Does Bradley have a shot?

I will. Both Manny and Floyd are so brilliant at what they do that it's a thing of beauty to watch them work, even when they're dominating inferior fighters.

My expectations are so low with these fights that if bradley, like cotto against money, can piss a drop against pacman it will be watchable.

No. Bradley is definition of feather fisted he has nothing to keep Pacquiao from running right over him.

I'll be watching, for sure.
This MAY be a very good fight.

Bradley MAY be good enough to make this fight a lot more interesting than people expect.

In fact, I'm calling the upset.
Tim Bradley wins a split decision.


...and its about time we give up on the whole Mayweather/Pacquiao hope. It'll never happen, and I blame Bob Arum.
Now, if that fight isn't gonna happen, we need Bradley to beat Pacquiao (and again in the rematch) to get him out of the picture.

Mayweather vs. Bradley (after twice defeating Pac) would not sell as well as it would against Pacquaio, but its better than nothing.

Don't blame Arum, blame "Money" Mayweather.

Pac has already agreed to the blood testing, and now Mayweather is using the "Bob Arum" excuse regarding the money situation.

Mayweather is ducking Pac, because he knows Pac is the only fighter that can beat him.

They are both dumb fricks if they leave 40 million bucks on the table.

Although I dont think he wins the fight, I think Bradley can win a few rounds and make it an entertaining fight much like Cotto did with Floyd. Bradley is a solid inside fighter and throws the best headbutts since Evander Holyfield, haha (on "accident" I am sure). So he might be able to make it a dirty fight for a few rounds here and there if he can stay close to Manny. When the fight was first announced, I saw odds as high as 7:1, which I thought was way too high. They have since fallen between 3:1 or 4:1. I havent looked in the last week, but I imagine they are still probably in that range.

i truly believe it would be even greater than 40 million.. there is no reason not to split it either.
