Juan Manuel Marquez vs Timothy Bradley

Juan Manuel Marquez says he's got a fight with Timothy Bradley set for September 14 at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas. Marquez has previously stated that he is not interested in a fifth fight with Manny Pacquiao which seemed to leave him with few options. From what Marquez said in today’s interview the number is two, Mike Alvarado or Timothy Bradley. Marquez won his last match with flying colors as he surprised the whole boxing world with his 6th round knockout against Manny Pacquaio.

Bradley has won his last match against Ruslan Provodnikov via unanimous decision. The Bradley vs Marquez Tickets are available for purchase now at the Thomas and Mack ticketing booths and other outlets near the event place. You may also book tickets as easy through trusted and reliable ticketing site in the web.

“I had a meeting, I spoke with my family. The decision was made because I still feel good. I feel capable and I can probably do two or three more fights,” Marquez told ESPN Deportes Radio. 

Marquez says he was given two return options – Bradley or WBO interim-junior welterweight champion Mike Alvarado. He selected Bradley. 

“They discussed two opponents for September 14: Mike Alvarado and Timothy Bradley. I like challenges, Bradley would be a difficult fight for me. Apart from being world champion it would be a challenge to fight him and win another big challenge title in a fifth division, which for me is something that fills me with pride to have the opportunity to try,” he said. 

This move by Marquez would leave Manny Pacquiao with the likely face Alvarado on a date in October in Macau.

Pacquiao vs Bradley Championship Match

The Pacquiao vs Bradley World Welterweight championship has finally come. Just a little more weeks to go and we will finally witnessed the two fighters. Both camps are preparing for the heavy schedule ahead of them! Less than a three weeks a way before the world championship match that features intriguing undefeated fighter Timothy Bradley of the US and the current WBO Welterweight title holder Manny Pacquiao of Philippines. 

They are both the same height and Bradley appears to have a 2 inch reach advantage, although that is utilizing the moronic old school method of measuring reach from fingertip to fingertip across the chest. Now, let us deeply analyze both fighters strengths, capacities and records on our Pacquiao vs Bradley tale of the tape analysis. First off, Manny Pacquiao has a total boxing record of 59 fights, 54 wins and 38 of which comes from knockout, 3 losses and 2 draws. The 33-year old professional boxer from the Philippines gained 8 belts on different weight classes. He’s the reigning WBO welterweight champion and no 1 pound for pound king according Ring Magazine. Pacquiao stands 169 cm and has a reach of 170cm. 

Timothy Bradley is the current WBO light welterweight champion. His professional records includes winning all 28 fights where 12 of which comes from TKO. Bradley is standing at 168 cm and has long reach of 175cm. No matter how improbable, Bradley could be a dangerous opponent with a surprise, just like when Pacquiao stunned Marco Antonio Barrera and the boxing world in 2003. Bradley has a wicked right hand and attacks like his sobriquet “Desert Storm.” He doesn’t have much of a KO punch, though, and may not be able to hurt Pacquiao. 

There’s a great chance this Pacquiao vs Bradley fight is going the distance given the fact that Bradley has never been stopped and doesn’t have the power to KO Pacquiao, can Bradley win a decision? Or can Pacquiao continue his own winning streak? There you go fanatics! Hoping you get all the ways to make sure you don't miss this exciting boxing match.
