Tim Bradley - one thing to take from last weekend

[InTheNeutralCorner]

Nah I think something fishy was going on in this fight, I'm sure pacquiao could have had him out of there in the 4th , he was too quick for Bradley , he let him get back into the fight for sure. Bradley couldn't take Pacquiaos speed, and you could clearly tell he was out of his comforte Zone when Pac picked up the pace.

Khan would batter Bradley IMO, he would be too quick for him, going off that peformance I don't rate Bradley at all anymore.

I don't think there is anything fishy with Pacquiao's performance. It's more of him being complacent. After the Marquez fight, he seems to be confident that close fights will be scored in his favor. And he is not as fierce as he was before, the hunger is gone.

In his fight with Bradley, he sensed (just like most of us) that he is way ahead in the score cards hence he appeared to have just coasted along during the later rounds. BAD MOVE! Maybe that loss will bring back that ferocity. Or maybe he is on such a decline that no amount of motivation will bring back his previous self.

He badly hurt him in the 4th I just don't know why he didn't knock him out and he just let Bradley win the 5th round , it was as If he just let him back in the fight IMO. When pacquiao was using his handspeed and quick footwork Bradley had no chance whatsoever he was getting schooled, I just thought it was strange how Pac slowed down, it really was as if he let Bradley get back into the fight.

That's just my opinion anyway, I thought it was a strange fight. PAC needs to just rematch him and stop him, he's more than capable IMO.

I think Pacquiao is now a pastor or something. This may have affected the way he inflicts injury on his opponent. Since Bradley does not appear to be hurting him, he did not see the urgency or need to finish Bradley off. If this is the case, then he does not belong in boxing anymore.

It's a strange one. I said on other threads that I thought it was a close fight going in and Bradley was more than capable of winning. He got the decision but I don't think he deserved it, so although he won I expected him to perform better than he did. I expected him to be more fearless and relentless and throw a lot more but can't really blame him for being wary after feeling Pacs power.

Honestly, the only thing that surprised me is that he didn't get knocked down.
Besides the decision of course.
