    I had it 119-110. It was not a close fight and had maybe 3 close rounds. Most posters on here change their score based on what happens after a fight. I believe Pacquiao still has more than enough left to repeat the job convincingly.

    Agree with most of what's being said, rounds Bradely won were subtle, where rounds Pacquiao won were easier to judge. As far as Manny's KO loss having a negative effect, I think the brutal war Timmy had with Provodnikov had a more negative impact on Tim. He had brain damage months after that fight, the kind you don't ever truly recover from.

    Manny's age could be a big factor here, impacting his reflexes and stamina, but Tim might crack when he starts taking big shots this time. Unlike Marquez, Manny will be able to track down and connect on Tim, if there's residual damage from the Provodnikov fight Tim could be stopped.

    No matter how I slice and dice it, Pac won that fight by at least 2 rounds. 7-5 pac is the closest I can go.

    I know how fights are SUPPOSED to be scored. I'm saying it isn't happening. IMO about 50% of round 1s are 10-10 because nothing happens. Judges don't score even rounds either. When is the last time you saw a 10-8 with no KD or 10-10 for an even round? Hardly ever. The system is in place, but it isn't being enforced.

    If you looked at Bradley vs Pacman 1 without bias then you know I was a Close fight.

    Hauser, Kenny...
    I've been watching boxing my whole life son, you want to tell me I don't know how to score a fight?
    Maybe 98% of the people DKSAB, and believe what HBO tells them to believe...ever thought about that?
    A scorecard giving Pacquiao 10 or 11 rounds is way more out of this world and a clear cut sign that you don't know how to score a fight.
    But yeah, you know your stuff, while guys like Hauser don't know what they're talking about :rofl
