We'll seeBradley lose to everyone on that list expect Broner
I would LOVE to see Tim against Danny Garcia/Keith Thurman/Shawn Porter/Kell Brook/Amir Khan/Adrien Broner. I think he beats all of them.
Cotto has nothing to gain vs Rios neither, he need a easy touch and wait for caneloI know he said he wanted to fight Cotto but Cottos not gonna take that fight. He has nothin to gain from it
If he was in with a sharp puncher like Brook
Yea it looks like they finally took a toll on him because those same punches from pac weren't bothering him 2years ago and 4yrs ago. Looks like all that extra info teddy gave him made him tentative Sucks I thought this performance would see Tim letting his hands go a lot more, while being responsible with his punches and moving. But he had the same balance problems after the 5th round. Dunno what's next for Tim after this. Hard pressed to see Manny retiring after such an impressive performance.ive talked about this brook-bradley scenario with @mr. smoke weed before ..like if they fought now..i think brook would really punish him
I mentioned this could happen before the rios fight....but rios was too far washed up to really expose it. switching trainers this late in your career is tough. you been fighting one way your whole career. eventually your natural urges will resurface.Yea it looks like they finally took a toll on him because those same punches from pac weren't bothering him 2years ago and 4yrs ago.

tim is who he is at this point. doubt teddy will be able to change him much. my main concern with bradley isn't his boxing, it's his punch resistance. dude got his equilibrium sent to the bushes by jessie fukkin vargas. that's some terrifying shyt to think about. switching trainers might actually end up hurting tim. he's gonna be trying to follow teddy's gameplan but fighting his own urges to do the opposite.
Manny wasn't even doing shyt and he zoned out and couldn't pull the trigger in normal fashion, his heart isn't in this anymoreYea it looks like they finally took a toll on him because those same punches from pac weren't bothering him 2years ago and 4yrs ago.

I wouldn't say Pac looked good and there were clear signs of him slowing down...Pacquiao looked good. Never believed he got old or injured like most people said. He looked very fluid. Probably the extra time off helped.
Bradley is what i'd call a great athlete, ok boxer.
The thing that worried me going into the fight was his reaction time. He's a half second too slow for top level talent. Also, he's not comfortable boxing controlled and in proper form. I that atlas would have had tim smothering Pac but it's whatever now.
The better talent won.
The thing with Monica is she was with him in the days when he didn't have shyt. The days before Timmy got his first title shot against junior witter. She didn't come aboard when Timmy was rich. That's the type of woman that should be in his corner.
BUT she played a hand that led to Timmy's defeat with her manager decisions though.
The less bounce in his step means he should be fighting bigger slower flat footed guys, Manny still has the quickest hands, feet and head movement, even in his more flat footed stage, a campaign at higher weights isn't smart, but he still prime enough to margarito Canelo in a good fightI wouldn't say Pac looked good and there were clear signs of him slowing down...
It was Pacs ability to throw power punches from awkward ass angles that won him the fight...That ability is never going to fade but the rest of his skillset isn't what it once was...
It was very apparent Pac don't have that bounce in his step anymore...Timmy also beat him to the punch more than just a handful of times...
The less bounce in his footwork is a major problem if he wasn't to continue boxing especially if he wants to get inthe ring with Canelo...
Canelo will destroy this dude, no way this Pac doesn't get
