By Ray Wheatley — World of Boxing
Former multi world champion Timothy Bradley who is in Australia and will be at ringside for the WBO welterweight championship title bout between champion Manny Pacquiao and challenger Jeff Horn on Saturday ( Sunday in Australia) to call the fight on ESPN at the Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane with expected attendance of 55,000+ with viewing audience on ESPN of over ten million in the USA. Bradley talked to Grantlee Kieza of the Courier Mail at a VIP luncheon at the Brisbane convention centre Friday
“My advice is for Jeff Horn is to be cautious,” said Bradley, who will call the fight on the American TV network ESPN.
“Manny Pacquiao is still overwhelmingly fast. He’s 38 and not the fighter he once was, but he’s still a phenomenal fighter. He’s a legend for a reason. Don’t underestimate his speed and power because he is still lightning fast and his footwork is incredible.
“Jeff Horn must not be naive or feel invincible. If you try to rush Manny he will set you up and hit you with that big left hand. He still has the speed, reflexes, power and experience. But Jeff should be confident because he’s a strong kid with the power to do something great.”
