I get what everyone is saying about Tim's wide punches. It might at some point get him in some trouble. But what know one is talking about is the way Manny sometimes reach throwing his punches and get off balance. His last few opponents didn't make him pay. Well, Marquez did but just not enough. People who really don't know much about Bradley thinks he is this straight ahead brawler. That is simply not the case. This kid can box and has above average technical skills. Lets be honest, Manny, at times, can look very sloppy. He is very unorthodox. He gets away with it because he is such an extraodinary athlete. I can't think of any of his recent opponents that were more athletic. Now, he's fighting a guy were that will not be an advantage for him because Tim is a hell of an athlete as well. He has excellent footwork.
I just can't see how Manny is going to beat this guy. Pac fans that don't really follow the sport all think that Manny is going to run through this guy. Its not going to happen. True fans of the sport see it differently. If you think about it, Manny has faced the weaker competition in the last few years. He struggled against 2 older fighters in Mosley and Marquez. Bradley has fought some tough skilled guys in their prime. He's beaten Abregu, Alexander, and Peterson who were all in their prime and undefeated at the time. Win or lose, this will be Manny's toughest fight. He's going to get battered and bloodied, and roughed up. Win or lose, at the end of this fight, everyone will know who Timothy Bradley is.

Don't read into a media day too much. If you do, you kind of have to laugh at Bradley talking about Marquez "just stepping back" to avoid punches. Brilliant stuff.
We will only really know how things will go when we see it go down. Bradley can look as amped and ripped and confident as he wants to in camp, and so can Pacquiao. Doesn't matter. How they react to each other when they're actually across from each other is what matters.

Originally posted by Dat View PostBradley will lose because Pacquiao is the better, faster boxer between the two. Nothing much to lose anyway, Bradley can just go back to Light Welter after that.
Bradley can say he lost to the one of the best of this era, go back to LWW make big fights with a Khan or Alexander again to rebuild his name. By then Pac will prob be retire and Maybe even Floyd so TB can move back up to WW and make name for himself there..
I mean it is prize fighting and fighting Pac WIN or LOSE is always a Win considering the payday..

And even if he loses to Pacquiao, Bradley is still the WBO Light Welter champ-- and should he lose, I think going back to Light Welter vs the winner of Khan-Garcia or even Maidana is a good plan B. It's a win-win situation.

Originally posted by Reloaded View PostTim was NOT chosen to win , he was chosen to showcase Manny because Manny has looked ordinary in his last few fights , another average showing by Pac and his profile is sinking like the Titanic , Bradley is small;er not a lot of power and punches wide , and is owned by Arum ,,, Tim is not winning .
But bradley will come back a better fighter once he lost to Pac. I think this is the equivalent of Pac losing to Morales, but Pac losing to morales was more an off night for Pac.Last edited by hugh grant; 06-02-2012, 05:30 AM.
