you know there is gonna be some head clashes. Pac gotta be careful with that eye of his with all that scar tissue.

Im taking Bradley for the upset although I think it will be tough to win a decision over Pac. I just think he will have great success and make it hard for the judges to give it to Pac. Got Em!!

bradley would have to put on the best fight of his life.

two things that I would worry about for bradley:

1. He doesn't have much pop on his punches so it will be difficult to get pac's respect if he can't hurt him.
2. He's wild with his punches sometimes and lunges in with his face open, that could spell disaster for bradley.

but he's a cagey fighter, I think he'll be able to go the distance after suffering a knockdown. He's got a chin but he's been dropped a few times. Great recovery abilities kinda like Marquez.

lol at czar he disappears when his teams do shitty always starts a bulls or mets thread they do shitty then he goes undercover for like 5 months

Yea he does have to have his best fight! Im sure he will be ready and prepared to bring his A-game and I think he will atleast win 8 out of the 12 rounds. Pac better not underestimate him thats for sure. This should be a great fight though and although May/Pac arent fighting each other, I am stoked to see both fights! Got Em!!

This is a fight I want to see. I want to see how Manny looks against a undefeated prime fighter. I say Manny will wins a ugly UD, Bradley gets off the canvas and fights hard all 12 rounds pushing Manny the whole fight.

Although he doesnt have the greatest of power I could actually see Bradley floor Manny atleast one time but I dont think he will knock him out. Should be a great fight nonetheless. In a way I want Manny to lose but then again if there is still hope for a NOV fight with May I still want him to win so go figure. Got Em!!

 

[Rumpelstiltskin]

Manny is too awkward and Bradley is extremely stationary.
I don't see it being that close. Manny seems to be losing some steam off his punches though. So I don't think he will really hurt Bradley.

Good fight. Manny by clear UD.

Nov 2012 Manny will be fighting the Marquez vs Peterson winner, if that fight is made. No super fight with the other guy till 2013 if ever. Bob Arum has a plan and the other guy is not apart of them.
Manny vs Bradley should be good.

 

[Tony]

I agree, this is the best fight out there besides Floyd. At least Pacquiao is taking on someone that's undefeated.

 

[MOREBASS]

I think Tim's gigantic head could play a huge factor in this one, especially with the way Manny likes to dart in when attacking. Tim would be smart to try and make it a phone booth type of fight.


The next best two fights got made, even though we didn't get to see the big fight, but honestly I think these two fights are more entertaining anyways.

clottey had a better chance of beating manny lol no power in bradleys hands fuck bob arum and this fight

clottey had a better chance of beating manny lol no power in bradleys hands fuck bob arum and this fight

bradley won't pull a Clottey though and throw 1 punch every 4 rounds. Bradley comes to win. That's all he knows.

What fight should Pac have taken? What's wrong with fighting a guy who is undefeated and in his prime & recognized as the best junior welterweight?

Not sure why people would oppose this fight people complain pac is fighting older guys, or a certain style or whatever, well, Bradley is everything guys like Mosley & Margarito are not. Young, prime, athletic, etc.

That will suck. These cats aint getting any younger and they need to make it happen or just move on period. Got Em!!

clottey had a better chance of beating manny lol no power in bradleys hands fuck bob arum and this fight

Yea right. This will be a much better fight than that wack shit from Clottey! Got Em!!
