    116-112 Pacquiao. I could see 117-11. Going the other way, I could see 115-113 or MAYBE a draw. (not a win for Bradley...and no wider than 117-111 for Pac)

    I'm a huge PAC fan but wasn't really affected with the decision. I don't know why. :lol:

    It isn't that I agree with decision, I have PAC winning by comfortable margin 116-112.

    Official judges' scoring?

    Well, Roth had it only a round tighter than me..

    As for Ross & Ford, I thought they were a bit too generous to Bradley considering how many early rounds he was hurt in during the 1st half.

    All three cards were fantastic compared to the extreme ends of the spectrum - Lederman/Lampley/Steward's near-shutout for Pac, or Bama's near-shutout for Bradley.

    It wasn't nearly a shutout for anybody. It was IMO a "close but clear" victory for Pac, in the 116-112 or 115-113 neighborhood. 117-111 if you really favored the snap of those left hands. A draw if you were highly partial to Bradley's jab and body shots. 118-110 or wider for Pacquiao and 115-113 or wider for Bradley are out of bounds, to me.

    Bradley did really win, he has the shinny new WBO WW championship belt to prove it. I bet he sleeps with that mother****er tonight :lol:

    Arum was ecstatic in congratulating Bradley after the fight. This is all a front. He's just saving face. He fixed this all. Little doubt that Arum did this. Incompetence is possible, but in a big fight in Vegas with the money maker not getting the decision? The starlet of boxing losing? Arum knows Pac is either leaving or is getting his hand at a rematch. He knows Pacs best days are behind him so why not give it to a younger, up and coming fighter.

    Bradley won, it's called boxing. Bradley gassed in the middle rounds and had poor body body language because he was gassed from coming in too intense. When Bradley was slipping shots it looked like they were landing to uneducated eyes. Bradley jabbed, moved and responded when he needed to and landed combinations to the body all night. I was surprised it was so close, I've heard that HBO were very pro Manny so maybe you should rematch it with the sound down and remember that a round is scored based on the whole round, not who did the most damage by landing 2 grazing punches while getting outboxed and outpointed.

    Which? It wasn't worse than any of the 3, IMO.

    Very

    He's done it his whole life. It's second nature to him at this point. It reminds me of a great Senfield episode where Jerry asks George how he can beat the lie detector test. George responds by saying, "It's not a lie if you don't believe it."
