I wrote it before in another thread but this fight is worthless. I honestly have zero interest in it. If Bradley wins it does him no good because it proves that pac is done. If pac wins, then it shows he is still decent but that Bradley hasn't really improved. It won't be exciting either. Pac should fight somebody that he hasn't fought.
Similar to Floyd fighting Berto, I think this is a garbage fight, although I do feel like Bradley is a tougher/more credible opponent. Neither of the previous two fights were classics/overly entertaining to me, and I feel like Manny dominated both (even though he was robbed in the first fight). All of that being said, if they put the fight on HBO I will definitely watch it and gain additional respect for Manny and Arum for giving back to the fans instead of chasing the all mighty dollar.
Arum's way of trying to make lemonade with 2 lemons. Keep the money in house. Manny loses and arum pushes bradley. Manny wins and arum points to mannys shoulder and says the floyd fight was a fluke and he wants a rematch.
Roach wanted Khan, I believe that would have been the right choice. Manny beating someone floyd didn't (khan and his following claims "wouldn't) would be the best way for manny to go out on a high and get one up on Floyd.
Arum wanted bradley, (because if manny beat crawford, arums got nothing left after manny retires).
Roach wanted Khan.
Manny wanted Marquez, Floyd, khan, Garcia, Provo, etc.
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

Manny has nothing to prove. He's fought all around the world. Beat gayweather all all the other top boxers.

Which injury...?
You mean his bruised ego and public humiliation!
Someone should do something about the criminal relationship between the WBO and Top Rank. I'm sick of seeing year after year champions be stripped so a Top Rank fighter can go after a vacant belt against a bum. Championships are so fraudulent.
Pointless fight as Pacman beat him twice already. Although the Atlas vs Roach angle could be interesting build up to the fight.
Manny Pacquiao is fighting this week and no mention of it.
How times are changing.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I just don't see the point in it. They don't need a decider, because everyone knows Bradley didn't win the first fight. Just a waste of time fight. Routine Pacquiao points victory. Only interesting element to it is, if Bradley wins, does it diminish Mayweather's achievement by beating Pacquiao?
And if that happens, i hope to god there isn't a 4th fight![]()

I'll start by saying I'm probably biased because Bradley is probably my favourite fighter out there at the moment. But I have to say I'm surprised at how dismissive people in general are about Bradley.
In the 1st fight, Pac probably shaded it, but there wasn't a lot in it, and Bradley finished with a couple of broken ankles somehow. I don't think it was the stonewall robbery people make it out to be. Bear in mind , Pac was seen in some quarters at the time as better than Floyd () so it wasn't a bad performance by Bradley.
After that Pac got KO'd by Marquez, while Bradley Schooled him. I'm expecting Bradley to win tonight, I reckon Pac has been finished for some time.
What a finish by Valdez.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
