    Yes

    Timmeh doesn't have the serpentine motion down.

    There was an instance in which Floyd changed levels downwards to draw a str8 left out of manny. Then Floyd sprung up and countered.

      Yeah Bradley just isn't on that level. It made me appreciate the 3 true greats on this era. Mayweather, Marquez and Pacquiao.

        I watched it in reverse and Bumley was doing some elite level jiu jitsu on Pacquaio.

          To make matters worse his punches are wide.

          He threw tons but was highly inaccurate.

          In their first fight he didn't have this accuracy issue.
          I agree, a lot of weak and inaccurate punches from Bradley. To boot, he even fought a very conservative fight, thanks to Atlas, which made it even worse. Bradley has always had success throwing combos to the body and head, it looked like he was trying to counter and throw straight pot shots which just wasn't doing anything besides occasionally landing with not much pop on them. Still couldn't neutralize Mannys left at all amd that exaggerated motion he does makes those shots look even worse when they connect on him

              Then he walked around the ring, slipped his dressing gown back on and ran backwards out of the arena.
