Roach wants Bradley as sparring partner for Pacquiao: Is Freddie overdoing it a little?
December 21st, 2009
By Manuel Perez: Philboxing is reporting that Freddie Roach is looking to get Timothy Bradley as one of Manny Pacquiao’s sparring partners to help prepare for the fight against Floyd Mayweather Jr. I think Roach is starting to go overboard now with his ideas for Pacquiao. If they use Bradley as sparring partner for Pacquiao, they’ll probably have to take Manny out for the fight in a gurney with an IV bag connected to him, because there won’t be much left for him to fight Mayweather. I wonder what Pacquiao is thinking about all this?
That’s like sending a young George Foreman, Mike Tyson and Larry Holmes to David Haye’s training camp to help him prepare for his fight with John Ruiz next year. They’d have to cart what’s left of Haye out in a wheelbarrow for the fight, because he’d be in sheer hell during training camp. Does Roach really want that for Pacquiao? He’s already got Amir Khan as one of the sparring partners.
If you add Bradley to that mix, then I really feel sorry for Pacquiao. Can you imagine how much punishment Pacquiao migh have to absorb against those two fighters.
I think Roach needs to stop helping Pacquiao so much and start downsizing his idea. I want Pacquiao to be whole for his fight with Mayweather, not looking like a survivor of the Napoleonic wars. Someone needs to calm Roach down with his ideas before Pacquiao gets badly hurt. I don’t want Pacquiao coming out looking half beaten already. He has it bad enough already with arguably the best fighter on the planet facing him.

Bradley is garbage.
First you say Manny isn’t using good enough sparring partners vs. Cotto…
Now he’s “overdoing it”…..
manuel you are sad homie…

If your a good boxer with excellent defense toughness means little, look at Pernell Whitaker a lot of the guys he fought can punch harder that he can, on top of the fact that his hands were prone to breaking. Mayweather is a slick boxer who is going to give Pacman trouble, Roach knows it that’s why he chose Bradley as a sparring partner to help him prepare, Bradley is a very good boxer.
if perez is sayin that bradley is better than pacquiao that means he is trying to say bradley is better then cotto,oscar you dum bastard manuel
Manuela – shut the f..k up. All of your dire predictions abour Pac’s demise never had a chance of happening. Why don’t you spar with Pac? and see how’s it like. I bet you write a lot of stuff about Pac but you’ve never seen him in the gym sparring?
Perez still obsessing over Pacman. He probably has a shrine of Pacman on his wall.
sparring is not match in itself, its sparring for crying out loud. in your doomed boxing view, i’m sure we would be watching sparring matches than the actual contests. go to the boxing gym and request a sparring session and then request a real fight with the same fighter, then you’ll know the difference.
hahaha.so funny! another inverted story… to tell u all, this mr perez is making brutal stories 4 pac though he is pac number 1 fan, it is because he just want us to hate him and take our interest to see his articles.. and the persons who agree with his writings is a big “FOOL”…
PEREZ IS A LUNATIC. I COULD NEVER IMAGINE THAT SUCH KIND OF A MAN EXIST IN AMERICA.NOT A SINGLE WORD HE SAYS IS WORTH LISTENING TO. PEREZ THE PERISH, THE CLOWN SHOULD BE CARTED TO THE MENTAL HOSPITAL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, FOR BEING OUT OF HIS MIND, ALL OF THE TIME! GAGO!
do you mean Bradley is better than pacman. . the p4p king? oows! then master Roach is right to include him as paman’s sparring partner and remember this mr/ms perez, Mr. Bradley will be going home with all praises to pacman
What happened to saying “i told you so” when cotto dropped pacquiao like you predicted? oh thats right, you clearly dont know what your talking about.
keep hating pac, perez. youre clearly running out of ideas to do so.
“I think Bradley is better than Pacquiao. It will be a disaster to have him in training camp having him pummel Pacquiao on a daily basis and causing him to spit teeth.” Manny Perez
Don’t worry Manuel Perez, you’ve always been wrong in your thinking and predictions about Pacquiao.
so bradley (junior welterweight) hits harder than porter (junior middleweight sparring partner for the cotto fight)? good job on your analysis. perez is keeping his perfect record of 0-4.
manny is used to be sparring bigger sparmates and one of them is shawn porter during the cotto fight.. and your telling that pacquiao will be punished? see and mayweather will be eating gloves on March 13.. your predictions aren’t working against PACMAN.. Bradley will be sent home packing because of kissing the canvass during sparring sessions.
If Bradley is better than Pacquiao, then it’s good because if Manny can learn from Bradley then Floyd would be easy pickin’ cause Manny is much tougher than Floyd.
VERY FUNNY , ARE U A COMIC? ARE U TALKING ABOUT “NO POWER ” BRADLEY? I LOVE TIMOTHY BRADLEY BUT COME ON MAN PAC IS JUST TO STRONG FOR HIM – HE WOULD BE A GREAT SPARRING PARTNER FOR PAC THOUGH!
