Decent scrap for the time being, especially because I am not sold on the idea that the Pac-Manny fight will 100% happen.

That's the way it is, not the way it ends
I agree he can.. but given that Manny is with Top Rank and Tim Bradley signed with Top Rank basically to fight Manny. I can count on him having an "off night" against Pacquiao.
We seen how Zahir Raheem was blackballed by top rank after beating Morales which ruined hype for a third Pacquiao fight but we'll see.
bradley seems to have flipped flop in opinion and personality since signing with Top Rank and saying all the "top rank stuff" since, so I don't know. If he shows up and truly tries to win it will be a good fight. But I don't like his flip flopping since signing Top Rank. before he signed with Top rank he said he wanted steroid testing in boxing, afterwards he doesn't support it. Before he signed with Top Rank he was a huge fan of Mayweather, since signing with Top Rank he "doesn't like" Mayweather.
Something tells me he was ALWAYS going to be Pacquiao's next fight ever since he signed with Top Rank. Idk but something tells me he isn't his own man anymore

That's a helluva conspiracy theory you're suggesting. If I follow your train of thought, you are implying that Bradley would throw the Pacquiao fight in order to maintain good relations with Top Rank?
That's a little far-fetched, my man. First, I guarantee there will be a rematch clause. So, even if Bradley won, Pacquiao would get a second crack at him. Second, if Bradley defeats Pacquiao, he gets a fight with the JMM/Peterson winner, which if JMM, would be another ppv and more money, and eventually he may get a fight with Mayweather if he beat JMM. If he loses against Pacquiao, he faces Khan? A guy who he didn't want to face before? Maybe Rios? I don't see it.
Yeah I don't give Bradley much hope. I think his style will suit Manny actually and make him look good. Not a bad opponent though. Could have done worse.
Then if Pacquiao beats Bradley it will be said that he cherry picked a smaller man that had no chance in winning. When it looks like quite a few people say Bradley can win this fight. That's boxing fans for you.![]()
