Comments Thread For: Timothy Bradley Shocks Manny Pacquiao, Wins Belt

[loui_ludwig]

just getting some kicks... it doesnt feel good when you know your guy won.

I had Bradley winning 2 rounds to 10 for Pac.

I just thought it was extremely ironic how it went down...

I am a Pac fan but i picked Bradley to win. Not because Tim is the better fighter, his just younger and hungrier. Pac has been in the game for 17 years and at his age, has wear and tear already. His hunger is gone already. But he proved me wrong. He won the fight. Its just bull****.

Where To Start: Arum, Judges, Announcers

First and foremost I thought Manny won the fight, 116-112. As far as those conspiracy theorists out there making claims that Arum is behind this decision because of whatever (it depends on the conspiracy theorist) its just plain ridiculous. If you read the remarks arum has made you would know he wanted Paqman to win the fight. He said it was a bad decision and he said Bradley admitted to him that Manny won the fight, more precisely,
Bradley said,"I tried but I just could not beat him." Now if Arum wanted Bradley to win he would not be saying these things. Plus how is it Arum is suppose to have controlled the decision. He is not all powerful, and if he bribed the judges it would be very easy to find out. There is a much simpler explanation to why the judges cards came out as they did. And that is the judges are incompetent! That is what's ruining boxing incompetent judges and incompetent refs! If anything Arum wanted Manny to win because Manny is the money maker and Bradley never will be because he does not have the boxing talents to become a superstar. So its nuts to say Arum fixed the fight so Bradley would win.

2nd Bradley gave more of a competitive fight than Cotto gave Floyd and the HBO team praised Cotto to high heaven for his performance. even though I though Bradley clearly lost he gave it his all and fought like hell and the HBO crew never gave him any credit. He landed some great body shots and the HBO crew just never gave him any credit for anything. Yes, Manny clearly won, but Bradley deserves a hell of a lot of credit because he gave Manny one hell of a fight.

The only remote reasoning and excuses the judges could use is that Manny only fought in spots, usually the last minute of the rd. They could say Bradley was more active. 2nd, I think Bradley out boxed Manny the last three rds. and I bet once the scorecards are released u will see that the judges gave Bradley those crucial rds. This is the only reasoning I can think the judges used. I myself think its wrong, however I thought Bradley won the last 3 rds, but I only gave him 1 previous rd. So I had it 8-4 for Manny. One more thing, these judges should be investigated and Ford and Roth need to retire they are just too old to be reliable to judge fights. Ford is 74 yrs old and Roth is 71 yrs old!

Did arum just want the rematch? hmmmm

I told you guys, Arum wouldn´t put Pac against a boxer like Bradley unless he wanted Pac to lose. Not because Bradley was better but just because of his characteristics (young, no weight drained, unbeaten, strong, speed, movement...).


Where is Daniel alpha´s lol?.

It was so ridiculous, I ain't even mad.

Just find it comical right now.

Great day for boxing. Hopefully this robbery opens the eyes of these idiotic pac fans on who their idol is working with. Bob and Manny just sold out these idiots.

I feel like Bradley can win this fight because of his youth, stamina, condition, movement, pressure and skill set. Manny is dominate when his opponents are slower, fight with their hands down and stands right in front of Pac. I want to say Bradley by UD but if it goes 12th then for sure the robbery may go down but if Arum is smart. He will let this one play out because it will hurt Pac more than help him ESPECIALLY after the JMM fight. Pac damage is done by accumulation so if Bradley can take away Pac's speed, make him punch off balance, miss and pay then I could see Bradley taking this fight easy BUT if he thinks he is going to maul over Pac without thinking his way in then Manny is going to punish him and put him out. Pacquiao weakness are technical boxers. Tough fight to call but I'm going to jump out of the window and take all the heat from the Pacquiao fans and say Timothy Bradley UD. I also feel like Pac is on his way out and Bradley is fresh and undefeated so Bob Arum may be making way for the future and having an undefeated fighter in his stable will probably be worth more in the future. Can't wait for the fight!

Wow..... Pac got robbed after all of these years of being loyal and having Bob Arum run his career into the ground. Pac fans even protected and took up for Bob Arum's corruptness. If Bob were going to rob Pac like this then he should have just gave Marquez the decision in the 3rd fight.

You do realize that Manny dominated his ass, right?

I had Bradley winning the 1st round and the last 5 rounds making it a draw.

The tale tell sign that Bradley was doing work was the silence of the crowd. There's no way Pac could've been winning the fight like Letterman had it and the pro Pac crowd still remain that silent.

pac connected more power punches in this fight than his 3rd fight w/ jmm. and he hurt bradley in 2 or more occasions. it was not his best performance but if pac won against jmm in their 3rd fight then he clearly won this one!
