The American undefeated fighter with 28 wins, presently holds a title at the junior welterweight division while Pacquiao reigns as the WBO welterweight champ.
The Pacquiao vs Bradley fight will happen on June 9 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas after the supposed Pacquiao match against Mayweather did not push through.
For Bradley, his fight with Manny is a great opportunity and in one interview said that he is ready to face the pound-for-pound great.
"I'm ready for this challenge.
I think that June 9th is my time. Manny Pacquiao has reigned for a very long time, and I feel that I'm the new face of boxing.”
But he also said that it will surely be a tough fight with Pacquiao, but added that he is ready for it.
"I know it’s going to be hell in the ring with Manny Pacquiao.
I feel that it's going to be one heck of a challenge, but I'm up for it and I feel that I’m capable of winning this fight.”
He also praised Pacquiao saying,
"I don't have to say anything negative or anything bad about him. He's a great person. He’s a great model for kids.
I really like Manny Pacquiao a great deal in and outside of the ring."
