Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Says He Saw Bradley as 'Most Exciting' Option

[aboutfkntime]

Neither fights were particularly exciting(Bradley 1 and 2). Watched them once live and that's it. Both Broner and Khan, though lesser fighters than Bradley, would have been more exciting and possibly would have been TKO'ed by Pacquiao. He hasn't gotten a stoppage since 2009 in the Cotto fight, and it looks like that streak will continue because I don't think he will stop Bradley.

I agree. And Broner could be the best ' fun fight '.

I think that people may disagree with me here, but it's not that bad a fight.

It is hard to think of Bradley as a poor opponent for anyone at welter.

He is a higher caliber opponent than Broner/Khan, the main issue is that we've seen it already, twice..... and like you said, both Broner and Khan would be fun opponents.

He should have selected Broner..... it would be a new opponent, possibly the best fight, and probably easier than Bradley/Khan.

I just saw the other thread where Hearn is complaining about not being able to nail down Khan for Kell Brook LMAO


Hearn admitted that he reached out to Arum to get some insight as to Khan's availability, and Arum told him that Khan had "less than 1% chance" of landing a Pacquiao fight LMFAO

It would be more exciting if Manny fought me. It would have more ppvs. Now imagine that im a noob training at campus's boxing gym after the class and somone tells me that Manny wants to fight me.

A Broner fight would have probably generated more buyers as well. People want to see Broner do the wobbly leg dance as many times as they can. And to see Pacquiao doing it to Broner, they'd enjoy it even more, since they can somehow link Mayweather to the whole thing

Also, Broner is too brave for his own good so he'd end up fighting Pacquiao instead of boxing. And that's where the fight would get fun.

this is worse than mayweather- berto.. only trilogy ever to end 3-0, pacquiao beat bradley twice, whole world knows that. the ppv numbers will prove how bad this decision was.

I don't get the fight when they had other options, but still think Pacquiao and Bradley will put on a great show.

Weren't you the poster that said he didn't watch any of the Gatti-Ward fights? I don't know if I trust your definition of exciting.

Bradley already gave Pac a gnarly cut from a head butt at the end of the 2nd fight.
I have a feeling that
1) Pac won't take training seriously bc he's older and bored by the game (esp this fight)
&
2) Bradley will come in headfirst early, and Pac will end up fighting through a bad cut the whole fight.

My gut says Pac wins another relatively boring UD.

But Pac losing this on the cards should not surprise anyone.

[Evan Fields]

Yeah OK good luck convincing anyone that something will happen in this fight that didnt happen in the first two.

Bradley is not exciting but dull and boring and short

Bradley is far from exciting and is really a dull short stubby limited boxer who was picked by Manny for an easy win. exciting what a hoot.
