Comments Thread For: Roach: Once Bradley Gets Hit, He'll Revert To Old Self

[umop-ap!sdn]

It seems that old habits die young as the same demons that stunted Roach's growth as a boxer are coming back to haunt his fighters. That being his poor judgement. Roach is too pridefull and thinks with his pride. When he was a fighter he would not follow game plans and would revert back to his brawling ways once he got tagged in a fight. This mentality is instilled into Manny as fights he could have won by staying smart (Marquez pt 4) he got gung-ho in after being hit a few times and it led to his now infamous nap. Roach should have had Manny break Marquez down, not send him in for Blood and the KO, against one of the best Counter-punchers the sport has seen. Roach is a good offensive coach, horrible for defence and horrible with making and sticking to a core gameplan... just like when he was a fighter.

Bradley in this fight will get his face busted up badly , this is for sure. He ll be bloodied by round 4-5 and if that happens the knockout will come and Bradley out by 7-8

Like i said before,i hope to not see the old TIM "HEADBUTTS" BRADLEY because he is fighting a ooffensive southpaw focused on aggressivness!!!

The only change in Bradley is in the mind of Bradley. Otherwise he will fight the same.

I'm a Bradley fan but he will taste the canvas in this fight. I hope he will be able to recover and fight once he goes down. He sure aint winning the fight though.

Freddie Roach has turned into boxing's version of Ace Ventura. He turns around and flat out starts talking out of his A55. "we're gonna do what Mayweather didn't do...knock Mosley out". Fail! We're gonna knock this guy out, we're gonna knock that guy out. We're gonna knock Floyd Mayweather out too.

lol yea it has gotten old I don't even pay him any mind in the build ups. he could be right about this one but I think Bradley will fight very smart and try to avoid getting hit as much as he did the first time

as soon as field marshall pitty pat gets hit he's gonna run thats how he injured his feet in the first fight running he ran like a coyote backwards !

Freddie is right manny is going to have to be aggressive to win this fight here actually that is his game plan it's just unfortunate he got caught by Marquez but truth be told we knew that was coming but in this fight with Bradley manny don't have to worry about bein caught by Bradley cause he don't have any real power anyway with only 12 ko's and I think he felt Bradley's hardest shots anyway I see manny winning this fight big Bradley will be forced to brawl cause manny will attack him unlike Marquez who waits on his opponents mistakes I see a huge u.d. For manny here.

Right... it's just unfortunate he got caught twice by a 40 year old lightweight guy.

Pac floored Mosley and then Shane fought a scary fight from that point on. Shane was ready to quit. He was complaining to Nasim about his foot but Richardson wasn't having it. He engaged Floyd way more in their fight then he did against Pac. People will say what they want, that Shane was worse off at that point than he was a year prior facing Floyd (whom a ton of people thought would give Floyd a run for his money).
Shane will tell you what's up. He thinks both have fast hands but he gives the defensive edge to Floyd. He said Floyd is hard to hit clean and that his counters are really accurate. He also said he has deceptive power, but He said Manny had power in both hands, and that his shots came from angles he did not see. He said Manny's power surprised him.
