    Tim never stumbled from a Manny punch, their feet got tangled or they banged their heads together.

    Bradley was keeping Manny off balance with his movement, catching him with hooks and circling out when Manny tried to engage.

    HIs body work is why Manny had no gas at the end as well, but people ignore that and would rather believe the story that it was Manny choosing not to do anything. This is false.

    All that with 2 broken feet.

    How does a guy clearly win by hardly landing any punches?

    Bradley was active the whole fight and Pac started to take off for the beginning half of the middle to later rounds

    He landed some shots on Bradley but they didn't bother him too much

    Thats the only rationale I can come up with for giving the decision to Bradley

    Majority of writers - Think Pac won
    Majority of fans - Think Pac won
    The trainers Ive seen comment on it - Think pac won (including mayweathers dad :lol:)
    Majority of fighters - Think Pac won


    But yes.... none of them were actually watching the fight they were just looking at pac :lol:

    Ok

    Oh I know, it was close. After the fight I talked a lot of **** towards Bradley and I'd like to take it back. He fought a good fight, very awkward and tricky fighter and no one will out hustle or out train him. I scored it 7 - 5 Pacquiao (had it much more in Pacquiao's favour at first and didn't actually score RBR), so it was definitely close. But what I call a clinic is what Ward did to Dawson, or Froch over Bute, where the winner faces little resistance. Both Pacquiao and Bradley were in the fight.

    Respect to Bradley though, I'm even ok with the win now. Look forward to seeing him in action again.

    The majority of fans thinking Pac won is pure speculation, and not backed by any evidence. HBO polls don't count, as they have already shown they will go above and beyond to corruptly support a money fighter.

    Why don't you show the body punching the Bradley landed after that because he clearly wasn't hurt?

    You have eyes dont you? as long as you can score a fight you can see its not a domination or anything but pac won the fight 116-112 style, even 115-113 if you want but closer and its becoming foolish, kind of a similair outcome as jmm had in the fight 3 on most peoples cards, its just common sense.

    Bradley is 100% right. He won that fight hands down. I've always had great eyes for watching sport, I catch quick things happening in real time that others seem to miss. I was shocked when I saw that people had Pac winning the fight. Pac spent most of the fight just missing Bradley with punches, the compubox numbers were way off and the commentators were calling missed punches by Pac as flush shots. I thought Marquez 3 was closer than this fight. I have zero doubt in my mind that Bradley was the rightful winner against Pac.
    Being in the minority just shows me how easily people can allow bias and preconceived notions about a fighter to influence their scoring. I didn't care about the outcome of the fight as I'm not a fan of either guy.

    Wasn't a fan of either guy either and I couldn't believe what was going on around me after the fight. Was posting the whole way through IB's RBR and was calling it close, knew Bradley was right in it. Some of the scores I've seen talked about here really makes me wonder how much boxing knowledge the majority of posters have. Jim Lampley is a disgrace and should be fired for his blatant bias. "I counted 3 booms!" - All of which missed. And that was the case all night. I have no doubt he influenced many, many people into thinking it was completely one sided. Bias commentary like that, just another thing to add to the massive list of problems within boxing.

    Probably more then normally would, too see him lose. Just like most do for Mayweather who has mastered the art of getting the paying customers to hate his guts, and pay their money to hopefully see him get his ass whipped :deal

    :deal I had Bradley winning 115-113. Pac was not landing the way CompuBox or the HBO crew were doing their damnedest to try to make us believe.

    I wish I could sit down and watch this fight again with some of you who feel Pac not only won but dominated. It was a close fight, Manny didn't nearly come close to landing what HBO and CB would suggest. And it would be nice to see where all these landed shots happened that y'all keep talking about.
