Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley II on April 12

[walrus]

This is going to be great. I don't know why people aren't excited about this. Bradley's style can be boring and the only reason he is undefeated is he's got a few gifts but he is game. Always comes in ready to fight and in incredible shape. I'm a bit of a Pactard but this fight will not be a blow out. I think Manny will win but I say so with hesitation. Hopefully HBO puts together a good undercard. I may actually pay for this one.

I guess the reason why I find him boring is because of his sloppy punching technique.. Not only is he an arm puncher but it's as if he punches with his hands half way open ..

Bradley is not a pleasant fighter to watch in my eyes..

If he's such an exciting champion, how come he can't put asses in the seats?? How come the people in his small hometown of Palm Springs dont know who he is?

I go to Palm Springs often to gamble and hang out at the sports bar alot and nobody knows who he is..

I feel you brother. It seems all boxers are relatively unknown. Manny and Floyd are two of the best athletes in the world (IMO) however they are generally unknown to most people I know. A few people I talked to have heard of Floyd but think he is the heavyweight champ. Boxing has definitely fallen out f favor with the general public. It is a shame as there are some great fighters around right now. It's a shame boxing is so corrupt. Who the he'll wants to bet on boxing in its current state of affair. How many times have we seen the loser win.
