Pacquiao vs Bradley Saturday night fight thread

:action: A fair undercard either, this is a fight a lot of us fans have been waiting to see, it's a test for Pacquiao, and who knows, Bradley could surprise us. In any event it should be a competitive and entertaining fight, well worth watching.

June 9
At Las Vegas (HBO PPV): Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley Jr., 12 rounds, for Pacquiao's WBO welterweight title; Jorge Arce vs. Jesus Rojas, 10 rounds, junior featherweights; Mike Jones vs. Randall Bailey, 12 rounds, for vacant IBF welterweight title; Guillermo Rigondeaux vs. Teon Kennedy, 12 rounds, for Rigondeaux's WBA junior featherweight title.

Bradley looks to be a credible well trained opponent for Pacquiao, he's undefeated, a champion, and has some nice wins over a few top dogs. I believe however, that Pac is on a different level, and nothing Bradley has trained for is going to prepare him for what he'll face in the ring Saturday night.
I see Tim making a fight of it in the early rounds, but Pacquiao taking over the fight in the mid rounds, with his speed, power, and experience. A UD for Pacquiao, with a possible late round TKO.

Cheers

In addition to the main event, I'm also interested in the Mike Jones vs. Randall Bailey fight. Bailey is a bit of a long shot, but you can never count him out with that monsterous right hand of his and he knows this is his last shot at a world title and future big paydays.

Yup, Rigondeaux vs. Teon Kennedy might not be a bad fight either, a good card, just not worth buying the PPV.. But i'll find a good stream. ;D

looking forward to the main event and Jones vs Bailey. Bailey has that big eraser.

As for Rigondeaux vs Kennedy-, he isn't that strong of an opponent for Rigo. Kennedy has a Loss and a Draw coming in. Not exactly the greatest sign.

Arce's fight seems like a mismatch. Rojas had a draw in his last fight against a journeyman who had lost 4 straight before fighting Rojas. Another bad sign.

Honestly for a PPV, how about Rigondeaux and Arce vs better fighters. If they had done that then I would be happy with this PPV.

After watching Mayweather vs Cotto in a theatre for 18 dollars, I'm not buying any more PPV at home (this ppv isn't in theatres) unless it is absolutely a must buy. This isn't. Stream hunting time it will be!!!

You've got a point about Rigondeaux and Arce vs better fighters, this being a PPV, seems like they could have scraped up better competition. That's reason 100 not to buy a PPV.
As for stream hunting, I just bought a new Desktop PC a few weeks back, with all the bells and whistles, so i'm thinking that it will help with the video quality and perhaps not lag as much. I'll find out Saturday.
Fucking computers are like women, can't live with 'um, can't live without 'um.

It should be shown as part of the PPV.

only 4 televised fights.

arce/rojas
rigo/kennedy
jones/bailey
pac/bradley

I wish they had better opponents for rigo and arce. AND MORE FIGHTS!!! How about 5 or 6 fights for a big PPV!

It's really a shit card imo, and they will probably charge 70 dollars for as well. The only fight that isn't a forgone conclusion in my mind is due to an old ass Bailey having a punchers chance. Thank god there's a bar playing it close to me, I'd never buy this one. Have people been watching the 24/7's for this as well? Freaking terrible.

I will tune in as usual and will be rooting for the underdog. I'm hoping for a decent headbutt or two.

I've been a fan of Tim Bradley for the longest, even after he dodged Khan. Now he's being rewarded with a Pacquiao fight. Odd in a way.

I like Bradley here to either (1) lose a controversial decision or (2) scrape by with a close win. I'll be rooting for him. War Desert Storm.

As opposed to the views expressed above, I like the Bailey vs. Jones fight. Jones knows he can't stink out another big event and hope to make top billing in the future. I expect him to engage. Rigo vs. Kennedy is a fight that should be a blow out for Rigo. I like seeing him box, so I'm excited for it too. The Arce fight doesn't do too much for me.

