    Directing this only at those fans that hate Bradley for not giving the belt to Pac after their fight.

    Let me start by saying this, Bradley vs Pac from an unbiased viewpoint was a close fight. No matter which way you want to slice it. Next to JMM, Bradley was the only fighter to challenge Pac in years.

    Both fought a heated battle, Bradley walked away with the championship rounds after a tormenting start. It was close.

    Judges gave it to Bradley, and they should be the ones penalised. However, why is it there is this despicable hate towards Bradley? When it should be his promoter and the judges facing the brunt of vile threats and so forth.

    If you believe he was robbed, I find it incredibly hilarious that the fanbase that has been on the winning end of three robberies would like Bradley to give his belt back. It's the stuff of movies.

    I know this is old news. But in the aftermath of recent events, and hate still surfacing for Bradley I felt it important to bring this up.

    Out of how many robberies in boxing history, have you seen fighters return belts to the rightful winner? Hardly any. What normally happens is a rematch takes place. Pacquaio had his chance to settle the score and opted out. Just like the judges and promoter; he only has himself to blame on losing out a chance of reclaiming the belt back.

    I think fans should act just like Manny has and leave Bradley be. All he did was lace up, pour his heart out in that fight with Pac, and got his hand raised in the end. He felt that was a victory in his favour, just like so many before him, and Manny has done himself in close bouts.

    If fans hate on Bradley for not admitting he lost, well so has Manny. His atitude after the JMM defeats have been as replicable.

    Hate is a horrible thing. It only ends up getting people hurt whether it be physical and / or mental. There's too much of it going around. If we all maybe just be positive about the great things that happen with the sport, such as fights like last Saturday, boxing would grow and become more popular as a sport. We spend too much time hating and not enough being proud of what we have.

    i don't see why they hold a grudge against him period. he has no control over the decision being announced. if anything they should be hating on Manny's pimp, Arum.

    This is what I don't understand. There resentment clearly should be towards Arum and the judges but sadly only a few of the clever ones understand this. It's like with JMM vs Pac fights, most of all the anguish was pointed towards Arum and rightfully so. Most Mexicans I know love Pac and think he's great.

    On this board, I'm talking about. Boxing fans. Not the casual, Pinoy-pride ones that have no idea what they're talking about.

    Because they are the most irrational fans in the history of boxing?

    hes a winner but anyone who has half a brain and understands boxing knows he didn't beat pac...pac dominated and then pretty much stopped fighting cause he knew it was in the books unless he was going to get knocked out

    pac ****ed up by not continuing to fight but he still won that fight rofl

    most of the dislike to bradley is just that he's boring.

    he can either go the andre ward route, and not give a ****, just focus on being the best.

    the mayweather route, and try to create a persona that sells tickets

    or the marquez route, and develop a more fan friendly style.

    This all has nothing to do with the manny robbery. He didn't get the credit he wanted, cos he deservved to lose. Noone gave Manny credit for beating marquez in the 3rd fight. But Manny didn't cry like a baby about it.
