    I can't watch HBO broadcasts at this stage, they are an embarrassment.

    Since Pacquiao-Marquez-III I have either watched fights with a different commentary team or put it on mute. I cannot tolerate their blatant favouritism any longer.

      Manny Vs Paco...Disgrace

      Again boxing as a sport has been rocked again by a ridiculous decision. I dont know how to put into words the sadness that I'm feeling for which was once our great sport!
      Boxing has been made to look cheap, And dirty once again..

      I dont really feel the need to go through what was my opinion round by round as anyone who is a true boxing fan would not struggle to see the true winner!

      There is speculation to who fixed this fight and for what ever reason, I am for one, with you all in searching for the people involved in fixing this fight...But the truth is we are never going to get the answers. So we are left Angry and frustrated to what is happening to boxing?

      Let's put it to them as the scum that are in charge of boxing are unable to make the right decisions to prevent bent fights like this taking place again..

      They should

      Have a professional panel show this fight again and rip it a part round by round let's tell it how it is, So the world can see it, let's not brush it under the carpet and pretend it didn't happen it's a disgrace and we won't stand for it..

      Prevent the rematch being in Vegas

      Eliminate any judge that scored this fight discracfully," by eliminate I don't mean kill just kick them out the sport"

      Show the rematch for free, As Manny got robbed but so did all the paying fans on pay per view..if its not for free don't order it period.

      Grrrr this is a black day for the sport once again

      And I for one think Arum is behind it all...It he's not and he's good for the sport what measure is he going to push for....

        I can't recall anything. Hell, seems like it's impossible. I know that one judge for the first Pacquiao-Marquez fight(again with Pacquiao and controversial decisions ha) later on actually ADMITTED he made a technical mistake in the scoring that made him score it in Marquez's favor or a draw, can't remember exactly. But nothing was ever done. What would it take?
        Not that i know of and i doubt it ever will because then it's setting a dangerous precident that anyone can complain about a decision.

        I do think that there should be a review/disciplinery procedure for judges who make atrociously bad decisions though, but it should all be done behind the scenes

          I don't know, I wish Pacquiao did act outraged at the decision. If anybody could ever get a free pass for that because of a robbery it'd be Pacquiao last night.

            The commentary was a disgrace.

            Lampley and the rest of them made out Pacquiao was back to his old self and dominating every round but to me, Pacquiao was very average. He took the first two minutes of every round off and then let his punches go in the final minute. Not really a effective way of winning a fight. In the final rounds, he literally gave rounds away to Bradley.

            Even still i had him winning quite a few rounds this way and Bradley winning is completely wrong. He put up a good effort and showed alot of toughness but giving him the win just ain't right.

              And why the f@ck am I supporting Bradley's win, I'm supposedly the biggest pacfart around here.
              You're one of the good ones though.

              I think when you re-watch it you'll give it Pac, I think in the close rounds he did the much better work.

              But I do agree with you, I think Bradley won the first and the 2nd was close and I also think he won 10, 11 and 12 with some close rounds in the middle.

              But I'm going to rewatch another time with the sound off because I actually think it's closer than a lot think.

              But, Pac did win, I felt.

                  I know Ariza tried to claim he didn't come in cut because he felt over-trained in his last few fights. In those fights he was still throwing a lot of punches late, in this one he looked under-trained and his usual endless stamina wasn't there. He was taking minutes off through-out the fight and even entire rounds towards the end.
                  Yeah. During those times, I can honestly see the judges favoring Bradley. But to me, Pacman hurt him more on a consistent basis & Pacman won the fight. I don't even want to say that the fix was in because fans act like it doesn't exist.

                  But Pacman gave away the championship rounds, just like Oscar & supposedly Marquez did. Bradley figured him out, but Pacman had a good 5-6 rounds already in the bank. Bradley won the 1st to me.

                    No, but if there was evidence that the result was fixed then maybe, who knows?

                    It's not something that comes up often.
