Manny on points. A lot of us (me included) I think overreact to the pac-tards' massive exaggerations of Manny's greatness by underrating him to some extent. He is a better fighter than Bradley, even if he's slipping a bit.
I don't see Bradley getting stopped though.
Shza, just so we're on the same page, because I think you are objective and have constructive boxing discussions, unlike Pactards/Flomos etc., we agree Pacquiao is great, but he's not the second coming or anything. He's not top ten p4p all-time. He's not top 20 p4p. However, he is a special talent. Trainers say they're are only a few special talents in boxing every ten years, I believe Manny is one of them for the past decade.
As to Bradley as a challenger, he's being underrated a bit, in my estimation. Bradley isn't just an inside brawler, although that may be his most effective skill. He is a fighter that can make adjustments in real-time. He can also battle through adversity. Consider that Peterson, Holt, and Alexander, have gone on to win big fights after losing to Bradley. Peterson beat Khan, Holt lost to Diaz, but he won big on FNF recently, and he's looked competitive. Alexander just came off of the best win of his career over Maidana. I understand there are other variables, but Bradley has faced some good competition and won. He's no slouch. On the other hand, Pacquiao may have a little too much for him. I wouldn't count Bradley out though.
