i live for handing out sonnings breh...some of these nikkas have to be brought down a peg or 2
I am impressed by your patience, bruh...the influx of dudes with Floyd's nuts in their mouth who act like shytting on Manny makes them bigger Floyd fans was just too much for me to take.[DOUBLEPOST=1397391727][/DOUBLEPOST]
That was a great fight until the 9th round. Manny won in my view by 2 rounds. A #3 would be better than any other TR fight right now.
Good fight overall, shame to see Bradley abandon his boxing for head hunting in the later rounds. Though in rd 8/9 pac won by using a wrestling move on tim and kicking his leg out.
116-112 was about as generous as you could get on those scorecards. Even the early rounds that Bradley looked to do well in were not really anything to get all excited about, people were just so surprised that Bradley didn't get completely shut out that they were being generous to a fault towards his actual minimal accomplishments in this fight.
Dude is not elite just like I gave been saying all along.:jawalrus:

I think Bradley was having some success early, but the constant power shots Pacquiao was landing made him go from offensive to defensive. His calf muscle injury notwithstanding, Bradley was getting hurt and made the adjustment of backing off Pacquiao in order to survive. Pacquaio picked up the pace and kept Bradley in retreat. I still feel Pacquiao beats Mayweather, simply cuz Im convinced that the shots Pacquaio was repeatedly landing on Bradley would put Mayweather down on his ass. Mayweather cant take power shots to the face; he's not used to that. He never has taken those shots. I think when he does take them, he wont react to them that well. And the success Bradley had was due to his aggressiveness in going for the KO. Mayweather would not be that aggressive.

Fight would've been better if Bradley wasn't giving away rounds, dancing like he was Pernell Whitaker :snoop:

Props to Manny. Regardless of whether we wanna debate if he's still in his prime or not, he's still a force.

We gonna need that 5th and final fight with JMM for all the marbles.

All in all, a good night of boxing :obama:

Manny looked much more human last night, the look on Tim's face was priceless. He knew he lost, hold on to the truck.

the manny last night will be food/domination for Floyd.

Manny taking an "Arturo Gatti" beating is far fetched brehs.


Yes, Floyd will beat Manny, but in order for him to "GATTI" Manny.....he would have to be able to land combinations and be in the pocket on with no fear of return fire from Manny. Thats not happening.


Floyd would NOT fight Manny like he fought Gatti, but I do think he will win dominant and cleanly. More like his victory over JMM than Gatti.
