WBO welterweight champion Timothy Bradley is not listening to the critics who believe Manny Pacquiao (55-5-2, 38KOs) was robbed of a victory in June of 2012 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. They are going to face each other for a second time on April 12th, at the same Las Vegas meeting.

When they met the first time, two judges scored it for Bradley with identical scores of 115-113, and the third had Pacquiao winning 115-113. Bradley (31-0, 12KOs) is not only standing behind the victory, but he says the more realistic score should have been 116-112 in his favor.

“I scored our fight eight rounds to four in my favor. No way he won that fight. I know all about Manny. I went into the ring with him. I felt his best punches. Me, I am a different fighter than the one who fought Pacquiao in our first fight. I am more mature, smarter, and I now listen to what my corner is saying," Bradley said,
