Pacquiao Bradley 3

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

It's a horrible matchup seeing as Pac won easily last time. Bradley might well win this but that is because Manny is injured, old and inactive.You shouldnt have a rematch after a fairly decisive win. It is an Arum Shylock move.

IMHO it was a clear win once Bradley started to loose his mind. Before that, he was showing pretty good form.

I'm interested to see if he can hold his nerve for at least 7 rounds this time.

Even if he does it just means Manny is old and better off retired.

I am ok with this also. May not be a great swan song for Manny though cause I think there is a good chance he loses. I question what the guy has left as a fighter.

He probably already is.

I bet this is PPV just like Floyd v Berto.

If Bradley wins do fights with the Thurman/ Porter winner, Brook or Khan get made? Or does Bradley look towards money fights at 154 with Cotto or Canelo?

First let me say that I believe Tim Bradley will fight any fighter at or around his weight. That being said, Bradley is one of the few top fighters who, in my opinion, really do let their promoter/manager pick their upcoming/next fights. With those facts in mind, I don't see a chance that Bradley fights at 154, or takes an immediate big fight with Brooks, Porter, or Khan. Boxing is a business, and if he wins the Manny fight, his handlers will take a couple of easier opponents while they build up a big money fight further down the line.

Not interested in this... at all...

This idea that easy fights build future fights is so faulty that it's hard to even understand where people get the notion.

Yes easy fights maximize earnings because fighters get more fights before losses pile up. But they do nothing to build anything. Think of Danny Garcia after the Matthysse fight, he was a name and had momentum. A few fights later and he's just another guy. Even as he has expanded his resume by gaining another championship in another division he is less of a name and has less appeal.

Big fight after big fight makes future fights bigger. Manny became a star by fighting the Morales', Berrera, Marquez types. Floyd became a star by years of fighting champions. Big fights build the future.

Look at GGG, he's the talk of the sport but he hasn't had big fights so his PPV debut did like 100k in sales.

Frankly any debate that easy fights build fights has no basis in reality.

I'm somewhat interested knowing Bradley imo had a series injury yet fought through it.
Weaker injuries have been Loudly claimed yet Bradley didn't speak much on his.

[powerpuncher]

I still have no interest in this fight. I realized yesterday that this fight was a week away

[Primo Carnera]

I actually like the fight. Anytime Bradley fights , it's worth watching , and every time he fights , he's written off as finished. I do hope Bradley wins, and after that I'm not sure who he'll fight. But one thing I do know is that he will fight anyone, unlike the other so-called top WW's.
Dunno about anyone else's opinion of Him, but I'm amazed at how far Pac has gone down in my estimation as a person. I never had him down as an excuse making bullshitter until the last 2 years or so.
