Tim Bradley vs Manny Pacquiao 2014: 'Desert Storm' a student of boxing; Well prepared for Pacman, knew about Marcos Maidana before anyone else? [VIDEO]

)

Timothy Bradley may be the underdog vs. Manny Pacquiao despite owning a victory over him and still having a zero in his loss column, but "Desert Storm" will be prepared when he steps inside the squared circle on April 12th.

Freddie Roach predicts KO win for Pacquiao?

"Dude, I'm a student, man. I watch all these cats, man. I'm looking at everybody," Bradley said. "That's all I do, man. Everybody that's around my weight, I got a game plan, for you. I check out everybody, man. If you got a video on YouTube, I probably done seen you already because I go through those ranks; I gotta see who's trying to creep up and take my spot."

Bradley won a very controversial decision over Pacman in 2012, and the backlash turned his biggest victory into something resembling a setback. He has re-established his credentials with back-to-back victories over Ruslan Provodnikov and Juan Manuel Marquez though, and believes his preparation and study will come in handy. In fact, he claims to have known about Marcos Maidana way before he was deemed fit to face Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Will Pacquiao spar with Miguel Cotto?

"I knew Marcos Maidana before anybody knew Marcos Maidana because he had some stuff on YouTube. I checked the ranks out; I seen his record and I was like, let me see if this name got stuff on YouTube," Bradley told Fighthype.com. "So then I youtubed him and I was like, aw man, this dude's a wrecking ball; this dude is just coming and he's a straight brawler."

During promotions for the big rematch Bradley has grown bold, questioning whether the legendary Pacman still has his "killer instinct." He talked more crap to Fighthype.com when informed there was new footage of a quick and powerful looking Pacuquiao on the mitts.

"That's good. He's gonna need it," Bradley said. "Yeah, everybody is like, "Oh, Pacquiao says he's going to be the Pacquiao of old." Well s**t, where has he been? Thank you. Great! Fantastic! You know, that s**t don't bother me, man. I don't care what people say. You know, it's going to be me and him in the ring fighting."
