Reminiscent of Hagler vs Leonard, but opposite decision.

    Pacquiao was taking too many rounds off to fight the last minute of the round. Bradley was game throughout the night, Bradley was not strong enough power-wise but his WILL won him the decision. I think in the rematch, Bradley will still win, he was coming in strong in the middle rounds and Pacquiao shots weren't phasing Bradley in the latter part of the fight. Screw job or not, it was closer than what you guys might think it is.

    7-5 Bradley! :bbb

    I agree with you, that is exactly what I saw. Also I think the element of surprise is gone for Pacquiao now so he doesn't have anything to rely on.

    I think Bradley now knows defensively how to take away Pacquiao's best punches just as Marquez has Pacquiao figured out. I think Pacquiao will never be able to outbox Bradley and can only win by KO or TKO.
