    Pac should retire after his rematch to Bradlley, I think he could win. He needs to learn how to cut the ring off, it is terrible. He shouldnt fight mayweather, Manny can't handle people who box him, he looks confused and only lands a couple single shots. I dont know what the punch stats prove, he wasnt really landing, in the second half of the fight, Bradley was landing more cleanly. But I think he loss. Regardless, he should by NO MEANS fight Mayweather... NOO. Based on their last two fights it is a bad idea. Mayweather is 100% the boxer of Bradley, stronger, more skilled, and bigger. He would probably dominate and may KO pac. not a good idea.. too big for pac.

    Well I'm stunned. I had it 7-5 for Pacquiao, I thought he won 2-8 and Bradley won 1 and 9-12. Neither guy looked good despite HBO's **** gobbling, But Pacquiao won that one. Maybe the judges got mad that he made them wait a ****ing hour.

    I was rooting for Timmeh, and scored it pretty close...115-113, but feel like this is ANOTHER kick in the balls for boxing. Bradley did not deserve to win the fight.

    Pac Should leave Bob Arum now.

    Maybe Ariza knocks him out.

    Compubox punchstats are two different guys pushing joysticks around, stop citing it as a legit tool.

    Jim Lampley is SO ANGRY.

    1st, Pacquiao's delay.

    2nd, Pacquiao loses and ****s up the HBO superfight.

    3rd, Kellerman subtly accuses Lampley, Merchant and Lederman of hysterical "group-think" in how they scored De la Hoya vs. Mosley II while using it as a comparison to this to illustrate the point about how a different seating vantage can give you a different perspective on the round by round scoring. (saying he and many at ringside scored that one for Mosley...while a quick survey of press row and others whose opinions he trusts tonight revealed that many did score it for Bradley).



    He needs to do some coke and punch some hookers in the face!!!!! :fire:fire

    Bradley lost that fight, but karma is a mother ****ing *****. Bradley cashed pac out big time. LMAO

    He never wanted the mayweather fight because he would have no stars left in his stable.

    Pacquaio completely took his foot off the gas from 6 on. Bradley boxed him well from there on in. Had it 6-6. Dunno what you're all whining about. Closer fight than the Marquez one.

    When Bradley was on the back foot, Pac struggled and was getting caught. If Timmy had fought the earlier rounds that way, he would have won going away. I thought it was a draw.

    Couple things:

    The furthest I could see dragging it Bradley's way would be a 114-114 draw. There were SEVERAL rounds, mostly early, where Pacquiao was visibly hurting him with straight lefts and keeping Tim from working in any kind of rhythm.

    That said, Lederman's 119-109 for Pacquiao was BULL**** and blatant cheerleading and probably misled any non-biased or casual fans who may have jumped on the robbery bandwagon immediately after the decision was announced. All the swooning over Pacquiao's footwork and punching power down the stretch obfuscated the fact that Bradley was slowly but surely beginning to be more effective, regardless of whether those CompuBox stats were accurate (and I suspect they weren't, entirely).

    This was honestly anywhere from a 115-113 to a 117-11 victory for Pac. Just going by how the rounds played out, even with some of them being potential swingers, I can't see 118-110, and I can't see Bradley winning.
