Bradley-Pacquiao was a fight that could have been scored 7-5 either way. It exposed compubox's punchstats for its inaccuracy and shed a light on harold lederman's inability to judge a fight. Abril-Rios was just as controversial if not more. Hopefully Bradley can recover from the aftermath of this. Seems scumbag bob is trying to force a peterson rematch despite bradley turning him down already. bob is keeping bradley as the odd man out. 2 years is a long time to have on a contract. bradley would have been better served with golden boy but in the long run this will hurt top rank. there won't be a lot of guys from 140-154 signing up with top rank that aren't already there. they see what's happening with bradley. no elite level fighter should have to settle for a weak rematch after a career defining (even if controversial) win. guys like alvarado and rios might like it at top rank because they get the chance to feast on lesser opponents but a guy like bradley is just wasting away years where he could be fighting the likes of guerrero, berto, khan, maidana, mayweather, ortiz, garcia, matthysse. i highly doubt bradley re-ups with arum in 2 years. arum will lose a valuable commodity in one of the premier divisions of boxing.

No one expected Pacquiao to be robbed in this fight. No one. It's robbery of the year pretty much because of that.

We go through this every damn year. The entire staff votes. Cliff and I split the number of write-ups. That simple.
Try to remember it next year so I don't have to go through this **** anymore.

At worst, Bradley-Pacquiao was 7-5 for Pacquiao, I had it a draw from the time I saw it live, and still till this day.
I agree with every one else, Campillo-Cloud was the worst robbery of 2012. And I would actually rank Adamek-Cunningham worst than Pac-Bradley.
