Pacquiao vs Timothy Bradley June 9th [Las Vegas]

being active doesn't automatically mean winning rounds. has to be effective. even in the last three rounds manny out landed bradley.
round 1 is a good example I've seen a lot of people score that for pac cuz bradley was more active but not landing anything significant manny last 30 seconds or so lands a few big shots, that's classic sugar ray leonard type shit stealing a round.
now I myself gave round 1 to bradley but I could have easily favored pac. after that its round 8 and one of the final rounds, 3 rounds total. just seemed so obvious pacs power was a big difference. bradley would land a shot on pac and do nothing, pac lands a shot on bradley and he's falling back and all over the place. on top of power pac outlands Bradley in ever round but one
all that activity by bradley but such a low connect percentage. really not a hard fight to score.

, We'll agree to disagree lol anyways do u feel Manny has lost a step? Seems to me his movement and rate of punches thrown isn't quite the same. He use to overwhelm fighters by throwing a flurry of punches and weird angles. Like I think he would tore through Bradley easily say 2 to 3 years ago
that was such a hard fight to score. every time I've watched it I had a slightly different score. watching live I thought pac won by a round. re watching it three times I scored it for marquez by a round and a draw twice. so many swing rounds that really could have gone either way, but the rounds marquez clearly won he dominated with harder more effective punches. Pac landed some good solid shots too in his rounds, which bradley really didn't do at all.
gave Pacquiao a boxing lesson' - Judge defends scoring Bradley win
by Dennis "D Source" Guillermo
Las Vegas, NV - Duane Ford, one of two judges who scored the bout 115-113 for Timothy Bradley over Manny Pacquiao Saturday night, defended his scorecard in speaking with Steve Carp of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
"I thought Bradley gave Pacquiao a boxing lesson,” said the 74-year-old boxing judge based in Las Vegas.
“This isn’t American Idol. If I judge for the people, I shouldn’t be a judge. I went in with a clear mind and judged each round,” Ford added in dismissing the massive backlash from the general public regarding Pacquiao's surprising loss.
Compubox statistics showed that Pacquiao landed 96 more punches, despite throwing less, connecting on more power punches and jabs at a more efficient rate. Unfortunately for Pacquiao, Ford does not care for such stats, nor were they available for the senior boxing judge while scoring the fight.
“I don’t look at the punch stats but I saw Manny miss a lot of punches and Bradley hit Manny and win a lot of the exchanges,” insisted Ford.

Are you more mad that Bigface told you before the fight that Tim Bradley would beat Manny?? I always seem to prove that I know boxing, while the haters keep on hating on my input.. I love it, it's so funny.. The HBO Team once again got people drinking the Manny kool-aid. In the championship rounds Bradley stood toe to toe with Manny and won all the last 4 rounds, and pushed Manny back at times.
HERESY is not mad that you told HERESY before the fight that Bradley would beat Pac. HERESY had no knowledge of you ever saying such a thing until HERESY asked, so it doesn't matter to HERESY.
No one is hating on your input bigfool. Some of us diasgree with it, some are more outspoken, but I don't think it's hate.
As for your boxing knowledge, I'd say that is up for debate, but it is what it is.
There is no drinking the Manny kool-aid, bigfool. I'm for the SPORT of boxing, I'm a fan of the sport not this guy or that guy and shit like this creates a BAD image for boxing. He let off the gas in the championship rounds but he STILL outpunched the guy (according to compubox stats) and there were times when he pushed Bradley back at times.
You went from saying pac got robbed to bradley winning the fight to you having a draw on your card. LOL.

50 Cent On Timothy Bradley/Pacquiao Fight "Do Not Watch The Rematch It's Fixed."
When Timothy Bradley was awarded a controversial decision over Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas Saturday night it set up an immediate rematch between the two fighters and further pushed back a possible mega fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Pacquiao.
The result could also affect the amount of money both Mayweather and Pacquiao could possibly make facing each other given the fact that part of the appeal of that fight is that Mayweather is undefeated and Pacquiao had not lost in seven years. With the loss to Bradley, some fans might not consider Pacquiao the No. 2 fighter in the world anymore.
One interested observer who did not like the outcome of the fight is Mayweather's close friend 50 Cent. Fif took to Twitter on Sunday to voice his displeasure with the result and upcoming rematch.
"Man boxing is a mess right now what ever you do. Do not watch the rematch its fixed. both fighters are with the same promoters They're just trying to get paid twice," 50 wrote. "At least you know floyd fight to win Pacman won they just gave the win to there other fighter to make the rematch DAMN. They don't want to make the floyd fight happen so there pulling this sh*t on us wow. Pacman lol they R making a fool out of U. Look at the bright side. rematch, make them some more money. LMAO."
Will the interest level be the same from fans if Mayweather Jr. fights Pacquiao?

They are trying to get paid twice, I believe it. This nigga Bradley already had posters and tickets and shit, Arum talking about how he was going to make money, etc.
You wanna know who the real winner is in all of this? Floyd. He can spin this in his direction so fast because EVERYONE is going to want to know his opinion of the fight and who he is going to fight when he gets out. He can spin it into "Pac won the fight, and the sport of boxing needs this fight" which will make people tune in due to the controversy surrounding the loss. The filipino fans will LOVE Floyd for doing this as he is giving their hero a fighting a chance. They'll look on Floyd as a good man if he spins it that way. If not, he can still fight Bradley, beat the shit out of him. say no to pac because he is coming off a loss and retire undefeated.
