I predicted in regular Yahoo article, I think by Paul Magno, that the fight was not in Bradley's hands. It was a matter of the effort that Pacquiao put in. In the first fight, Pacquiao fought maybe half the round, and in my opinion, still won the fight. If Manny fought the whole round or at least 2/3rds, it was not going to be as close a fight. Manny did what he did. He fought at least 2 minutes of each round, and while Bradley made a decent showing, he was clearly frustrated. He thought he would lure Pacquiao into traps, but he would get hit then swing at a target that had already moved away. He lost heart as the fight progressed because I think he realized that Pacquiao was just too much for him. Bradley is a very good fighter and I actually think that he might give Mayweather a better fight (because of styles) but he clearly could not match a motivated Manny Pacquiao.
I didn't see the fight. But I predicted a Pacman win by UD. And I was right. I thought he would go in more cautious this time. He did not want a repeat of JMM again.
In fact it was the other way around, Bradley wanted to KO Pacman so bad that he winded himself then hurt himself. That was kind of surprising for me.
I thought Bradley would try to be more careful this time.
Although I didn't see the fight I read it on the web.
He tired himself throwing so many reckless punches going for the knockout and after a few rounds he was done and had no more energy in him.
Excuse was his legs. When really he just fatigued from throwing so many haymakers the first 3 rounds.
He fought an 8 division alltime great fighter.People really have no clue as to just how fast Pacquiao is
