    hmm says . . .

    You just found out Lampley makes lots of missed/ bias calls? (ES as well)
    Shiet, he's been doing it for decades . . .
    I had the fight 117-114 for Pac (HBO commentators or not)

    You can't just go off the highlights of one person . . . I'm sure the WBO review from the international judges were smart enough to not follow the commentary . . .

    This video is indeed a mixture of incompetence and bias within the world of boxing that needs to change . . .
    It also shows that some TB fan has way too much fukken time :)

    Because if "the majority" was truely less evolved subhumans brainwashed by HBO they would not have scored for Marquez.

    Easy enough to figure out.

    Bradley's score = 114. So 6 Pacquiao won rounds. (120-114=6). Pacquiao's score = 117. So 3 Bradley won rounds (120-117=3).

    6-3-3 to Pacquiao.

    He scored three even rounds.

    The point here is:

    If you were one of those people watching who everytime the crowd cheered a punch or flurry and everytime Lampley claimed a missed punch by Manny scored then I can see how you had Pacquiao dominating.

    But if you were one of those who actually paid close attention to what was REALLY HAPPENING in the ring (not what HBO was commentating or NOT commentating in regards to Bradley) and not influenced by the crowd, then I can see why you would have the fight close and competitive, a draw or for Bradley.

    Honestly a full fight minus the the bias commentary and 1 sided highlights should be made readily available, with a round by round breakdown & discussion from bryant kenny and an HBO nutthugger on how the rounds went and should've been scored, instead we got was a complete slanting of the fight from cheerleader Lampley.

    That's how I watched it the first time. No commentary....all I heard was music and a house full of fight fans talking ****.

    Watching it again with commentary I saw the exact same fight. I'm not one of these guys who lets someone else tell me what I'm seeing.

    The commentary matched what was happening in the fight.

    Take a look at any broadcast team...HBO, SHOWTIME or ESPN....whenever there's a one sided fight like the PAC vs Timmy fight the commentary is ALWAYS one sided.

    Not because they are fanboys or nut huggers....just because one guy is getting dominated and it's hard to praise the one getting the business. Tim was game...he was durable and he didn't quit even though he wasn't winning the fight. The HBO crew found something positive to say about Tim even though he wasn't on level with PAC in any area.
     
  15. The only way to score the Bradley@wheelchair fight was Pacquiao winning 7 rounds or more and same for JMM. if u did not then logoff troll.
    Juanita just cant beat Pacquiao, never has never will no need for IV.
    And I thought on roids he had his worst of the three vs Pac.
