Manny Pacquiao: “I Need To Win This Fight.”

Manny Pacquiao talks exclusively with Sherdog.com’s TJ De Santis about his April 12 rematch with Timothy Bradley. In short, Pacquiao knows he has a lot to prove.

Pacquiao lost in a very controversial decision to Bradley following their first fight. No doubt Pacman wants a one-sided fight to prevent such a ruling this time around; he wrote in a recent HBO blog post:

“There is something different in this training camp. There are a lot of people who doubt I can fight the same way I fought when I knocked out Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton, Erik Morales and Marco Antonio Barrera. I want to prove to them that I am the best. I am inspired. I am the challenger. I know I will need to outbox and outspeed Bradley. And that is what I will do. This is the first time I have challenged for a world title that I lost. Do I want it back? You bet I do; and I want it back from Tim Bradley.”
