    I thought it was a good fight, and I thought it was fairly close. I gave 5 rounds to Tim.

    The problem I have is in the way fights are scored. The rounds that I gave to Pac (rounds 2-5 for example), those are undisputable rounds to me, compared to say rounds 1,6,8 and 12 which I gave to Bradley which I thought Bradley won, but wasn't as obvious as rds 2-5 for Pacquiao. The flaw is that there is no credit given for a round that was obviously won by a fighter, and a close round.

    I thought the wrong guy won because, as a whole, Pac dominated better than Tim did. Looking forward to the second fight.

    Yea first time I scored it 11 rounds to 1 for Pacman, but rewatching it had it 7 to 5 for Bradley. To be honest, perhaps a draw might of been fair. Rematch in order and also looking forward to it. Timmeh looking awful comfortable at 147 tho. He's more versatile than Manny that's for sure.

    11-1 was a laughable score really. It was a close-ish fight but pacman won. (or should have). I think this time it'l be different though, bradleys a smart fighter, he won't make the same mistakes... pacquiao fights one way and he won't change much. I think bradleys lack of power will be pac's downfall, he'l open up knowing he can't be ko'd but this will leave holes for bradley to pick.

    11/1 your crazy with that one I had it 8-4 Pac fight night personally but have since scored it 7-5 as well I always felt 10-12 were pretty clear Bradley rds I think rds 1, 3, 4, & 7 are rds I scored different on replay.

    It was definitely not a shutout like 11-1. I had Pac winning comfortably at 8-4. I could see it being 7-5 or 9-3, but not close enough for a draw.

    2 factors though. Bradley injured his ankle, and Pac only fighting the last minute of each round. Interesting to see what the rematch will be like without those two factors.

    I scored the first fight 115-114 Bradley, and that was a greener Bradley with an ankle-injury and before Pac got KTFO by Marquez.
    Go figure who I take in the rematch.
    But they will probably rob him anyway...

    Bradley needed a KO to win going into the 10th. Running for your life from and opponent and throwing a jab here and there with quick flurry is not winning a round...that's call running like a *****.

    In one round where Pac landed 2 punches to Bradley's one, the judges gave it to Bradley! One of the judges resigned. Did Void tell the judges to give the fight to Bradley? If Pac lands one good punch on Bradley, he will have Bradley in trouble. Provodnikov left Bradley on the canvas and the judges still gave it to Bradley. Bradley's judges are idiots...........

    Bradley won rounds 1-3
    Pacquiao won rounds 4-12

    In my opinion... Glad the rematch is happening.

    All I could give Tim was two rounds at best. Can't understand how anyone managed to give him more than three rounds.

    no way you can give the last 3 rounds to pacquiao, no way you can give bradley round 3 in my opinion.

    rounds 3,4,6 were the only clear pacquiao-rounds in the fight.
    rounds 7,10,12 were the only clear bradley-rounds in the fight.

    rounds 1,2,5,8,9,11 were all swing-rounds that could've gone either way imo, depending on what you are looking for.
    I scored the first 2 for Bradley, as well as the 11th, and I had one of the rounds in between even, so it cummulated to a 115-114 for bradley.

    Notice a parttern? Only people who recently joined and with low post count ssupposedly "scored the fight for Bradley" or think that "It was a very close fight".

    Go figure people.

    More 10-8 rounds?

    If you edge a round you get a 10-9.

    If you clearly, without question, win the round you get a 10-8.

    If you beat the other guy from pillar to post the entire round you get a 10-7.
