    I thought 11 was the clearest round for Tim....it could have been 10. Either way one clear round doesn't win you a 12 round battle. I agree....some people are seeing what they want to see. The VAST MAJORITY see reality....it's not even a proportional split between those who think the fight was close or for Bradley to those who KNOW PAC dominated.

    The jab and the pivoting was more to survive than to "WIN". Tim wasn't trying to win after round 3. He was doing enough to score some points with the jab and used his footwork to keep out of PAC's range....as the fight progress it got worse because Tim was tiring and he used more footwork....more jabs and less power punches.

    This ain't like DLH taking off the last 3 championship rounds in the Tito fight.....Yes...DLH was dominating that fight too but he literally did what Tim was doing in the last rounds....Jabbing...pivoting...staying away from Tito.

    None of those rounds were clear for Tim but maybe 12 would be the round where you could make a case. Tim just got dominated...period.

    let me say first off that it was pacs fault he lost that fight.he has gotten to much in this grove of laying back and letting his opponent come to him and just being happy with going to the scorecards.he is a different fighter than he was vs cotto or margo.now is it due to losing a step or just being lazy and wanting the easy win with taking little risk,i dont know.if you dont want to get robbed dont leave it in the hands of the judges,period.now lets talk about the score and the bradley "win",that fight was not close pac won every round almost.the most i would give tim is 4 rounds and thats pushing it big time.tim never hurt manny and what people call boxing in the last four rounds i call running away to avoid the ko.i dont get it jmm vs pac 3 was a toss up and i had it a draw but if jmm got the nod i would have been good with it.mayweather vs cotto was a way closer fight than tim vs pac and the judges gave floyd damb near every round,floyd was trapped in the corner most the fight and was getting outworked but they call it great defense.pac comes forward all night and huts tim many times ,tim throws more but lands less,pac lands a way higher connect pct than tim while being the aggresser.one more reason not to buy ppv boxing this will be my last.

    I've yet to see anyone here that scored it a draw or for Bradley that doesn't hold a personal grudge against Pacquiao.

    agreed there's been far worse this year alone. it was a bad robbery though- 116-112 for pac much like the marquez 3 fight was 116-112 for marquez.

    I agree no robbery here. It was a much closer fight than people make it out to be. I scored it a draw and think a healthy Bradley beats Pac going away in the rematch.

    That's it. Most people here thought Bradley had no chance at all and didn't even belong in the same ring as Pac. I was at a sports bar watching the fight and asked several people there who they were picking before the fight started all of them said Pac by early KO. Most people had no idea who Bradley was and even hardcore fans here who did still didn't give him a chance I knew and said all along before the fight that Bradley was going to give Pac hell.

    I scored the fight 9-3, so imo it was a huge robbery. I bet on Bradley but he really did nothing the whole fight.

    Actually A LOT of people were like the HBO crew at the beginning.....calling for the upset.....when PAC started off in full control the winds left the Tim Bradley sails and everyone witnessed the difference in class between the two. PAC was older and supposedly on the slide... It was suppose to be the perfect time for this young, Black, slick and undefeated American to "expose" PAC. The only one who got exposed was Tim....unfortunately. I like the kid but he didn't stand a chance... He showed a great chin and heart but he lost handily.

    Pacquiao Marquez 3 had the wrong guy winning. Marquez won that fight easy.

    Pacquiao Bradley had the wrong guy winning. Pacquiao won that fight easy.

    JMM vs PAC was competitive...Tim wasn't competitive at all with PAC. One was a close fight with an unpopular decision....the other a blatant robbery. Two different situations.
