I still pick Manny to win, but I can see it being more competitive. I don't think Bradley looked at his best physically when they last fought and he was pretty wild and reckless too, but I think he'll tighten up the screws for sure. Bradley will be 110% motivated and in great shape next time, but still, Manny hasn't looked completely shot in his recent fights and he's just levels above Bradley.
Either Bradley will be bellowing the blues in Biloxi by B.B. King's birthday on a riverboat called "Bummed Boxer" OR Manny will be massaging males for money in a movie called "Bangkok in Emmanuel"
If Bradley wasn't at his best then he probably won't be now given the tough beatings he's had since. Pacquiao won the first fight easily anyway.
Pacquiao won 10 of 12 rounds in their fight fight......and got robbed...so I'm guessing this time Pacquiao will fight more than 1 minute a round...and KO the bum.
Pacquiao Won Rather CONVINCINGLY the 1st Time, in REED's Opinion...Pac COASTED a Bit in the 2nd Half of the Fight, but Completely OUTCLASSED Bradley in the 1st Half...Honestly, Bradley's "Win" was 1 of THE WORST Big Fight Decisions in Recent Memory... Friends of REED Left the Sports Bar when the Bell Rang to END Round 12...Pac UD was Academic, or SEEMED to Be, Anyways...When REED Called his Friends Back to Tell them Bradley Won, they ALL Thought REED was Bullshitting...Pac OBVIOUSLY Won the Fight, Period... If Pac CLOSES Well, he just May STOP Bradley...But Even if he Doesn't, Pac will Finally Get the Unanimous Decision WIN he Deserved All Along... Tim Bradley's a SOLID Pro, but he's NOT on the Same Level as Manny Pacquiao... REED:hammert:
i didnt see the white wash in the first fight. it was competitive and it shall be again. lets not forget bradley was fighting with TWO BROKE FEET. highly doubt pacquiao stops the guy, he simply doesnt do that anymore. i do expect pacquiao to win via decision, deserved or not, the judges will bend over backwards to give him the close rounds.
It was, but Pacquiao won it clearly. Competitive doesn't mean the scores were correct. I agree Manny doesn't stop him. (or try) I don't know about "bend over backwards", but good chance the judges are aware of what happened in the first fight and try to bend things a bit ala MAB-Morales 2.
I watched the fight back last night and although Pacquiao definitely won, I thought Bradley boxed better than originally thought. He gave Pac a very good fight.
I think the crucial factor here is the injuries. What are the odds of that occurring again?? You gotta figure in the rematch at worst Bradley will only break one foot not both. Possibly zero
I scored it 10-2 Pacquiao. I was disappointed in Bradley, I expected him to do better. He fought meakly and he was outclassed. I don't even think he was particularly competitive tbh. Most of the rounds were won decisively. I mean, he wasn't being slapped from pillar to post obviously, but Pacquiao was getting the better of him decisively.
...& Getting Knocked Off Balance by a PUNCH is what Led to the "Broken" Feet...Sure Wish George Foreman was Commentating that Night..."Bradley BROKE HIS FEET!!!"...
It WASN'T a Competitive Fight...Even Tim Bradley's WIFE Didn't Believe So...ALL Fight Loooooooong, She had that FROZEN Look of FEAR on her Grill...Pacquiao will Leave LESS Room for Doubt in the RE, which is BAD for Tim Bradley...
i dont know what caused it, but when a guy breaks both feet and still wins that is an accomplishment. when you figure it wont happen again, plus bradley is younger, more confident and seasoned in big PPV fights now than then, and pacquiao has been knocked out cold since the first fight, you have to figure bradleys chances are better than going into the first encounter. i guarantee i wont be able to bet bradley by decision and get 7.5 - 1 again
You Won't Be Able to Bet that Line Because of the ABSURDITY of the 1st Decision, Bro...Let's NOT Forget, the CUNT that Turned In the Ridiculous Card in Floyd-Canelo was ALSO a Judge in Pac-Bradley...Had She NOT Been Judging Pac-Bradley I, there WOULDN'T Even Be a RE...Bradley LACKS the Power to KO Pacquiao & there's a SIZABLE GAP btwn the 2 Men, Skillfully...
