My controversial belief..... IMO Bradley beat Pacquiao

Trolling aside, I get that. Except that Bradley wasn't doing anything either. He was hitting Pac on the arms and gloves.
And all the while, Pac will respond with some left to the face or to the body and will be pushing the action.
You don't give the round to a boxer who get's in 2 jabs to the body and then receives 3 straight lefts to the face.

You can make a case for Bradley getting the better of the mid-late rounds, but that's that.
8-4 is the worst possible way that I can score this fight giving all close rounds to Bradley -- and Pac still winning it.

Fact is, you can't make a highlight reel for Bradley.
Because he got outlanded so bad.
The compubox data was also one sided:

Here's an actual screen capture to verify the above:

Sure you can say that compubox is not the end-all be-all of fights, but a compubox this lopsided pretty much tells you the story right there.

How you can say that a fighter who got outlanded NEARLY 2 TO 1 won the fight is beyond me.

 

I'm not one to just disregard punch stats but at one point at the end of maybe round 6/7 Pacquiao gets credited with landing a 20 punch combo when they show the replay you clearly see Pacquiao miss all but maybe 3/4 of thoses shots yet its still taillled as 20 landed shots. I think Pacquiaos best work came between rounds 3/4-9 after watching it so many times 1&2 as well as 10, 11, 12 are clear Bradley rounds to me after that all it takes is 1 round between 3 & 9 for it to be a draw.

 

There was one round where Pac landed 2 punches to 1, which was on TV with one of the damned criminal judges, that judges resigned right after that interview. The damned judges gave that round to Bradley, claiming that he fight fans knows nothing about boxing, esp. scoring a fight.........

 

Not exactly the shutout HBO was making it out to be:

acie2g, did you see my post? I'm still waiting to hear how you scored 4 & 6 for Bradley

 

This right here is the story of Pacquiao's most effective shots it was a close fight but he loss

 

Yea cpu died half way through round 6 been posting on the smart phone as for round 4 my play by play how I saw it.

Rd 4 opens with TB throwing two hooks a few seconds later he flicks a few jabs as range finders, Pac throws a straight left TB responds with two shots and pushes Pac into the ropes, Pac circles off and lands a hook of his own they clinch, immediately out the clinch TB lands two good body shots, they start to exchange noone really landing then Pac gets in a hard counter right, TB throws a few jabs they clinch again, they start in-fighting most of both there shots are smothered only noticeable land was a single TB body shot, they clinch TB lands a counter right then a counter hook as Pac flurries, the round ends with both exchanging Pac lands a hard straight TB lands a good hook. Bradley round

I'll finsh 6 when its back up

 

Nope ***** alt, Pac beat bradley and you know that.

 

Naw bro no alt an its a reason why Pacquiao ain't want that title back and why even after watching Bradley beat his tormentor in Marquez he still don't want that title back. Was a close fights but he lost the difference between the score I got June 2012 til now is 3 rounds and thinking bout how I scored the fight live that's probably rounds 1, 4 & 6

 

Bradley didn't win the fight, it was a robbery. BUT, I think it was closer than people say it was, people make out that it was damn near a shut out from Pacquiao but 8-4/7-5 is more like it IMO. I think Bradley adjusted well and won the majority of the late rounds, so much so that I wouldn't be surprised if he could legitimately beat Pacquiao in a rematch.

 

Your opinion is wrong. 99% of everyone believe Pac won the fight.

 

This is not competitive:

There's a hardly a close score there, and a ton of 11-1, 10-2, like Jeff Mayweather

 

Anybody who thinks Bradley won that fight is either an idiot, blind, or has an agenda.

It was a blatant robbery. People say Pacquaio missed punches, but what about the punches that Bradley threw that laned on Pacquaio's guard.

Or what about the times when Bradley missed terribly and was counterpunched with serious shots.

How many counters did Bradley land of any consequence?

Right...

I watched the fight the second time thinking that perhaps I missed something.

I was wrong. At most you could give Bradley 4 rounds.

I believe I gave him 3, but I wouldn't argue with 2.

 

Did you see Tim's body shots, or his ability to control parts of the fight with his jab or his defense? All of those should be considered into scoring a fight and not just landed shots or perceived landed shots.

What rounds did you give Tim?
