Bradley gets two gifts in a row. How in the ****.

How so? If a KD is ruled, the guy falls down then gets up wobbly, supported by the ropes, he's liable to get stopped anywhere.

 

the unluckiest lucky ******* in boxing history

 

So you want to talk about the "actual" scores when it suits you, but you want to mix in you interpretation when needed...makes sense. If we are making **** up, you can have your knockdown and ill change the two official scorecards to properly reflect Bradley winning the 11th round and we will be all square and you can STFU. If we aren't manipulating actual events then Bradley won, so either way youre bitching about nothing.

 

He won close fights.

 

:rofl well stated!:deal

 

Bradley didn't win the 11th roung though. He lost that round, pitter patter nothingness to clean effective hurtfull shots.

 

It was a close fight I gave the edge to braldey coming in but thought you could make a case for ruslan in my opinion(by a round or two).He was the aggressor & clearly landed the more effective punches.At worst a draw the ref should've called kd in 1st rd.

 

You are being a little **** here is proof that he was pushed down and NOT knocked down

Look he was hurt from a big right hand his legs were not under him I agree, but watch the video I just posted, that shot did not put him down, he was pushed down well after that shot when he moved to the inside to try and tie Ruslan up.

You cant just say well his legs were wobbly, no he was on his feet until he was pushed down the video clearly shows that

 

I don't have a huge problem with him getting either decision, honestly.


I had him losing to Pacquiao, scoring it 115-113 Pac. Pretty tight, same as Roth. Ford and Ross had the same score flipped, a shift of a couple of points. Not a huge leap.

People act like Pacquiao losing to Bradley was akin to Abril losing to Rios or something. It wasn't. MUCH closer match with more grey-area rounds, and the more defensible verdict.


I had him narrowly beating Provodnikov 114-113, and of course with the knockdown correctly awarded would've had it a draw 113-113.


So if the judges and referees had seen everything my way, he'd be 0-1-1 in his last two.

:conf Oh well.

There have been thousands of decisions in boxing worse than both.

 

I was rooting for Ruslan but I had Bradley winning 114-113. close fight, but Ruslan gave up too many rounds in the middle. If the knock down in the first had been called correctly it was a draw.

 

People act like that cause that's how they saw it. You saw it another way, a far minority opinion on press row, remember?

Again, it was scored 117-111 on average. That's much like Rios Abril, and a touch wider than PWill Lara, and Cloud Campillo especially. Much wider than Sturm Macklin, or any of Adamek's NBC decisions.

 

Irrelevant point.

You're essentially arguing that a majority is automatically correct by virtue of being a majority.


Also, regardless of the RBR scoring, the nature of Abril's deserved rounds taken against Rios (schooling him in humiliating fashion) is completely different from the nature of Pacquiao's deserved rounds taken against Bradley. At no point was Pacquiao severely outclassing or embarrassing Bradley.
