    Whether you were in favor or not, the fact that there is an L on his record to Bradley is still pretty mind blowing and hilarious considering that was not supposed to happen in a million years.

    They basically use Bradley by signing him up for Top Rank as an opponent and an opponent only for pac , yet ends up coming out with a win over him :lol:

    ****ing top rank

    :lol: man it was great. I can't believe they would rob Pac for Bradley.

    I was sitting on the couch watching it at my cousin's house and I didn't hear any of the scorecards, but I knew they were reading them off. Then I see the camera zoom in Bradley and I just jumped out my seat cheering :happy

    Paybacks a *****

    If you're a true boxing fan, or into the technical aspects of it, you'll recognise that some of the work Bradley did was excellent. Particularly his exceptional head movement, impressive combinations and effective jab that he pinged through Pacquaiao's high guard with regularity, especially in the later stages of the fight. Pisses me off that he gets no credit or respect, just because he was handed the W over Pacquiao, which wasn't quite deserved, despite how well he did. If it hadn't been Pacquiao losing out, very few here would give a ****. But because it's the second coming himself, everyone's up in arms. All the kid Bradley did was go in there and fight the best he could, and with more success than people realise. Ain't his fault two of the judges got it wrong. He didn't pay anyone off. If you've got hate on a personal level for Bradley because of that fight, you're no boxing fan.

    I laughed out loud myself. I thought it was closer than at least what hbo had it. I knew bradleys slaps still counted as a punch and thus higher work rate for Bradley.

    * HBO poll shows 91% believe Pacquiao beat Bradley.

    Pac was active though?

    He outworked Bradley, even on agression as he was the one bringing the fight.

    My rule of thumb is 1punch is the same as a powers shot no matter how soft it is..

    Aggression can be tempered if your not landing anything.

    Pac didn't land enough shots period to even complain. He created more air conditioning than Sammy Sosa in a five strikeout night. Can't even land more than two or three shots a round, Pac doesn't have a reason to complain.

    Actually, a helluva lot of people were picking Bradley by upset.

    The fact that Pacquiao actually did beat him, shows why he's elite, and a guy like Bradley is not.

    Wait we have to pretend that Manny won every second of every round,and act as if Manny of old is back.... Well that night was a happy night because Manny got a dose of his own medicine,he felt he won and didn't get decision..

    Even better Manny and his fans don't even want him to redeem himself,but if he gets another gift decision he will have to see Floyd or Bradley,unless he goes after Hatton!
