    And this whole Pac is popular therefore gets biased commentary from hbo is a joke. Often, Pac demolishes his opponents, so when he’s not doing that, he gets called out much more so than if he wasn’t popular. If a fighter even puts up a little bit of a fight, they get the benefit of doubt to be awarded that round.

    Keep clutching at straws.

    LOL you're really doubling down on this aren't you. You stated Bradley said he scored it a draw, but that's not what he said after the fight itself or after he rewatched it. After he rewatched it he said he believed he won.

    Now you're saying years later before the 3rd fight there's a quote where he admitted it was a draw, well that's a little different than what you were implying now isn't it? (out of curiosity can you link that quote?) And even if he did say that years later that he scored it a draw, that doesn't prove that it was a robbery. Bradley never argued that he won the fight clearly, he obviously was aware of how close it was and how many people thought Pacquiao won.

    Whether you think it was a close fight or a robbery is a matter of opinion, but it was definitely not as one-sided as many continue to claim it was.

    One of the most disgusting robberies. I stopped watching boxing for a while after this fight.

    Looking at the scorecards, all 3 judges had Pacquiao ahead at the mid-way point. 59-55, 58-56, 58-56. But then 2 judges had Bradley winning 5 out of the last 6 rounds, the other judge had Bradley winning 4 out of the last 6.

    BTW C.J. Ross was one of the judges that had Bradley winning lol.
