Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: After Garcia, I'm Ready for Bradley in December

I think all the people complaining didn't actually sit and score the fight round by round. They just looked at the fight overall and thought: "Pacquiao threw the more hurtful punches, so he should win". I had it a draw.

Pac paid the price for trying to steal rounds. As some others said, in most of the rounds he was only fighting for the last minute. Sometimes it was only the last 30 seconds. For the other 2 to 2.5 minutes Bradley would be throwing and landing jabs and combinations. You can't just ignore those punches because you think they weren't hurting Pacquiao - the fact is the punches were landing.

Do you go with the guy who had a good 30 seconds? Or do you go with the guy who had a decent 2 minutes and 30 seconds? Rounds like that are up in the air, and if a judge goes with the latter on every round like this, the latter is going to win.

Bradleys been ducking Khan for years thats not gonna change

Khan>Bradley


Won't happen, though. Instead we'll be treated to a damn rematch. It was all rigged to start with.

**** Top Rank.

Bradley>Khan

Don't care for a rematch either. **** Top Rank & **** Bob Arum!

Amir Khan is a Bradley hater & still gave him four rounds yet Letterman had Pacquiao winning by a wider margin? I've just watched the fight again & saying Pac won the first 6 or 7 rounds is absurd. Tim won the first 2 rounds & arguably the third. Its funny how manny lands 1 shot at the end of the first round and the whole hbo crews like yep he won that round no doubt cuz of that punch lol. It was a close competitive fight but HBO's agenda is make people think Floyd & Manny are incredible no matter what is really actually happening in the ring cuz they want to have Mayweather-Pacquiao for the mega HBO PPV. Their commentary is very biased.

i totally agree with this. i first had pac winning the fight easily but the reviewed the fight and i can see how they gave bradley the fight. because pac wasnt coming on hard until the final minute of every round. i think bradley won this fight. i also agree HBO rides pacmans balls too much

Mission accomplished! This was just Bob's way of saying "we will NEVER fight Floyd! We will keep the fights in house and make crazy money in the process. At the end of the day history has a win for Bradley just like it has a win for Pac over Marquez in their last fight. Nicely scripted for fools Bob.

hahaaha. Typical Khan! Always thinking two fights ahead.

I guess you equate landing almost 100 more punches, including 82 more power shots (several of which clearly wobbled Bradley) as 'trying to steal' the fight. Shame on you.

Bradley barely landed a clean headshot on Manny all night, while Manny snapped his head back on about 15-20 separate occasions. Awful decision.

@Kilrain
Those numbers a probably correct, but still he landed most of those punches in the minute or 30 second spurts at the end of rounds. When you're watching the fight you don't see punch stats. You just see a guy getting outworked for most of the round, and then letting loose at the end to try and win it.

On another note, Bradley was outboxing Pac at the end of the fight just by throwing a combination and then moving. Pac was left reaching at air almost every time. Bradley is not half the counter-puncher/boxer that Mayweather is. Imagine what Mayweather would do to Pac. Pac's only chance would be to go for broke and catch Mayweather cold in the early rounds.
