By M. Khan: Boxing repeats itself. The Perfect Storm is not necessarily the Desert Storm. If Timothy Bradley is using Manny “PacMan” Pacquiao’s last fight with Juan Manuel Marquez as a blueprint to beating PacMan, and Bradley is thinking that PacMan is slowly losing his grip, Bradley will be in for a rude awakening.

Bradley is definitely a legit challenger for PanMan. There’s no doubt that he has skills, lots more potential,
probably hits harder than many thinks. And the motivation and determination he brings with him, having this chance to fight PacMan and his chance in the spotlight.

Surely he trains hard and has a battle plan. There is no reason why he should not be given a winning chance.

Now about PacMan. He is fighting a young, strong, determined and UNDEFEATED Champion in Bradley. The last time PacMan fought an undefeated challenger was 2006, Jorge Solis and before that 2003 Lucero.

All of the NAMED fighters he ever fought, had all lost before.

Bradley MUST realize that PacMan is no Peterson or Alexander. Bradley must also realize that he is NOT MARQUEZ.

Just like Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier or Roy Jones Jr and Antonio Tarver and many more pairings.

These are the PERFECT STORM. This match ups, for all the reasons we know, will always be difficult for both fighters.

The same must be said about PacMan and Marquez. When Ali finally decided to go all out in the “Thriller in Manila” to break the perfect storm, it took a lot out of him and in the end the WIN, simply became a great fight and a win for him and FRAZIER respected for the great boxer he was.

Was PacMan really prepared in his last fight with Marquez to go all out, or was he satisfied just to get the win if he could not hurt Marquez?

Was it necessary for him to endanger himself to prove NOTHING. I saw no motivation in PacMan to do that. The fact is, if PacMan had lost on a close decision, it still would not have changed anything.

Manny will be very motivated for this fight, maybe even better than any other fights. This is actually a new beginning! There are VERY many reasons why PacMan will be ready for this fight this is the danger for Bradley.

Bradley has to fight his own fight, he cannot think that he can counter right hand punch PacMan like Marquez did.
And if he chooses to do this, he better hit as hard as Marquez.

If this is his only plan, it will be a short fight. PacMan is coming to STOP Bradley, he is not just coming to win.

Brawling with PacMan – Bradley can if he can hurt PacMan or hit hard enough to get the respect. If Bradley sees he can’t hurt him, he must change his plans.

My predictions is that Bradley will use Marquez’s last fight as a blueprint where many experts says, ‘shows flaws in PacMan’s fight game.’

The experts are wrong. This is a different fight. PacMan know he WILL have to take chances, like he always did before, and if Bradley cannot hurt him you will be able to read the brand name of his shoes from the bottom of his shoes.

Can Bradley out box PacMan? YES, he can. PacMan will not allow it by forcing Bradley into a brawl or simply use a Amir Khan tactics of hitting you and getting out of there.
