Di­recTV will con­tin­ue its tra­di­tion of bring­ing the best of live box­ing cov­er­age when it broad­casts the much an­tic­i­pat­ed bout be­tween Man­ny Pac­quiao and Tim­o­thy Bradley Jr on its Chan­nel 503 tonight from 9 pm. "Pac­man" Pac­quiao will be de­fend­ing his World Box­ing Or­ga­ni­za­tion (WBO) Wel­ter­weight Cham­pi­onship against "Desert Storm" Bradley Jr at the MGM Grand Gar­den Are­na in Las Ve­gas, Neva­da. Ac­cord­ing to Pac­quiao's coach Fred­die Roach, he has what it takes and Bradley does not, re­fer­ring to Pac­quiao's su­pe­ri­or speed and work rate, which has of­ten led to the down­fall of many of his op­po­nents. On the oth­er hand Bradley has stat­ed that he is ex­cit­ed about this op­por­tu­ni­ty and ready to take the throne. He has been train­ing for the past three months and come match day he would have sparred about 160 rounds.
