Manny Pacquiao vs Timothy Bradley will step in the ring on June 9 with a history of fights under their belts. Their history will determine the habits they will form and the ways they adjust.
With Pacquiao, his recent career is well-documented with his last seven fights bordering on common knowledge. Bradley is a different story.
Most casual fans don't know or have never even heard of Bradley. They have nothing to draw from that would allow them to accurately gauge Bradley's chances of success.
If this fight is to sell over a million pay-per-views, It will have to do so by selling the competitiveness of this fight.
For those who can't see how Bradley will fair against Pacquiao, here are five fights that will tell the story of their June 9th encounter.
Timothy Bradley vs. Kendall Holt
In this fight, Bradley displays his ability to take the hardest punch of his career. Junior welterweight powerhouse Kendall Holt dropped Bradley twice in a very good fight.
But Holt is not Pacquiao, the man who dropped and backed up welterweights/junior middleweights Shane Mosley and Miguel Cotto.
Whether Bradley can take Pacquiao's punch will be something to see.
