    With all the tension in camp, and Pacquiaos contract with Arum nearing its end, maybe this was Arum and Top Rank trying to put their fighter in his place. Arum wasnt calling for the decision to be overturned, he wants the rematch. Those three judges have been working in the Arum circle for decades and there is no doubt in my mind that they are cozy with him. Theres a lot of questions surrounding this decision, but one thing that we do know is that it was the outcome that Arum wanted. This essentially kills the Mayweather fight, unless Manny decides to continue with Top Rank after his contract expires. Going into a Mayweather fight, he will make the most money if he stays with Top Rank and Arum knows this. Manny does too.

    What probably happend was that all the planets stood in a line, the universe stood in a angle that made gamma-drunk-rays shoot all over earth.
    This resulted in three rays hit the three officials and made them Drunk and ******ed.

    Now you might ask yourself, where did the rays come from? Beacuse I'm a trustworthy person I will tell you, from the Lizard people who lives in the centre of our galaxy in the blackhole that exist there.

    They are the ones that taught us mathematics and helped us build the Pyramids.


    Stop the conspiracy theories, I was just one of thoose things.

    "I'm not sure if it's accurate that Pacquiao was about to leave one of the kingpins of the sport, Bob Arum. His contract was running out. But I think it was. And when that happens, sometimes funny things happen. But the bottom line is, if you're an honest man, if you're a competent person that knows what he's watching, Pacquiao won that fight. Only one man won that fight. And, you know, he doesn't get the decision. It's an injustice to the sport, injustice to the fighters, injustice to the fanbase. It's one of the fallacies. It's one of the problems with the sport of boxing right now is that the wrong guy wins sometimes."

    ...

    "I think I touched on it a moment ago, the possibility that he might not be signing up with the power broker, Bob Arum. I mean, look, the worst thing you can say about the sport is it's either corruption or incompetence. If it's incompetence, that should be corrected. That the judges that control the destiny of these fighters, fighters that leave a part of themselves in the ring quite often when they leave the ring, like Frazier and Ali did in those great, epic fights. There's less of themselves when they leave that ring. That's a great responsibility, to make sure you get it right as judges. And a lot of times, unfortunately, the judges, they just don't get it right. They don't know what they're watching. In this case again, they don't know what they're watching, at the very best. Which is a sad thing to say, that at the best they didn't know what they were watching, and at the worst they were influenced by other outside forces."

    Wow, for once I 100% agree with Teddy. Hes spot on with this one.

    Atlas has spoken the most sense in all of this. Not suprisingly, he has been associated with Sammy "The Bull" Gravano and understands the reality of boxing unlike most commentators.

    i remember reading somewhere here that Juan Manuel Lopez doesnt want to renew his contract with Bob Arum. What bob arum do for his last fight? paired him up to Orlando Salido, a very strong fighter who goes to war against Juan manuel marquez. Arum seems have an inkling of his fighters weakness. But this time, Pacmans weakness are those judges LOL.

    Yes, yes, i agree with Teddy Atlas assesments, funny things happens when his fighters contract are running out.
