Pacquiao v Bradley

Pacquiao v Bradley

Postby shaun » Wed Apr 25, 2012 3:25 pm

Manny Pacquiao will fight Timothy Bradley at the MGM Grand on June 9. Pacquiao is defending his WBO welterweight title, a belt he doesn't deserve to hold after the robbery against Marquez. Pacquiao has not been convincing in his most recent fights against Marquez and Mosley - do you think Bradley can cause an upset?

I don't think Bradley can compete with Pacuiao. I think Bradley will more than likely loose a decision.

Manny Pacquiao is obviously the clear favourite, but this could be a dangerous fight for Pacquiao. Bradley is the naturally bigger man, and he hits hard. I am expecting Pacquiao to win the fight but he will need to improve on his past two fights.

I don't think Bradley has a chance to win, Pacquiao's style perfectly fits on sluggers and slower fighters and Bradley will definitely have a punishment on this one. TKO, KO or unanimous all for Pacquiao!

I don't think he fits his style perfectly, Bradley is not a crude slugger. Bradley will try to close the gap and give Pacquiao less room to throw power punches, which could make it a scrappy fight. Bradley is young and has good boxing skills, I think it will be a close fight if Pacquiao doesn't improve on his most recent performances.

Nah...I've heard that a million times. No one can solve the puzzle if you fight against Pacquiao because he's just so fast, so smart, so strong and so elusive. He can beat anyone with his own street fighting style, he doesn't really need to be technical on this one. I've heard all the expectations from all previous Pacquiao opponents like Cotto, de la Hoya, Marquez, Hatton, Margarito to fight Manny in close distance but no one has ever done it. This is no brainer, Pacman will easily beat Bradley.

When you look at his resume is it really that good? I'm surprised you mentioned Marquez considering he was outboxed in that fight and the decision was daylight robbery. Even Amir Khan said Marquez deserved to win. Bradley will cause him problems, mark my words.

Yeah, I hope we can bet on this one. I would bet $100 for your $50. That's how confident I am for my boy Manny. Bradley won't even see it coming...

I wouldn't bet on Bradley, I would lose my money, haha. Pacquiao is the clear favorite, but people are underestimating Bradley. He's a decent fighter and strong. What I don't understand about Bradley is that he is prepared to fight Pacquiao, yet he ducked Amir Khan.

There you go. Good thing that we're clear. No one can beat Manny no matter who you put in front of him as long as it's within his weight. That's the reason Mayweather is making a lot of excuses from Steroids to issues splitting the money. He just don't want to fight him.
