    Excellent decision, Tim was a great fighter,
    legit in every way but most of his later fights,
    because of his style, he deteriorated fairly
    quickly. Good to see him get out the game
    before he gets damaged by a younger gun

    Great Boxer. Never backed down from a challenge. Always gave his all. Happy for him and his team.

    Yep! Hell of a fighter! I'm surprised many people didn't consider him for Mayweather... I think he could've done well.

    Not just Pac fans. He got a lot of hate from his own hometown fans as well. These morons don't seem to understand that it wasn't his fault that the judges gave him the decision. Thank god his loving wife snapped him out of it.
    He's one of nicest, most honest and likeable guys in boxing.

    Good for Bradley. Always one of my favorites. He had a great career, set himself up for life and left it all in the ring. Thanks for the great fights, Desert Storm!

    He's got a future in broadcasting and/or training... he made good money and there's no fight out there that will pay what he got pre-Pac fights... so he'd just be taking years off his life.

    He could probably still do some damage in his division, win another belt.. but he's done enough to financially set himself up.

    It was mostly Pacquiao fans which is why Horn and his wife are receiving exactly the same treatment. And Manny is equally culpable since all he has to do is say stop and all the threats of violence would abruptly come to an end.

    The truth is, Manny secrectly loves the fact he can fall back on excuses and his fans will do the fighting for him outside of the ring.

    I find Timothy really boring to listen to with regards to commentary. Out of all of the boxers, they picked Bradley lol.

    How old are you kid and how do you know the truth about MP's secrets? Talking like everyone of his fans are making death threats and he got control over them. Beat it punk.

    Are you talking to me, troll?

    Manny is literally seen as a God amongst men by his fans,. One utterance from his mouth commanding them to stop and his word would have been done. He could tell them to set themselves on fire and they would race to find the nearest box of matches to be the first to light themselves up.

    Horn and his wife, til this day are being bombarded daily with harassment and Manny's pacdroid fans won't be satisfied until their torments causes something tragic to happen to them.

    Manny pretends to take defeat gracefully in front of the camera's, behind the scenes he is fuelling the fire to his conspiracy theorists, by filing compliments to the sanctioning bodies and calling for investigations to be held surrounding the fight.

    You won't be here very long with your mouth.

    You are the one who needs to learn basic English and grammar, your paragraph is littered with errors and spasticity.

    And FYI, Pacquaio was the one who begged the WBA to investigate alongside the requests from the AB and PG.
