By Chris Williams: WBO welterweight champion Tim Bradley (31-0, 12 KO’s) is predicting dire straights for the aging Manny Pacquiao (55-5-2, 38 KO’s) if he loses their long-awaited rematch on April 12th in Las Vegas, Nevada. Bradley thinks Pacquiao can’t afford another loss because it’ll show the boxing world that it’s over for him.
What Bradley is saying is that he has the potential to put Pacquiao out of his misery in this fight, and send him into retirement.
Pacquiao laughs at the thought of him facing retirement should he lose the fight, and he points out this this is exactly what they were saying before his fight against Top Rank stable fighter Brandon Rios last November.

While Pacquiao has said that he wants to fight more aggressively and not be the kind and compassionate fighter who let his recent opponent Brandon Rios off the hook when he could have knocked him out last November, but Bradley still doubts whether Pacquiao still has the fire in him to fight hard.

The 82-year-old Arum believes that the remaining tickets will be scooped up in the next 2 weeks by fans who are excited about seeing Pacquiao and Bradley fight again. 
By DA: On April 12th Manny Pacquiao (55-5-2, 38 KOs) will get a shot at redemption against Timothy Bradley (31-0, 12 KOs) who controversially defeated Pacquiao with a 12 round split decision and in the process taking his WBO Welterweight title. I’m gonna point out the facts, Pacquiao missed a lot of his punches and HBO’s biased commentary would applaud everything he threw when clearly he did not land. But for Tim he didn’t do much at all to Pacman but stay on the defensive.

Pacquiao sees his superior hand speed is being too good for Bradley to be able to earn another 12 round decision against him like he got 2 years ago in their infamous fight in June of 2012. Pacquiao won’t let Bradley get escape with another win over him.
By Chris Williams: At today’s press conference with Manny Pacquiao (55-5-2, 38 KO’s) and WBO welterweight champion Tim Bradley (31-0, 12 KO’s), Pacquiao talked about coming into their April 12th rematch a younger fighter than he’s shown in his last handful of fights. Pacquiao plans on finding the fountain of youth by the time he faces Bradley in April, and he expects to look like a brand new Pacquiao. 
By Chris Williams: This week, Manny Pacquiao (55-5-2, 38 KO’s) and WBO welterweight champion Tim Bradley (31-0, 12 KO’s) will be taking part in a 2-city media tour to attract interest in their April 12th rematch at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. Pacquiao plans on immediately starting his training camp after he concludes the media tour. On Tuesday, Pacquiao and Bradley will be in Los Angeles, California in the first city of the tour. On February 5th, they’ll travel to New York to conclude the tour. 
By Chris Williams: It seems that Top Rank promoter Bob Arum won’t have to worry about trying to scratch up an opponent for Manny Pacquiao to fight next September, because Juan Manuel Marquez (55-7-1, 40 KO’s) has told Arum that he wants to fight the winner of the April 12th fight between Pacquiao and WBO welterweight champion Tim Bradley.
