    it was clear who won the fight and it wasnt bradley.

    i dont think there needs to be a rematch just because the judges were blind.
    A rematch would be interesting because Bradley had adjusted to Pac's speed by the championship rounds. That's always the hardest thing to do against Pac, you know he's fast but knowing and doing something about it are two different things.

    Having that speed figured out at the end of the fight will help Bradley going into the rematch. Don't let the judge hate ruin your view of the actual fight, it was a good fight.

I don't disagree that Arum may have the power to do this, but the business plan you suggest is flawed and Arum is too smart for that. It's about the money.
        How so? He has 2 in house fighters that will be fighting each other (again)....

        How is this hard to understand? Pac is close to retiring. Bob is "building" a new Top Rank star. He is milking Manny with in house fights where Bob controls all the money. He wouldn't have control of all the money in a Mayweather fight, so he's going to make it happen in Pac's last fight to cash out.

        Bob from a business stand point is brilliant. He has 2 in house fights already lined up (Bradley II and JMM IV) before feeding Pac to Mayweather and cashing out on whats left of Pac.

        How do you not see that multiple "controlled" in house fights make Arum a lot money as appose to a Mayweather fight that Pac gets embarrassed in which displays just how flawed Pac is and how he's supposed to be the guy that beats Mayweather?

        All of Pac's hype is riding on being the one to beat Floyd. If that doesn't happen NOBODY will be interested in his in house fights. So Bob is milking Manny now, to cash out later.

          Oh lord, let's see what Floyd's next excuse would be when Pac leaves Arum. This is interesting.

          But I think with or without Arum, Mayweather will be thinking hard whether to add Pac on his resume. He will be 37, his promised retirement age, less than two years from now. 2013 will be an interesting year.

                If Manny beats Bradley in November there will be a Trilogy. He'll never fight Floyd.

                People are saying that if Manny beats Bradley in November, everything will be back to normal for the Floyd/Manny fight. Not true. A Pacquiao win sets up a 3rd fight. And once again Bob Arum comes out the winner. Remember Bob Arum is the same guy who is interested in a 4th Marquez/Pacquiao fight.

                Even if Manny had won tonight. You wouldnt have been any closer to a Mayweather fight. BoxingScene reported Bob Arum saying that Miguel Cotto and Marquez where the front runners for a November fight against Manny. Floyd was never an option or consideration.

                Manny/Floyd will never happen until Manny leaves Top Rank and quits saying "Its up to my promoter Bob Arum".

                  So journalists are in outrage saying Floyd Mayweather paid off the judges to avoid fighting pacman
                  Come on bro. You can come up with a more intelligent comment than that. This ain't about Floyd for once. The judges ripped off Manny. Maybe even Arum. But Floyd is on his vacation chillin. Lets call it what it is and not let the judges off the hook for a bad score card.

                    However, this is the first time many casual fans got a chance to see Tim and almost all of them walked away thinking he is a fraud and didn't deserve the victory.

                    I feel Tim doesn't deserve that as he has tremendous heart, will and is a great fighter.

                    I remember all week leading up to this fight, many people were saying they had no idea who he was and wanted to see how good of a fighter he was on Sat night....and when talking to those same people.....the level of disrespect they are showing Bradley right now is pretty ridiculous.

                    Also the amount of people ****ting on boxing is ridiculous right now.

                    So I'm curious as to how Bradley fans feel to see Tim win like this and the backlash he is getting?
                    Bradley seems to be willing to give a rematch. Short of admitting that he thinks he lost the fight and handing the title back, what else could he do?

                    Also, Bradley fans? I didn't know such a thing existed...
