Pacquiao Vs Bradley

[#1FightFan]

If all these fights are true then Khan will be in limbo land.

Someone on this or another thread threw up the idea of Kahn/Rios at 140, which I think would be a great fight. Less consequential but more exciting than a Bradley fight and at least even with a Peterson rematch. (I do think it's BS that Peterson isn't giving Kahn a rematch, as much as I detested Kahn's post-fight conduct.)

Khan deserves a rematch but I don't feel sorry for Khan given that he wouldn't give Prescott a rematch. Peterson is angling for bigger fish to fry just like Khan did.

WELL SAID!! with Maidana too! it sucks, don't it Khan Ha ha. KARMA!!!

This fight WILL be a one sided blowout, and eventually Bradley will be DQed for headbutts.

I will be absolutely shocked if Bradley wins more than two rounds.

I respectfully 100% disagree. I need to analyze it a little bit more, but upon first glance, I like Bradley as the underdog in this fight. He has more of a chance than Cotto...

Cotto has different gears and a devastating left hook to the body and size, what does Bradley have? A high volume breaststroke, sure he has heart and a great work rate, but let's not make it something he's not.

People are really counting Bradley out. He's a good fighter and Pac just got humbled by an old nemesis who has no right to fight at WW. Pac is finally facing someone younger, unbeaten and who will put up a show.

I can see a Bradley really making it ugly and so he should against Manny. It won't be easy for Manny at all.

JMM is one of the smartest counter punchers in the history of the sport, even at his age. There is no basis to compare his success against Pac with Bradley's ability.

You guys are crazy, Prescott keeps losing so why would Khan fight him, Maidana needs to earn it and is happy where he is, Peterson should remember he was given a opportunity which now wants to run away and hide behind Arum and Top Rank. Khan should tell them all to screw themselves and continue what he wants to do, as they will come crawling back after they lose their fights and beg Khan for rematches.

I'm looking forward to Pacquiao - Bradley, I imagine it will be for Pac's WBO welterweight strap, but both pugs will likely weigh less than 147 @ the weigh-in. Pac will probably score a KD or 2, and win a clear cut UD. I don't however see Bradley getting knocked out because he'll have his track shoes on.

[Pavlik]

I worry about PAC getting cut or not getting off his shots because Bradley's too close and smothers PAC with his own shots on the inside. This fight worries me a bit.

Disagree think Bradley is a blown up light welter, who is a very good fighter but not as dangerous as Cotto. Floyd is going up in weight, Cotto has looked impressive in his victories and he is very experienced. If he sticks to a game plan, he has the speed, punch and versatility to cause Floyd more problems than Bradley would do against Pacquiau.

Bradley has won all his fights easily. He is awkward and fast. Could smother Pac and will probably not slow down that much throughout the fight. Cotto has good skills but that is what he uses, his boxing skills.
Which in comparison to Mayweathers skills they are amateurish.

Cant see Pacquiao losing this fight but i said that about Marquez but should be a really intresting fight cant wait for this one Bradley im sure will ask a few questions,he is one very awkward customer.But still i think Pac Man will have too much for him

What is Pacquiao then? They're the same size. Pacquiao and Bradley will come in at almost the exact same weight without any hydration issues. Size isn't an issue here.

Bradley is in his prime. He's undefeated and he's fast. Cotto is passed his prime, he's been knocked out twice, and he's not very fast anymore. Cotto isnt the Cotto from 2007. It's unfortunate, but he's not. Why do you think he hasn't been matched with any other top 5 junior middleweight? He's got a punchers chance here at most. His style has also changed from a puncher-boxer to a boxer-puncher. He hasn't fought like 2007 Cotto in a while. That works against Margarito, but against Mayweather?

There are many ways for Bradley to win this fight. Maul for the first few rounds. Box for the next few. Move for the last few. Pacquiao hasn't stopped anyone since 2009 despite what his accusers say. It's possible he has he lost a step. In addition, Bradley has got some beast in him. Pacquiao should be favored, but Bradley is a live dog here.

Your attempts at feigning impartiality make me laugh. I chuckle more about it when you accuse me of being biased and you just made this post.

You are not seriously trying to convince yourself that this is a better and tougher fight than Floyd vs Cotto will be at 154 are you? Anybody else who's not on Manny's payroll feel the same way, out of curiosity??

That don't worry me at all. Fuck no! Lol. Pac has been smothered/mauled by come-forward fighters [bigger than Bradley] before.

lf Bradley choose to slug it out with Pacquiao like most of you here think, then chances are we will see a ko win for Pac.

l don't see that happening in early rounds though. Not even in mid rounds. Well that depends. The early they test each other's power, the earlier we'll see shootout.
