    PAC lack of activity is because of Bradley running. When Bradley stop they fight, when Bradley is on his bike what can PAC but just chase.

    It's basically been proven by consensus that there are seven rounds people question in terms of Pacquaio being effective and having a high enough work rate to be considered effective.

    Bradley worked every single round, so it doesn't matter if he wasn't "clean and effective" - the fact is that Pacquaio wasn't clean or effective either due to his lack of workload.

    1, 2, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12 = All rounds that people tend to agree Pacquaio was not overly effective in. That's not to say Bradley was any more effective - I gave Pacquaio 2, 6, 7 and 9 but those rounds were not "clear dominant" rounds for Pacquaio.

  5. And proven by consensus this fight was one of the biggest robberies/scams ever.

    No, that's simply bandwagon and hype - the fact that these people who all cry robbery all give Bradley different rounds when they analyse the fight should tell you something about their ability to judge a fight.

    " I found 18 reporters of varying reputation that scored the fight round-by-round. Here’s how many of those people gave each round to Bradley."

    Problems with this post.

    1. He did not state his sources, therefore there is no way to actually identify the veracity of his claims around which rounds were given to Pacquaio and which rounds were given to Bradley

    2. Boxing is not scored on probability, the probability over the entire fight that "Bradley wins" isn't really the question. It's the possibility that seven rounds exist where reasonable doubt remains on whether Pacquaio clearly won them ( even in your unverified source, there are 6 rounds which are 25% or more which indicates reasonable doubt)

    3. The wild spread of how people who had the same scoreline (119-109) was exposed by me in this thread, where I pointed out that amongst 7 outliers who all believed Pacquaio dominated the entire fight, there were six different rounds that had been awarded to Bradley, indicating even amongst those who felt Pacquaio dominated, there was little to no consensus on the rounds in which Bradley did well/Pacquaio didn't do well.

    Unlike your post, I actually state my sources - there is veracity to the way I've done it and all I've argued is that the fight was not a dominant win for Pacquaio. You'll also see me state I felt Pacquaio should have won and that it was a bad decision.
