HOLLYWOOD—Thrust into the international scene and showered with attention, Timothy Bradley has found it hard to cope up with the hype of his fight against global icon Manny Pacquiao on June 9.

Depicted as a gentle family man who prefers the confines of his community in the early buildup of their showdown for the WBO welterweight crown, Bradley has suddenly become a menacing, threatening presence.

The unbeaten American first claimed he was ready to shock the world by beating and dominating Pacquiao. Then Bradley vowed to punish and hurt the eight-division champion when they clash at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas.

The WBO light welterweight king then boasted that he’s ten times better than Juan Manuel Marquez, who gave Pacquiao a tough fight before losing by unanimous decision in their third battle last November.

Bradley’s latest pronouncements that appeared at BoxingScene.com, however, was a shocker.

“I can’t wait to get in there and kill this dude,” Bradley told Ryan Burton.

The 28-year-old Bradley, of course, can say what he wants. After all, he’s unbeaten in 28 fights, has trained rigorously for three months and, thanks to a vegan (vegetarian) diet, posseses a well-chiseled physique that would make even elite bodybuilders drool.

Bradley, thrash talking is easy. Just you wait until Manny thrashes you on Saturday. You are so afraid of Manny you do not even know what you are saying.

whew!! thats a bold wild guess..can bradley beat a bigger opponents like de la hoya,clottey,margarito and cotto?? i dont think he can..but all of them have already beaten by manny..if he got 12 KO’s in his 28 fights are he sure he can knocks out manny?? did he proves it even 50% of his opponent via KO’s?? im not sure for that..but if u see a 8 times division champions with 38 KO’s in his belt and beat a bigger than him and knock out cold a champion,demolish with stunning knockdowns and KO’s..whew!! maybe mr. bradley watch how hard the punches coming at you this June 9..you’ll feel it when the bell starts ringing..watch my word timothy..filipino boxers are one of the most hard hitting puncher boxer in the world..watch out for that when you taste one of the best!

It seems Manny is due for a loss….

If the fight goes beyond round 5, Manny will lose via TKO

This change by Bradley to a trash talker could be a marketing ploy especially if not all the tickets have been sold yet.
