    You think they rather have Bradley holding their strap, or Manny Pacquiao

    They can't can't overturn the decision, think of the mess it would create in Vegas with all the gambling on the fights. Some people made a lot of money off the fight others lost money on it, overturn the decision and what happens? Do they have to refund losses and demand winnings back? Would be a compleat cluster fuk, I find it amusing that with all the bad decisions in boxing why the big fuss over this one. Do a rematch or not but lets move on to the next fight.

    It sucks to be Bradley, you won but everyone says you lost. Bradley is probably a bigger victim then Pacquiao, is this going to hurt pac? Not really he will still be a ppv king superstar. Only hurts him in negotiations with Floyd but he will still make bank if they ever fight.

    Bradley has become Kanye versus Taylor, the big mean black man stole the young white girls innocence. But this isn't the case, he didn't do anything wrong. Its like if someone robbed a bank and drop the cash off on u and everyone knows you're innocent but blames you. It's a morally case do you give the money back even tho you can keep it legally? I think he needs to do some damage controll because the fans maynot let him off the hook ever.

    Not that I disagree with what you are saying, but what do they do now when a fight is ruled a no contest later down the road? Vegas gambling really shouldn't drive the sport either way.

    I agree with gambling shouldn't have influence. Just speculation on my part, but they stated from the beginning they weren't going to overturn the decision or even had the power to do so according to the WBO rules. I think the best they could do is vacate the title and call for a rematch, but their not even going to vacate the title. Looks like a rematch but I'm not sure if that fight makes Business sense for top rank, I guess we'll have to wait n see. Manny said he wants a rematch, Bradley too. We'll see what happens.

    Not really, they can't change the official results. But if foul play was involved punish the guilty hopefully or at least find a scapegoat.

    The WBO makes the WBA look good. Shame on the WBO for even reviewing the fight. It was a close fight. Bradley is the deservingh champion. Just shows what a **** orgazition the WBO really is.

    There is a reason the WBO was always the 4th best organization.

    This is just ugly Andy incompetent and plain embarrassing to the sport. I'm sure PAC doesn't want to win like this and Bradley sure as hell is feeling disrespected and shitty right now. Just an all round **** go. It just enflames and condenses the problem. Cluster **** is an apt description used earlier to describe the situation.
