Who Won Pac-Bradley? Post fight discussion STOP MAKING NEW THREADS ABOUT THIS FIGHT.

[MeanestNiceGuy]

To be honest, I gave Bradley 5 rounds. I gave him the first 2 rounds. Manny only landed a few left in the last 10 secs of the 1st round. Bradley won the 2nd round.

THEN, this is where it gets messy...Manny should not have allowed Bradley to win rounds 10-12, which are the championship rounds. Bradley won those because of Manny's inactivity (so to speak) and missed punches.

NOW, Im not saying that Bradley won the fight, but ANYTIME you allow the cards to get to a "7-5 round situation", you leave room for ****ery.

Bob kept Manny honest tonight. After they find out how much Floyd made in his last fight, surely that will make Manny ask for more money in his next fight, had he won this one.

Since he didn't win, Bob can say, "Hey kid, you just lost your last fight and there's not enough money to pay what you're asking for". This way, he can keep paying Manny with what he's comfortable with paying him and make more money off of him in 2-3 more fights, rather than risking it all in 1 Mayweather fight.

Haven't read the thread but wanted to get on the record congratulating Pac, though I picked him to lose. Man, hats off to Pacman and co.

He looked very impressive and is by no means done, imo.

I picked Bradley thinking he'd be strong and hungry enough, but he wasn't and Pac was awesome and apparently not diminished as I had thought could very well be the case.

Bradley fought bravely but he was beaten handily by the still-scary Pacman!

As to what the "judges" said about the affair:

Karma.

Probably crying... that he arguably beat the guy twice, but didn't have the dumb luck to have the stars align for a Bob Arum agenda to take place.

Yes Pac was robbed, but the fight was much closer than Harold "senile" Ledderman had it. HBO is nauseating with their bias and scorecards. Atleast Showtime has three different unofficial scorers. I had it 116-112 for Pacquiao.

I gave Bradley rounds 1,8,10, and 12. Remember, Bradley was easily winning the first round until two major lefts landed, if a guy controls more than two minutes he should get the round unless he is seriously hurt or dropped.

Of course, the new conspiracy theory is that Top Rank knowing that the Mayweather fight is never going to happen simply wanted to cash in with a Bradley rematch since they can consolidate all the promotional revenue with two in-house fighters.

This is not good for the sport, as was the horrible decisions PW-Lara, Pac-Marquez 3, Cloud-Campillo. However, with the noted history of corruption it should never come as a shock.
