Las Vegas, Nevada: At the final press conference held Wednesday for the Pacquiao-Bradley fight on Saturday at the Grand Garden Arena, Tim Bradley not only spoke of his future upset victory over Manny Pacquiao but demonstrated it as well.
Towards the end of his almost mandatory presscon speech Bradley whipped up a giant replica of a ticket showing the date and the place of his ?re-match? with Manny Pacquiao should he prevail on Saturday.
An aide also displayed a purported ?poster? to be used to hype the supposed fight.
The only problem was that the great majority of the crowd thought that Bradley?s antics were funny given the fact that bookies at Vegas placed him as a 4-1 underdog.
Be that as it may, the announced odds did not fazed Bradley as he unequivocally stated that he is ready to surprise the world after going through hell in training camp.
The crowd?s reaction to his show-biz antics?
Mocking laughter and subtle jeers.
