    I don't think anyone liked how Pacquiao looked against Bradley in either fight. The Bradley fights always signified Pacquiao's prime ending. Yeah, you can start splitting hairs and saying Pacquiao's prime ended after De La Hoya or some **** like that, but I think it's more regarded that Pacquiao's prime ended in the first Bradley fight.

    Had one last hoorah before the Marquez KO, though. He looked awesome against Marquez. He brought the fire in that fight. Too bad he paid a huge price.

    Tim lost both times but they were both super close.

    The first time was hardly the dominant wide victory Pac's biggest supporters want to claim. Even those heavily-circulated media scorecard lists show that a good number of respected boxing people had it very close, in the 115-113 or 116-112 range. (the former being my score, and thus correct :D)

    I had Pac doing slightly better in the rematch (although Bradley had isolated moments that were better than his best moments the first time, if that makes sense*), at 116-112.

    ...but Pac has looked poo since, and Bradley has entered the Fireman's Holy Masonic Order and been Atlasized.




    *I think many are confused about this - Bradley "did better" in the rematch in that he got to Pacquiao in bursts that were more eye-catching than anything from their previous encounter, but scoring RBR on a 10-point must system the original bout was actually closer, if you can ignore that it was less dramatic and that Bradley affected Pac with his punches a little more - again, in tiny bursts - in the rematch. This kind of idea usually is too nuanced to not fly over most posters' heads..

    Agree with everything here, except the 115-113 score for the 1st fight.

    I had it 114-114.
