Fighters stepped on the scale this Friday, April 8 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Manny Pacquiao weighed in at 145.5 while Timothy Bradley marked 146.5 both fighters just below the 147 limit and in impressive shape.
This doesnít come as a surprise though, if something has been clear throughout their careers is the fact that they are both professionals, they take their job seriously, they donít have problems making weight and they have a strong discipline that is probably what has allowed them to stay current in this tough sport for so long and at a great level. #PacBradley might not be an easy fight to bet on, but an exciting one.
Boxing's only eight-division world champion, Manny Pacquiao and five-time world champion Timothy Bradley face off again for the third time on Saturday, April 9 for the† Vacant WBO International Welterweight title.
Does the fact that this is the third time these fighters collide make it less appealing?† Perhaps to some, but for the majority this encounter still has its charm. The first time this fighters fought, back in 2012, Tim Bradley came out victorious, but it was not a deserved victory, it was one of boxingís shameful judge decisions. †The second time around in 2014 Manny Pacquiao took a Unanimous Decision win over a version of Bradley that didnít look 100%.
Third time is a charm, right? And this may be Pacmanís final event; after his lousy performance against Floyd Mayweather 11 months ago, this is his time for redemption, his opportunity to give closure to his career showing off his great skills and the impressive champion and athlete he has always been.
