Felix Trinidad and a lot of the power punching fighters of the day win fights while neglecting the body all the time. When has Pac ever really been a body puncher? but i'd say he's had some success. Floyd isnt even a body fighter. so that argument is invalid in my opinion. Bradley in my opinion was dominated and yes i'll watch it again but when its on my big screen instead of my small laptop. My boxing coach threw a fit when they announced the decision and hes not even a Pac fan. it was bad dude

***yourboxingcoach don't lean on other people flawed eyes when you can rewatch it now on the laptop dum***. You either see it or you don't if you turn off the volume and watch just the fight you will see how Bradley won wether you agree or not.

Stop using other peoples credentials as a crutch or thread ender. I box I've got a coach and guess what coaches even disagree at times.

naw its all about perception. if that was mayweather in there tonight, yall woulda said man those punches didnt land because we know all know may. bradley is a nobody... he's not too flashy or brilliant. thats really wat it all boils down to. no im not right there but i can see if punches was landed or missed. are we talkin numbers or who won the rounds here? its 3 minutes to each round and if u decided to turn it up the last minute doesnt mean u won. manny slowed down cause them body shots got to him

Cant we all just....

Be fans of both Mayweather and Pacquiao, not only would we be eliminating 99.9% of trolls, but its the right thing to do.

if you rewatch round 5 (and thus the fight) i think a case can be made for bradley

i rewatched the round everyone says it was pacs round but i think a case could be made for bradley, he seemed to control the round better, and besides the left by pac near the end of the round, it was mostly bradley throwing the punches. Yes they had little power and most were being blocked but I dont find it absurd for a judge to give bradley the round, we must also consider that maybe they saw some of those blocked punches to have gotten through as they dont have benefit of the tv angles we got.

So if round 5 could conceivably go to bradley (when most thought pac won) i can see how a similar case could be made for many of the other rounds which people had pac winning. It is also noteworthy the championship rounds were won by bradley as well.

I think Pac won the fight he landed the more clean effective punching by FAR but what I am saying is I can somehow see how a 115-113 score it is not totally absurd, bradley didnt let off the gas and manny did.


EDIT: I also think the HBO broadcast was quite bias towards Pacquiao and that sways the public perception. Again I am not saying pacquiao lost this fight he had the more clean effective blows no question all i am saying is that it isnt as bad as everyone is saying

In championship fights I look for the challenger to be aggressive, or land the better shots, or show better ring generalship then the champion, hurt the champion, our out class the champion. Not all those in one fight, but something. If you are going to be a counter puncher, then the shots should be flush at times and possibly hurt your opponent, like JMM did, but when the champion (Manny) in this case is walking through your punches and bring aggressive and landing the bigger shots, and hurt you, I have a hard time handing the title over. Now, Manny did lay up on the gas, even then Bradley want coming forward, or pressuring him, he sat back. If Manny would have never tried to please the fans and came forward, we would have been talking about a snooze of a fight....IDK, I just have a hard tome giving the challenger the title when he performs like Bradley did last night.

people are only more inclined to score fights in favour of pacquiao because they like him more. it's a confirmation bias type deal, every time pacquiao lands it counts for more because people expect him to be the better fighter.

Of course Pacs punches count for more than Brads pawing left hand. I bet the judges were scoring those for Brad to win, even though it was a range finder or to keep pac away from him

This man has changed his opponents gameplans with his speed and power from 106 to 154.

Bigge, quicker, slicker, younger, stronger, taller,more skilled- their game plans ALL change after a few rounds with him.

Bradley, a usual pressure fighter, backed up throwing piddly double jabs all night, out of fear of getting hit. It is amazing to me that Pacquiao had Bradley backing up and reeling around the ring just like he had Ledwaba doing all those years ago.

I know he has a ton of haters on here, but acknowledge that the man is up there with the best who have ever done this.

I want to commend Lamont Peterson for similar reasons...

Lmao....boxing is not a democracy...he lost according to the judges...if boxing were a democracy Manny would have lost to JMM and Floyd would only be able to win by KO.

I'll only sign if the Marquez decision is also overturned.

What about Mayweather vs Castillo
