Manny Pacquiao vs Timothly Bradley III

[BAD INTENTIONS]

What has Bradley done at 147?? Besides nothing. Let us talk about his career at WW. because that is what he is being ranked at here. 3 losses to manny and a draw to Chaves. He beat Vargas but I do not think he wins a rematch. He is an American and that is all he has going for him. He is not that good.

You just don't like the dude for whatever reason.

His 3 fights with Manny didn't look like Manny/JMM, but it also didn't look like Manny/DLH.
That's three 8-4 type decision losses to Manny.
He was also never in serious trouble against Manny. 36 rounds.

He beat (8-4) the JMM that just knocked Manny silly.
Only Floyd beat Marquez more convincingly.

He beat Chaves (underrated fighter), bullshit decision.
He beat Vargas.
He beat Rios.

Internet troll..... Calls great fighters b level and not in the top ten. Took a fight that we should be honoring and having fun with and pulled a bunch of us into bothering to reply. Bill Dwyre one of the most esteemed sports writers in the country and someone who has followed boxing for years wrote that Bradley is the second best welter not names Pacquiao. Guess he is an idiot too. I am not even a particular fan of Bradley but no one who claims he has ever put the gloves would ever shoot a fighter down like that. Lance, you have never boxed competitively. Drop the lies and rhetoric and just be the fan boy your are.
Can we get back to the fight? It wasn't a classic but certainly wasn't a bad way to go. I am a Mayweather fan for all the skills he has. All timer, but Pac had a better retirement fight than Floyd. Then again I don't blame either of them because there is nothing left to prove. Floyd came up from 128 and Manny 106. Incredible what they both accomplished!

a great fight and i like this, because now is the right time for manny to quit. he got his redemption and if he carries on he will eventually get taken out on a stretcher again

True.

It is also extremely impressive what Ramming Speed has accomplished, given his lack of pop. There are precious few (if any) boxers with a resume to match Tim's.

When someone makes a ridiculous claim like the list of boxers who would beat Tim that was posted on this thread (including people he has already defeated), it is a foregone conclusion that the person will be reduced to accusing everyone who disagrees with him of not knowing boxing, instead of just respecting those with differing opinions, or simply admitting that his position was overstated. Unfortunately, too few people possess the capacity to admit publicly when they are mistaken, even when it is within the anonymity of an Internet forum.

Tim Bradley is a first round HOFer if he retires today. Not one of the people on that list will attain an easy W v Ramming Speed.

Bradley has had a hall of fame career. Lost to one fighter. He is exactly where he belonged in the boxrec ratings #3. Look at his opponents - who else has fought that list?!

Funny quotes here today..... Bradley not top ten takes the cake.

He would not beat the guys I listed. He is overrated for anyone who knows boxing.

That means everyone but you.

Mayweather is full of it seeing as that he lost in many people's minds to JLC in their first fight. And Mayweather also had a much tougher fight against maidana.

Mayweather said that HIMSELF, so how would you know better than him about his hardest fight, he lost easily to Castillo, but how does that change who Bradley has fought and the fact that you said he wouldn't beat anyone on YOUR list when in reality he has already beat a couple, you've made yourself look like an imbecile

He did not beat Peterson at 147 and Vargas wins that rematch. Anyway if you think Bradley is top 5 in the division you do not know boxing. Plain and simple. Also you have to tjrow in the fact that he is an American and Americans doi not have much to hold on to these days.

How does it matter about the fight being at 147, as long as they fought at the same weight, how do you know Vargas wins the rematch, that's your opinion

[Dancin' Dan]

Vargas has improved that would be a pick 'em fight. What makes boxing a great sport!

Apparrently Mayweather scored the fight a draw

[zeroprobe]

I thought Pac looked very sharp and fast. Before the Mayweather fight which be was obviously pumped up for ,I thought Pac was getting very flat footed and much slower. Tonight he seemed to reverse that. He seemed much lighter on his feet. Maybe the daily swimming helped.

Apparrently Mayweather scored the fight a draw

It is very possible Bradley won 5 rounds ... I'm sure there was another round in which reasonable bad judging could give to Bradley. So it's not inconceivable to say Bradley won 6 rounds.

However, the KDs were the punctuation to the trilogy imo.
They weren't devastating, but they kinda separated Manny and Bradley.
I don't know what the fornicate Ledderman was scoring,
but the KDs felt like they swung the entire match to Manny.

Pretty good fight.
Both guys looked good.
Manny is still better than everyone.
Bradley is still better than everyone else. I hope he sticks with Teddy.

That's three 8-4 type decision losses to Manny.
He was also never in serious trouble against Manny. 36 rounds.

Actually, he was hurt in practically every rd in the first fight. Only his chin held him up; had he decided to stand his ground instead of running, he would have been kod. There's a reson why the first fight was the only one Tim got booed by the public in the later rds ( and then plenty more after the decision).

He beat (8-4) the JMM that just knocked Manny silly.
Only Floyd beat Marquez more convincingly.

WTF ?
A split against a 40 year old is a convincing win in your book ? I had it a draw; Tim fought a scared fight, by the way.

I went back and watched all 3 Pac V Bradley fights in slow motion with an educated and objective eye, and Tim won all 3 fights!



That was my best 'current boxrec poster' impression.
(Nailed it!)

[Lancenix]

Yeah let Bradley fight Spence. It would only last a few rounds before the KO. Like I said you all fell on your knees for a fake HBO PPV and neither one of these guys beats Spence and this was a fake feature. Spence kicks the ass of either one of these small Welters. Bradley would get licked by Spence after all of you fell at his feet last week./ Patchetic!!

I did too. I also watched them in reverse, frame by frame, with the sound off. You are right, Bradley won all three! Next time I will watch with one eye closed, standing on my head.
