    Would Pac-Bradley III really be justified?

    Some have spoken (logically and predictably) about the Pac win setting up a trilogy fight with Tim, if there aren't bigger fights out there for either man. However - would this really be justified? The general consensus is that Pac won clearly the first time, and now he's won again after being written off as much more faded, and very convincingly with the scorecards, against a generally viewed as improved Bradley.

    Would this fight make sense for a third instalment? In my opinion, no, but the W and L is what stands and officially its 1-1...and the Top Rank partnership means it wouldn't be hard to make, obviously...

    Why did you even start this thread,,, a third tim-manny fight should never be spoken of, or it may just happen


    Manny is clearly the better fighter

      No because Pacquaio by almost all accounts beat him twice and Bradley clearly does not have what it takes to beat him.

        I think Bradley can buy himself a 3rd fight by going off the notion that "Pacquiao isn't the same fighter, I could beat him this time."

        Give it a year, or two. Tim will be knocking on the door again, it's justified.

          Yes, but further down the road. There is no need for an immediate rematch. Bradley looked great but faded, maybe due to injury maybe not.

          Let Bradley beat someone like Rios, Vargas, Alvarado, etc. and look sensation and we will have a rematch on our hands.

            No need. Pacquiao already beat him twice.

            I got mad at Jim Lampley for mentioning a third fight.

                Well it's Top Rank so don't be surprised to see Pacquiao-Bradley IV in a few years.

                  Pacquiao has already beat two versions of Bradley, and avenged the illegitimate 'L'. What's left to prove there? Just because they each have 1 W on paper? Pfft.

                    No. Pacquiao beat him twice now. I highly doubt this ever happens. But with Arum....you never know.

                    Funny how Arum bashes Floyd for fighting guys like Ortiz, Guerrero, Maidana when they are legit fights against Top WW and/or title holders in their prime coming off good wins.....yet he's putting on rematch after rematch for Pac, and when it's not a rematch, it's a guy that's Rios or potentially Alvarado level.
