Back in June of 2012 Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley faced each other in what became one of the most controversial boxing matches in the sport's history. Manny, a 7-2 favorite at the time, seemed as though he controlled every aspect of the fight, and the numbers didn't argue that, however the judges somehow clarified Bradley as the split decision winner and new WBO welterweight champion!
Manny suffered his first defeat in over 15 bouts whereas Bradley became champ and to this day is still undefeated. The rematch set to take place on April 12, 2014 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, NV is one of the most highly anticipated boxing matches in the past two decades.
Both fighters have endured a lot since the June 9, 2012 match and both realize they will have to be at their best to come out on top in April. Back in 2012 Manny, a strong leader and congressman from the Philippines, was 7-2
favorite however this time around will be much different at the Vegas sports books. Odds makers are already saying Pacquiao could be less than a 2-1 favorite to reclaim his title over the American fighter Timothy Bradley.
Career Records:
Timothy Bradley (current WBO welterweight champion): 31-0 with 12 KO
