credit for what he's done.

          Stream this

          I will definitely stream this fight,unless the undercard is great. Canelo PPV will buy because all action fights. Mayweather PPV lets see what the undercard looks like.

            I think Manny would beat Provodnikov 12-0, so to me this is the best fight to be made in TR's stable at 147. Yes it's Arum recycling again but no one expected anything different. Would be great to see either against Floyd, Danny Garcia, Maidana etc. but Pac and Bradley are among the best at the weight so a fight between them is worth seeing.

              the ONLY appeal for this fight is how badly Tim wants to prove himself. Pac is more cautious now so forget about him being an 'animal' in this fight. On the other hand, Bradley beating Prov(pac's sparring partner) and Marquez(Pac's kryptonite) only boosts Tim's confidence against Pac. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he KO's Pac or atleast drop him - Pac's chin still needs to be checked.

              I saw the first fight in a sportsbar during my vacation in punta cana, and the SHOCK in people's faces in that bar after the decision was unforgettable, lol.

                Why not when I agree with their cards??I mean the judge who scored it for Pac is the same judge that score Rios Abril for Rios..What's ya point??

                At the end of the day it's all a matter of opinion..I really don't care to see Pac vs Prov..The fight makes no sense tbh..Bradley Pac has history and tbh unfinished business..Pac vs Prov while it sounds good on paper just does not make any sense..

                  There's no reason Pac v Bradley and Pac v Provo cant both be made. Man you guys will argue about the color of grass

                    I think judges scoing was the whole issue with this fight. I did follow it with lol so i was making a joke.

                    If you think Manny v tim has unfinished business, so be it. Had Manny been announced as the winner IMO there is no way there would be a rematch. Do you think there would be?

                    As such, we'd most likely be looking at a Manny v Ruslan fight given what has happened.

                    I get that Manny v tim gives manny a chance to get his title back and is match between 2 of the 10 best p4p fighters in the world. But so would floyd v JMM and ward v froch-2 other fights that we really don't need to see again IMO.

                      A pointless rematch in which he first fight was already resolved but was ruined by some pathetic judging...

                      Obviously Pac wins this one and we get fed a 3rd match considering they both would be tied..

                      Damn Arum and his garbage fights..
