Can Manny survive a war with Bradley?

[LoadedWraps]

Tim said if you can't beat em, join em. He has a special surprise for Pac this time around, since no one cares about legit testing, he is preparing to come into the ring in beast mode, chock full of power pellets. The power that was never there will be there in abundance this time.

Good post.

Manny should have agreed to the real testing. I heard Tim talked to some "insiders of the supplement world" and is on his own variety or special shakes now. This is why he has been so vocal and confident. This is also why there has been no footage of him preparing for this fight....he is punishing opponents so badly in sparring, they don't want Manny to know what he is about to walk into. Splitting heavy bags, KO'g sparring mates....it's not looking good for Manny.

but did he popped the speed bag tho?? if not then manny doesnt have nothing to worry about.

Bradley is gonna beat Pac......UD. but they'll give it to pac via robbery.

what goes around comes around?

Where did TB get this new "power"?

It doesnt work that way.

Manny can survive a "war" because TB doesnt have punching power.

Yes, but I don't expect it this time. I anticipate a very focused, serious and determined Manny Pacquiao with a tempered aggression. We can expect a much higher work rate but nowhere near as close as the reckless and careless Manny we witnessed in the fourth JMM fight. I believe that KO loss has left an indelible mark on his thinking that will remain with him for the rest of his career. Therefore, one can anticipate Bradley to settle down and exchange and trade punches more because of a perceived gun shyness from Manny.

its funny when people say pac was so wreckless and careless in the 4th fight with marquez LOL. pac fought a great fight until the end of 6.

pitty pat jabs count as a war??????

Bradley will throw sledgehammers as he sits down on his punches and stands his ground.

if bradley goes to war, Tim wont last the distance, his chance to win, just like what JMM said, if he use his skills and move...

IMHO all out war is suicide for Tim!

Bradley wasn't the same for a month after the Provodnikov fight, if the ref counted the first KD Bradley would have lost. Pacquaio gives Provodnikov shiners when they spar, a war would be the last thing on Joel and Bradley's mind.

There's more pressure on Bradley for this fight, Pacquiao's already a big name and we got to see how Bradley would react to more pressure in his last fight. He got the best of the exchanges against Marquez, but Pacquiao is much quicker and lighter on his feet. Getting in an exchange with a guy who's faster and hits harder than you is usually something you want to avoid in a fight.

In conclusion, yes. Bradley has proved he can survive a war in the Provodnikov fight and he's already taken hard punches from Pacquiao without going down.

if some of these Bradley fans were Bradley's cornermen, Bradley would be getting KTFO quick.
