PUNXSUTAWNEY PHIL PREDICTS: ?TIM BRADLEY WILL AVENGE HIS ONLY LOSS!" PhilBoxing.com Wed, 03 Feb 2016  GOBBLER'S KNOB, (Groundhog Day 2016) -- At approximately 7:25 A.M. ET today, Punxsutawney Phil -- the Seer of Seers, Prognosticator of Prognosticators -- emerged from his burrow at Gobbler's Knob in Punxsutawney, PA -- wearing a Denver Broncos jersey embroidered with "Manningfest Destiny" -- and proclaimed, in his native Groundhogese, that five-time world champion TIMOTHY ?Desert Storm? BRADLEY would prevail in the rubber match of the world welterweight championship trilogy with Fighter of the Decade MANNY ?Pacman? PACQUIAO on Saturday, April 9, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas., NV. Promoted by Top Rank?, in association with MP Promotions, the world welterweight championship three-match between pound-for-pound titans Pacquiao (57-6-2, 38 KOs), of General Santos City, Philippines, boxing's only eight-division world champion, and Bradley (33-1-1, 13 KOs), of Palm Springs, Calif., who has held a world title every year since 2008, will be produced and distributed live by HBO Pay-Per-View?, beginning at 9:00 p.m. ET / 6:00 p.m. PT. "I caucused long and hard over this. Because both fighters are equally great, I had to break the deadlock on predicting the winner by flipping a coin," said the world?s No. 1 pound for pound quadruped as he shadowboxed during his annual news conference.. "Both fighters are going to go at each other with guns blazing. It's going to be a firefight, and since Bradley and his trainer Teddy Atlas are firemen, you have to give them the nod. I also predict that Bradley will spring into an early lead for 2016 Fighter of the Year." When pressed for a definitive answer on whether Pacquiao had a chance to defeat Bradley, Phil astounded the media by answering in Tagalog and in English. Quoth the groundhog, "Hinding-hindi na. Nevermore." ******************************* Remaining Tickets to Pacquiao vs. Bradley world championship event are priced at $1,204, $804, $604, $404, $254 and $154, not including applicable service fees.
