| Pacquiao-Bradley II - Two Neutral Judges Requested
|
|
By Miguel Rivera Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum has made a request to Francisco Aguilar, the current director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission, to appoint two non-Nevada judges for the Manny Pacquiao-Timothy Bradley rematch, scheduled for April 12 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Bradley captured the welterweight title of the World Boxing Organization (WBO) from Pacquiao in June 2012 with a controversial twelve round split decision that was widely criticized and even analyzed endlessly by the WBO. The first fight took place in the same venue. Judges Duane Ford and CJ Ross scored 115-113 for Bradley, and the third judge, Jerry Roth, saw the a card of 115-113 for Pacquiao. "There are no guarantees [we'll get the two neutral judges]," Arum said to Carlos Narvaez. "All we've done is asked the Nevada Commission for at least two of the judges to be from outside of Nevada and one to be local. We are confident in the new director, Francisco Aguilar. Aguilar is tremendous person, so we'll see." Tags: Timothy Bradley  , Manny Pacquiao , Bob Arum , Pacquiao-Bradley Rematch , Pacquiao vs Bradley Rematch

[QUOTE=mathed]Pac can't even win a "faceoff" conversation, he has no shot in the ring.[/QUOTE]
Because if we know one thing about boxing, it's media interviews directly translate to in-ring success. How did they ever figure out who was going to win a fight before Max Kellerman and his dark room ... |

Now that I think about it. Didn't Arum say the same thing for the last Pac/Marquez fight? |
