    Yes its not as if the HBO suddenly became inaccurate when commentating on a fight. They've been one eyed many times before.

    What makes this video good is they show bradley landing as well and was less bias in its editing.

    Pacs D was great in this fight..excep the time Tim turned southpaw on the 10th or 11 round for a few seconds lol.

    Many of the shots that Manny throw did not land. I gave rounds 6 & 7 Bradley for clean effective punching.

    For example in the 6th round, Bradley landed 3 jabs that you can obviously see, two big counter-right hands, two body shots, an uppercut, and a huge left-hook at the 12 second mark (best punch in that round).

    Pacquiao in the 6th round didn't land anything cleanly other than two right hooks to the body.

    The 7th round more of the same except Pacquiao was missing a lot more and Bradley was landing a lot more.

    I gave Bradley rounds 1, 6, 7, 10-12. So the fight is a draw. It was a really close fight. Maybe round 8 could have been a draw.

    I agree completely. I feel Bradley won more rds than Pac or 6 a piece at the lest, but since Pac landed the more effective blows and seemed unfaded (for the most part) by Bradley's punches, I can see why people would let the champ keep the belts. Nevertheless, it was far from a robbery.

    Now Chavez-Whitaker , thats another story:cool:

    I watched the third round again, and the video is right, hardly any of the straight lefts that Pacquiao threw didn't land at all, except the one in the end of the round.

    I actually gave that round to Bradley because he landed more clean punches.

    That was a very nice video Hofbrau.
    Not as biased as those two jerks so many listen too.

    No body has given credit to Bradly for doing a very good job.
    Boxers seldom get any credit.

    I don't know who won, but the judges said Bradly did, and from the 'biased' video, there are a lot of folks who see what they want too...no matter what.

    Well, It took me 5 times looking at Norton-Ali decades later to give that last round to Ali.
    Everyone has rose colored glasses.

    Even if you think Pacquiao was slightly robbed, you may be right...but it was only slightly.

    Yes, sir. You are correct.

    These fan boys and band-wagoners are amusing though.

    Even if Manny gets the win his win was GREATLY exaggerated,a lot of shots were close and didn't connect,while Bradley did good body work,but people judge fights on "who hits harder I guess" and the trigger happy compubox

    It's entertaining to see their composure collapse when they're confronted with irrefutable evidence that they find so disconcerting they resort to rhetoric and/or produce the same links and quotes representing the bias and resulting band-wagon effect that confirms their ignorance and delusional obsessions.

    Bradley did a very good fight, but he lost the fight by a close margin
