Pacquiao Bradley 3

[walrus]

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

I'm not sure what you're trying to say here.

this is disappointing

I watched a bit of many Floyd again the other day and many really did try and make a fight of it and Floyd ran more than usual

[Ron Swanson]

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.

How is it giving back if it's a fight nobody wants? PPV, HBO, free TV, it doesn't matter if it is a "garbage fight"

Fighting on HBO means it won't cost fans money to watch the fight (assuming they already have HBO, of course), and that Manny will make much less than he would on PPV. While I'm not really interested in this fight, Bradley is a solid/dangerous opponent, even at this point of his career. Manny has fought the toughest competition of anyone since Oscar, so I'm good with his last fight not being a killer like Crawford, especially if they keep the fight off of PPV. If the fight is on PPV, however, I won't waste a dime on it and I predict it does as bad or worse than Floyd-Berto did, even though Bradley is the much better/more dangerous fighter.

This is a nothing fight but I think Bradley could beat Pac this time. Pac looks done and should retire. Obviously losing to Floyd doesn't make you done but he was poor in that fight, with the "injuries" and long layoff.

Bradley looked better than ever last time out, albeit against a really poor Rios. Whether or not Teddy's influence was overrated I'd like to see them have another go together.

At his age, I don't think Pac could fully recover from his injuries and regain his old form. Imo it's better for him to retire before he embarrasses himself. But who knows...

Pac injured or not injured beats everyone at 147 excluding floyd and marquez.

Bradley is in for another big payday so he is in a great place.

Which injury...?
You mean his bruised ego and public humiliation!

Floyd has been running all his life and guess what..freddie roach calls him the best of this era.

Go figure

Exactly.

Its all part of history now anyway.

Pac will never have the chance to avenge his loss to floyd and all the hype has been resolved..its very satisfying.

Floyd put on a B class performance and we still have not seen the best of floyd..we never will.

Roll on 2016 and 50-0

Pointless fight as Pacman beat him twice already. Although the Atlas vs Roach angle could be interesting build up to the fight.

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.

Frank Warren did the same thing over here with Eubanks et al claiming to be world champions.

[Gandalf]

Excuse my language, but this is an appallingly shit matchup to be making. What's the point? Arum you are nearly as old as the Queen, it is time for you rotters to die.
