    Here's a link to the tremendously one sided press row cards. Notice the average is 117-111, which qualifies as wide:

    The only fight IMO that qualifies as a robbery is Pwill vs Lara..I think the word robbery gets thrown around far to often..For heavens sake you have people claiming Matt vs Judah was a robbery which it clearly wasn't..

      bradley took the first 2 rounds and he EASILY took the last 3 by outboxing pacquiao who was exhausted from punching air at that point. that's 5 rounds right there. i gave pacquiao the 2 close rounds that occurred during the mid rounds which ultimately won him the fight. the judges might've seen those close rounds differently hence why bradley has the W. it was a damn close fight and their scorecards reflected that. then again i'm probably one of only a few to rewatch the fight. it seems a lot of people who have pacquiao by shutout are going off on fight night emotions rather than plain objectivity.
      You're in a very tiny minority with this view. Nothing more needs to be said

        No absolutely not, I never brought up any slomos. In fact I brought up Pac JMM 3 press row cards that show a much closer fight than is commonly "remembered".

        As you saw from the link, less about 5% of the quoted experts saw a close fight, with about 1% having Bradley winning. So I'm not saying it's an impossible or a biased opinion, but clearly a far fringe one.

          Disagree. IMO both Rios Abril and Bradley Pac were wider than PWill Lara. IIRC I had PWill winning 4 rounds outright (not by default, as in Pac Bradley when Pac started coasting). On average the press guys scored Pac Bradley 9-3, just a bit wider.
