Timothy Bradley Jr. is getting his big moment by squaring off against Manny Pacquiao, but it's not going to end well for the rising star because the champ will not falter against a lesser known opponent. Bradley is hopeful this will be his breakthrough, but he'll crack under pressure on the big stage 

Boxing fans always want excitement, and they were hoping to get that in Pacquiao's next fight. Unfortunately, Pac-Man won't be facing Floyd Mayweather Jr, which is a matchup everyone has been anxiously waiting for. 

It's a wonder if that will ever happen, but for now, fans must settle for a Pac-Man vs. Desert Storm match that will end in disappointment. 

Bradley and his people still have to finalize the deal, but Pacquiao has agreed to the terms to fight on June 9 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas. 

This is a great opportunity for Bradley, so he's going to make sure this deal gets done. However, Pacquiao is going to make quick work of him, leaving the fans wanting more. Maybe then a deal to fight Pretty Boy Floyd will finally be made.

If you don't know who Bradley is, you'll learn of him but then soon forget him once Pacquiao denies his dreams of a huge upset. 

Bradley holds the junior welterweight title, but is now vying for Pac-Man's big boy belt, the welterweight title. 

With an impressive 28-0 record, Bradley knows what he is doing in the ring. Then again, so does Pacquiao, and he is light years ahead of Bradley. Sure, Bradley may have five years on him, but Pac-Man's experience in the ring will prove to be the difference maker. 

If nothing else, this will be a great chance for Bradley to learn. Pacquiao was aiming for the superfight, and while he may be bummed it didn't happen, he won't let his mind stray from his next fight because of it. Nor will he overlook his next opponent.

Bradley is no slouch, it's just that Pacquiao is the king, and he will ruin Desert Storm's attempt to obtain the title. 

June 9 could be a monster day for the young up-and-comer, but unfortunately, Bradley will get star struck first by Paccquiao himself and then by Pacquiao's fists.
