    Great fight with a brilliant story and a fitting ending.

    A rematch will take place so everyone should stay happy in that circle.

    Bradley came he stood toe to toe and fought well with a broken ankle(or something). He fought like a warrior and came on strong at the end like he said he would.
    Pacquiao entertained as usual and showed he has the power to trouble the best of fighters and should excellent hand and foot speed at times.

    It was close, I thought a split decision either way or a draw would have been fair.

    A rematch? Maybe, I prefer to see Pacquiao vs JMM 4 and Bradley vs A top 147 fighter.

    Fitting ending? You mean Pacquiao getting robbed?

    That fight yesterday made me gag all my beer after I heard the decision. Ruined the sport for me

    I didn't think it was a robbery mate, I want to see the fight again so I can post my scorecard.

    Some people think Manny won 9+ rounds, I wouldn't even bother talking with them to be fair.

    Sorry, but I don't know how you see it as a draw or an SD. 99% of the public thought he won. I thought he won clearly and easily.

    That was a disgraceful decision, but tell me what your score is when you get a chance to watch it. I can't even watch something that makes me sick to my stomach.

    ****ing disgrace. People have their tongues so deep inside Pac and Floyd's asses that they do a disservice to boxing. Marquez got robbed and now Pac got robbed. Boxing is becoming a ****ing joke.

    Come on now, you know your ****, you cant tell me it was a robbery?

    I thought Bradley was in the fight throughout. Yes Pacquiao did dominate in the middle rounds, but Bradley started each round very well and also was bright in the early stages. He also excelled towards the end and showed great resiliency whilst Manny didn't do much for the last 4 rounds.

    All in all it was close, if Manny won by split decision I would have been happy, but it was Bradley's night for me.

    I will watch it again though.

    If you thought it was a close fight, you know nothing about boxing. Go and watch another sport. It was in no way a "fitting ending", unless you have Down Syndrome and think Bradley won more than 3 rounds.

    There is a greater argument for a complete shut out than there is for Bradley winning 4 rounds.

    Yes, I do know my ****, and like 99% of writers, reporters, boxing fans and anyone else involved, thought Pacquiao won handily. It was a robbery.

    The only reason you're probably arguing this is all your pre-comments of how Bradley was going to beat Pacquiao.

    To think that it could have been a draw or an SD is a joke. A joke, and if you can't see that, then you need to get checked, mate.

    This was Arum's blatant doing. Body language talks. They know who won. And for you to have a picture of Bradley hitting Pacquiao, says it even more that you're bias, but I don't need to tell you that.

    Tell me your scores after, anyway. I'm sure they'll be..... interesting.
