    Overall, I think that it was good performance by Pac. One thing I noticed is that he is taking less risks and chances in the ring than we are normally accustomed to seeing of him.

    In addition, I've noticed that he is throwing a lot less and moving his feet a lot more. Nowadays it seems that he is more interested in not getting hit as he avoids most exchanges and trades fewer punches than usual too.

      honestly bro discussion on the fight is going south with the voodoo obsession, we could talk where Tim and Pac should go from here, whether a rematch is plausible?

      myself an immediate rematch is not in the best interest of both parties but I am not totalling closing that route, Tim has to make a comeback first and Pac should keep winning

        I think Bradley should fight Rios or Prov or Vargas..I think Pac should fight the winner of Marquez Alvarado..I have no hope in Pac vs Mayweather ever getting made..

        I would like to see a rematch,weather people agree or not Pac and Bradley are 1-1,and I for one like the match up..

          Pac fought how he did by choice,not because of anything Marquez did in the ring..The same with Bradley,he came to the dance with that mentality..Nobody is taking anything away from Pac or Marquez by stating the obvious..Which is Pac and Bradley came to the ring with an aggressive style(and something to prove),which was funny cause they both had won the previous fights..They had something to prove to their self's,and the world..It's different then Marquez showing Pac something in the ring that is going to make him alter what he is doing..The same with Bradley,nothing Pac did in the ring that made Bradley fight like this..Again it's not a knock on Pac,the same as it's not a knock on Marquez..

            Though post Pac if he could toggle between Warrior Bradley and Pitter Pat Bradley he could do well and be fan pleasing. The issue will be knowing when, and for how long, to go Warrior Bradley.

              those are good match ups for Tim, probably Rios is the best choice, I want Tim to come back on Top again before a 3rd match up with Manny, the second fight was a good fight, a lot better than the first in terms of action, drama and content...

              as a Pac Fan I still want to see a Marquez revenge fight, Marquez-Alvarado winner is good opponent choice, and I am still hoping for a Mayweather fight...

              for me these could cover last 3-4 fights of Manny, we just have to wait if they are really planning to go down to 140...

                Bro their is a BIG difference, Pac has always been an aggressive fighter, he usually beat down his opponents and he always fought Marquez the same way just varying in intensity but he made a crucial mistake concentrating on the offense too much as he was winning the fight and could probably smell the stoppage a round or 2 that cost him to be KTFO in the last seconds ....

                Bradley on the other hand is not known to be overly aggressive, is not known to KTFO his opponents but I agree Tim made this choice and should have continued to fight the same way but along the way he was forced to make the change if he did not he would probably be the one to get KTFO...

                  He hurt his leg so he tried to lure Pac in, letting him do all the legwork so to speak in hopes of landing a KO punch. It didn't happen but at least Tim can go into his next fight without that weight of the first Pac fight on his shoulders anymore.

                  Most of the guys out there are not as fast as Tim nor do they have the reflexes that he does so Pac will be able to dominate and beat up virtually all the potential opposition currently available.

                    Bradley also got rocked a few times and had no choice but to change his tactics along the way. He tried a few tactics and sometimes they worked and sometimes it didn't. Manny took advantage when it didn't work out for Bradley.

                    It was a tough fight for both ..... but Manny eventually took over.

                      it is respectable for both fighters to say that it was a tough fight and I am sure it was in no way easy for both, we should give props to manny and tim for providing us a good action fight...
