    How do you rate Pacquiao's win over Bradley in the rematch in light of the injury Bradley acquired?

    It happened during the fight, but it wasn't caused by a punch or directly by Manny.

    Do you think it was just a freak thing and Bradley got incredibly unlucky?

    I feel like Bradley's exaggerated head movement and pivoting squares him up to be vulnerable and puts stress on his legs feet ankles and is part of why he gets hurt

    Bradley was hurt early in this fight and still had it even after 6 and was still highly competitive in 10,11,12.

    I watched the replay on HBO on demand with the judges scores shown Rbr and if you count the different rounds given by those judges plus Lederman it was 6-6 or 7-5 Bradley

    Night of I thought Bradley was doing good and taunted his way out of the fight and or punched him self out

    It's clear he's injured at the end of 3 or 4 and Bradley limps or hobbles to his corner from 6 or 7 on with no notice by the HBO crew yet when watching it again it was so obvious

    there is a reason why Bradley always gets injured against pac its because pac brings so much speed power and intensity he does jerky crazy moves to avoid the shots

    Bradley was coasting. Without the injury he stops Pacquiao late

    Bradley hurt his feet in both fights by trying to turn n pivot with pacquiao. Kept him from getting ko'd but caused injury. Bradley says PAC has best footwork of anyone he's ever faced.

    Stupid comment. If brads hadn't turned so much trying to keep up with PAC he woulda been ko'd by PAC. It resulted in brads getting injured. You really think it's just a coincidence that he hurt his feet/ankles in both fights?

    I get that it seems more than a coincidence that he injured his legs in both fights (and not in any of his other 30 fights) but I would have been interested to see all 12 rounds without such a major injury. Supposedly he tore his calf in the first 2 rounds, and I thought it was still close up until round 6. I had it 3-3 halfway through.

    Hard to believe Bradley injured himself during the early rds; the first was about even, and Pac whooped him in the 2nd and third. What's Bradley's excuse for these rds ?

    Bradley was unlucky twice. He injured himself in the first Pac fight also. It's tough, but it's boxing. Maybe the adrenaline, and the hyperness of being on the big stage made him move in ways that his body didn't agree with causing the injuries. Bradley plain sucked in the rematch after doing well for four rounds. Fighting how he fought 5-12, it wouldn't of mattered whether he was injured or not. He threw the fight away.
