    There have been worst decisions that stood and BTW this was NOT the blowout that HBO cheerleaders Lampley or Lederfag portrayed it to be. Best thing for pac to is get a rematch and decisively whoop Bradley.

    And that is what should be stopped once and for all. no one gave a F about the Lara Vs Williams decision, but now everyone is on the case. It is time to change the system.

    The WBO can do whatever they want because they're corrupt, but I doubt even they would go so far toward ruining their credibility. They won't overturn a result unless they conclude that there was corruption or something bizarre like a miscounted scorecard.

    Usually in matters like this they order an immediate rematch. It's not THAT strong because they already had a rematch clause in the contract, but the WBO could maybe push it a little farther and say that Bradley can never fight for the WBO title again if he doesn't grant the rematch. I've never seen that done, though, and it's not that powerful of a threat.

    Numerous fighters get robbed and robbed alot worst than this, they don't get the decisions overturned, so whenever someone whines about the desicion, is there going to be a review, or is this only for Pac who BTW got a very generous decision over JMM in November.

    :lol: ****ing noobs think the decision will get reversed? Then hopefully they reverse the Pac/Marquez III verdict as well.

    You can't overturn the decision. It was a competitive fight

    I think the very best they can do (for this situation) is make it a ND which is ok on my end, I had it Pac 7-5 but the problem is past fights.

    The OPTIMAL method of action is to set up a board of review or some kind of checking system for FUTURE controversies. Maybe revolutionize the judging system, I dunno. You have to fix the root of the problem to get anywhere in this world

    It would be interesting if this became the era where boxing evolved with the scoring and testing n ****, but then again it would make future generations less comparable to the past but **** it its for the better :good

    Bradly clearly won the fight 9 rounds to 3 with his aggression alone. I wish people would stfu already and move on.

    That does not make this one right. If there were some governing body, with the power to overturn BAD decisions, it would make corrupt judging pointless. JMM Pac III should be looked at, just like Lara vs Williams. Lara's career was massively derailed, he would be far more ahead by now..
    Many fans and gamblers are literally robbed off their hard earned cash in case of bad or corrupt judging. This can not be right, we have the technology to overcome this problem. It is not the '50s anymore..
    Yeah I know it wont happen..

    Nothing will be done, that's why we do need a governing body over boxing. I would be shocked if the say it was a bad decision and order a rematch but didn't Pac have a rematch clause anyway?

    So what is the difference? Never again will I pay for a Top Rank promotion.

    you are opening up a can of worms if it's overturned. i can see ken norton coming out about his fights with ali. lennox lewis complaining about holyfield fight.
