By Robert Morales - Perhaps Timothy Bradley didn't realize last week that the 24th anniversary of Buster Douglas' shocking 10th-round knockout of Mike Tyson in Japan was Tuesday, when he used that fight as an example of one way he would like to beat Manny Pacquiao in their April 12 rematch at MGM Grand in Las Vegas (on HBO pay-per-view).
Bradley was on the phone with yours truly a week ago Wednesday when he was asked how badly he wants the type of victory over Pacquiao about which no one - not even the Pacquiao fanatics - can complain. The first time they fought - in June 2012 at MGM Grand - Bradley won a very controversial split-decision, and took Pacquiao's welterweight belt.

But I need a decisive win, man, to where I've got to win every single round or kind of like in the (Juan Manuel) Marquez fight, where I was leading and I was, in everybody's mind, I was winning that fight fairly easy. It has to be similar to that or a spectacular knockout miracle." [Click Here To Read More]
