Bradley: Pacquiao same fighter

On the other hand, Pacquiao is saying he is fighting his last one this coming April against a familiar foe – Timothy Bradley.

Not even the arrival stateside of Philippino icon Pacquiao could take away the “ho-hum” nature of this press conference. “Knowing what I know and going 24 rounds with him, knowing Manny Pacquai, he’s not King Kong, I feel honestly that this is my time and I am going to win this fight on April 09”.

Arum did announce that pre-sales for tickets to the fight were going well, and that tickets would nearly certainly sell out.

“She’s my candidate and I like her”, said Arum of Clinton, who also served as NY senator from 2001 until 2009 and Secretary of State from 2009 until 2013. I chose Bradley because he is a different and improved fighter now. I believe they both have a lot of persuasive power over Pacquiao.

Excuse my skepticism, but when a fighter says he will be fighting his last fight, that’s not often the case. Bradley won the first fight in controversial fashion and Pacquiao won the rematch convincingly. I know (it’s time to retire) because after this I have another big responsibility in the Philippines which is serving the people. I started boxing all those years ago to help my family, my mother. Pacquiao will face Bradley at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas completing a trilogy between two of the world’s top welterweights.

A judge Tuesday dismissed a defamation suit by Manny Pacquiao’s former strength and conditioning coach, who alleged Pacquiao trainer Freddie Roach made false statements implying that the plaintiff gave fighters performance-enhancing drugs. Khan, Bradley, Marquez, and the rematch with Floyd.

Arum would likely make the Pacquiao vs. Crawford fight in a second.

“So, in my opinion, he’s a little shady, so he’s with that camp now and it doesn’t surprise me that happened”, Roach said. With a guaranteed 20 million payday Pacquiao happily agreed to take on Bradley for a third time.

“This is a great opportunity, a privilege to fight Bradley again and I chose Bradley because I believe Bradley is different from before the last fight”.

Meanwhile, Bradley hired veteran trainer Teddy Atlas before his last bout with Brandon Rios, celebrating the change with ninth-round stoppage victory. I think he will fight in the future because I just don’t feel he’s all done.
