    I'm glad people are finally starting too wise up and see what a real piece of **** Bob Arum is.

    People are directing their anger at the wrong person. Bradley and his camp have absolutely NO leverage whatsoever on the disgraceful decision last night. However Bob Arum has monumental leverage and has been fixing fights for almost a half century.

    Why would Bob Arum fix this fight you ask? The bottom line is this. Bob Arum DOES NOT WANT PEDUIAO TO FIGHT MAYWEATHER. PERIOD! Peduiao is Bob Arum's #1 all time money machine. Do you honestly believe Arum wants to put an end to his personal ATM with a knock out loss to Mayweather? Arum is pulling out all the stops to stall any possible fight with Mayweather.

    In the meantime Bradley and Peduiao will haggle back and forth about a rematch for the remainder of the year (only six months left on the calendar). If, and it's a big if, Mayweather and Peduiao do get in the ring it certainly won't be in 2012.

    So you see, we'll have more endless drama of Mayweather vs Peduiao. You can thank Bob Arum for this grand ruse.

    Old news...

    New mayan calendar was located which is complete and much much longer... I was actually surprised as I really thought the mayans stopped counting but nope recenetly discovered one proves this false.

    its not as if the original had a note attached saying
    the world will end at the end of this calender :nut

    2012 was simply the year they would have to make a new calender

    How can you win a boxing match when:

    You land less punches in 10 of the 12 rounds.
    You get out landed almost 2 to 1 in the whole fight in powershots.
    You barely land an eyecatching punch all fight.
    You get stunned and nearly knocked down 4 rounds of the fight.
    You fight most of the fight going backwards.


    Other robberies in the past like oscar vs tito or whitaker vs chavez you could argue that the fighter robbed was retreating too much.

    Or in other fights like marquez Pac 3 you could argue that even though you landed the more eyecatching shots you did get landed overall.

    But this One. Round by Round Manny landed more shots, more power shots, more eyecatching shots, was the aggressor, stunned bradley on numerous occasions.


    That's why not a single part of me can see how Bradley won.

    I'd rank this worse than Lewis Holyfield 1.

    Why?

    JMM also said he was robbed in his 3rd fight with Pac. *******s didn't agree with him then, yet they agree with him now. Hypocricy, plain and simple.

    Let's just say he was a little biased against himself back then.

    Here's the full quote guys:

    Arum 'The decision I paid the judges for was a ridiculous decision. You guys all know who won this fight lol So let’s be honest about the situation. Hopefully we’ll revisit it in November, where I can make more money out of you suckers lol….I hope boxing recovers, because this isn’t arguing about a close decision. This is is something that’s an absurdity, that’s ridiculous, and everybody that’s involved in boxing should feel ashamed, I feel really bad right now, sorry guys lol'

    Ariza to everyone: It's all Bob's fault the fight isn't happening with Floyd. Manny doesn't deserve an even split.

    So Arum called Roach

    Arum: Freddie, how dare he? Fire him!

    Roach: No problem Bob. Manny doesn't like changing his preparation ... you know how superstitious he is ... so I'm going to bar Alex from being in the corner on fight night. Manny will see that he can live without him and we'll fire his ass after the fight.

    Arum: Thanks Freddie, I knew I could count on you.

    So the following day after training

    Roach: Look Manny, I know you like him but I've decided he's not needed in the corner. All of his work has been done during camp. Can you please tell him? I don't want him slapping me down like he did to Mickey.

    Pacquaio: Cool Freddie.

    So Pacquaio went to Ariza's place

    Pacquiao: Hey Alex, Freddie doesn't want you in the corner.

    Ariza: Tell Freddie he can go **** himself. If he cuts me from the corner I'm never giving you a special milkshake again.

    The next day at Wild Card

    Manny: Hey Freddie, I'm the boss. Alex will be in my corner.

    So Roach called Arum

    Roach: We've got a problem, Bob. Manny wants Alex to stay.

    Bob: Damn ingrate. (Hangs up)

    That afternoon, Arum held his usual pre-fight ritual of champagne & caviar with the 3 judges at his villa on the French Riviera

    Arum: Emmanual must lose. I don't care how ridiculous it looks, he cannot win a decision.

    3 judges: (in unison) No problem Boss, we'll take care of it. Do you want a unanimous, majority or split decision?

    Arum: Make it a close split decision, boys. That way there'll be more interest in a rematch. Are you guys free in November? I'll have another job for you.

    Bradley is a mere pawn in a much bigger game being played by Arum.
