5 reasons why Pacquiao vs. Bradley will be a great fight

Pacquiao vs Bradley: On June 9, 2012 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, Manny Pacquiao will once again face another opponent whose name is not Floyd Mayweather, Jr. At this point, it doesn't matter who's to blame for the fight not happening - I just really do not care who Pacquiao or Mayweather fights anymore until they fight each other.

With that said, Manny Pacquiao will be putting his WBO welterweight championship on the line against Timothy Bradley, in what should end up being a great fight. Even though I thought Bradley was ducking Amir Khan, he turned out to make the right move, as he really just wanted a shot at greatness and a big payday against Pacquiao.

So, as upset as I am that Pacquiao vs. Mawyeather remains nothing but a tease, in boxing you have to let the chips fall where they may sometimes. As such, now Pacquiao has an opponent in front of him on June 9th that I feel will not just go after a big paycheck, but he will enter the ring and make a sincere attempt at solving the PacMan puzzle. Therefore, I feel that the fight on June 9th can still be an exciting and hopefully great fight, and here are the top 5 reasons why.


   1. Bradley’s Opportunity
   2. Styles
   3. PacMan’s Speed
   4. Money
   5. The Stakes

The question is now whether or not Bradley can perform under the biggest of all stages when he squares off against the pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao. Add to that the fact that Pacquiao knows that he cannot take Bradley lightly, which means Bradley will have to be almost perfect to beat Manny when they meet in June.

As far as PacMan goes, his legacy is not at stake in this fight because he has done enough to cement himself as one of the all-time greats in our sport. However, before Manny rides off into the sunset, I am sure that in the back of his mind the question still lingers as to whether or not he can beat Mayweather, and I believe that this will be the motivation that will ultimately drive him past Bradley and ensure he shows up in top form, and puts on a thrilling encounter.
