LAS VEGAS - Manny Pacquiao is taking extra motivation from taunts by unbeaten Tim Bradley that the Filipino boxing icon has lost the hunger and killer instinct he once displayed with great passion. The more he says that, the more he inspires me to show the hunger and killer instinct hes talking about, Pacquiao said Tuesday (Wednesday, PHL time). Its good for me but not for him I think. Pacquiao, 55-5 with two drawn and 38 knockouts, will fight Bradley, 31-0 with 12 knockouts, for the Americans World Boxing Organization welterweight title in Las Vegas on April 12 (April 13, PHL time). The fight will be a rematch of a controversial Bradley victory by split decision in June of 2012 in which all three judges scored the fight 115-113, two of them for Bradley in what was seen as a robbery from Pacquaio. You dont get mad. Its part of life, said Freddie Roach, Pacquaios trainer. Revenge is great. Thats what we have a chance to do here. If everything goes right we will knock this guy out. Bradley has noted how Pacquiao has not stopped a foe since Miguel Cotto in 2009 and has not won a fight inside 12 rounds since dropping Ricky Hatton nearly five years ago, helping rekindle the fires inside the 35-year-old Asian southpaw. Im not angry or disappointed at what he told me. Im happy he told me that, Pacquiao said. It inspired me to train harder and focus on the fight. It will benefit me. I have not lost the hunger. Sometimes we knock the guy out and sometimes not. Pacquiao said he sees no more need for a knockout than usual even after the controversial loss to Bradley in their first meeting. Were not focusing on the knockout, Pacquiao said. The focus is on being more aggressive, throwing more punches. If that outcome comes, its fine. I just want to prove that I can have the killer instinct. ◆========◆^^^Rich^^^◆========◆
