Pacquiao agrees to rematch with Bradley

A rematch between world boxing icon Manny Pacquiao and American champion Timothy Bradley Jr. may happen soon.
This after Bradley scored a split decision win over Pacquiao’s Mexican nemesis, Juan Manuel Marquez, during their match last week in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Pacquiao himself has reportedly agreed to the rematch, but the Filipino fighting congressman must first prove himself by beating Brandon Rios in their November 14 bout in Macau.
Pacquiao is training hard for that comeback fight with Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach and assistant trainer Buboy Fernandez.
Pacquiao lost his last two fights – first with Bradley in a controversial decision and to Marquez during a sixth round knockout.
And he has to redeem himself if he has to continue fighting before hanging his gloves.
Pacquiao said he is good for two to three more fights before retiring.
Boxing fans the world over have been anticipating keenly a proposed dream fight between Pacquiao and undefeated American champion Floyd Mayweather Jr.
If the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight happens, it will be the richest as it was earlier touted a $50 million prize money for each of the fighters.
 After his split-decision win over  Marquez, Bradley announced that he should now be ranked in the world’s top three.
“I have to be considered top three in the world now,” Bradley  said. “There is Floyd Mayweather, there is Andre Ward and there is Tim Bradley.”
The Ring Magazine seemed to support Bradley as it had just ranked him third in pound-for-pound ratings.
In its latest rankings released on Tuesday, Bradley zoomed five notches from No. 8 to No. 3, behind top-ranked Mayweather and Ward, ABS-CBN reported.
Marquez, on the other hand, dropped three spots to No. 6.
 Pacquiao dropped a notch to No. 7, while American Adrian Broner also dropped one spot to No. 8.
The rest of the top 10 stayed the same.
The rankings of Marquez, Bradley and Pacquiao on The Ring’s list widely differed from that of Sports Illustrated, which released its latest update on Monday.
In the magazine’s rankings, Pacquiao was fourth, Marquez was sixth and Bradley was ninth.
Both rankings, however, had Mayweather on top, followed by Ward.