I hope Manny destroys Bradley, he writes checks with his mouth that his ass can't cash.

Would it matter to you if those headbutts will come from Pacquiao? ;)

I hope Bailey wins by KO just so it might spoil Bob's future plans of a Jones/Pacquiao fight....

Oh no, nevermind, that would make Bailey the perfect opponent for Pac in Bob's eyes.

Go Bailey !

This card begins @ 9:00 PM ET Saturday night or at around 1:00 AM in the UK. Despite Bradley doing his best to promote himself and this fight, he isn't all that thrilling to watch. Hopefully Pacquiao can turn this into something special, because I fully expect Bradley to turn this into a defensive/tactical stinker.

Good card. Hope we get some good fights out of it.

Headbutt, pac wins on cards. The floyd pac fight aint ever happening but top rank is sure gonna make sure the silly dream keeps getting dangled over everyone's head.

Bumping this fight thread up, i'm surprised there not more interest in this fight tonight, it's one of the biggest fights of the year and figures to have some drama or controversy.
:scratchchin: :rasta::bag::beerchug:

Just saw the weigh in, and Bradley looks like a BEAST! Pac looks less muscular than before.

Where is the poll?
Please do not create official fight threads without a poll.
I think Bradley wins, he is motivated and backs it up with crazy amount of work.

Just ordered primetime, can't wait for tonight, currently watching the euros waiting for the fight to start. I think Tonight is going to be a good one, pacquiao is going to have to be at his best to beat Bradley, Bradley is up for this and I hope or his sake he goes for it as promised because he's clearly trying to get under Pacquiaos skin. Will it work though?? I don't know but I think a faded manny of present might make this a close fight that's why I picked a Pacquiao UD. But I am hoping Pacquiao comes all guns a blazing and tests Bradley power, I think we will see some good exchanges of punching tonight and it will be interesting to see how Bradley reacts to Pacquiaos power and speed, if Bradley can compete than I think he will push Pacquiao to the limits. Bradley is a good fighter and that's why this is a tough fight to call. I'm very excited now

Here we go Denver here we go !

I am the ultimate little league trash talking Father !

I am.....

Bradley is such a dip-shit, Pacquiao was basically laughing @ him.

Manny out flexed, big deal it isnt a body building comp.
Speed will win it.

Bradley won't be so fucking tough acting after he finds himself on the seat of his pants.

Do me a favor @Andre and sticky this thread.

Thanks in advance.

I mean it's good that Bradley is so hungry and focused but does he have to keep reminding us just how hungry and focused he is? :rolleyes:

It makes me think he's trying to convince himself or that he's nervous and unsure of himself.

I'd really hate to see this clown win tonight, he'd do anything to win, watch for headbutts.

Can anyone hook me up with a link ?

Just did something I've not done in 3 yrs...layed down $ to see this entire card :-X. I want it on a huge flate screen bouncing off the wall and take a break from the blurry-lag streams...hope the neighbors like the speakers ;D

Bradley's speed is slept on. Bottom line though is he's alwaysssss plays the power game and his heart out paces his boxing mind. I think he has the ability and hands to give Pac a shit load of problems, but he'll go macho when he gets cracked. Time for booze

Guide said 6:00 - 1:00 but no action yet ???

I believe the card starts in about 20 minutes.

Would anyone be so kind as to provide a link?

I've got a feeling this fight is going to be closer than a lot of people think.

Bradley is going to get dropped fairly early I believe. Huge welterweights have slept on Manny's power and found out the hard way. Bradley is not a welterweight desptie his one good showing there against Abregu. I think Pac man's power will have a very strong effect on Bradley. Determination and desire do not make one invulnerable to straight left hands or right hooks.

Fight link?... What's that?

Just buy the fight. You cheap bastards. ;D

Here we go 1st up - Guillermo Rigondeaux vs. Teon Kennedy, 12 rounds, for Rigondeaux's WBA junior featherweight title.

Kennedy down in the 1st round, but survives.
