Comments Thread For: Top Rank Pursues Pacquiao vs. Bradley Investigation

[HarvardBlue]

No need to investigate. They'll see that Bradley actually won. After watching the fight again I had to change my opinion. I think I was listening too much to the HBO commentators and not paying to what was actually going on. I definitely don't believe the CompuBox numbers. Bradley was first in almost every exchange and the first to punch in the beginning of most of the rounds. He answered every time Pacquiao tried to flurry and won about half of those flurries. There were a lot of missed shots from Manny. He did nothing for the first 2 minutes almost every round. Bradley kept his hands moving, scoring little pitty pat punches and answered when Pac came with the big punches. Around the 7th round the fight came to a slow crawl but Bradley was busier. The pro Manny crowd wasn't even cheering any more. The two judges that scored it for Bradley had it right.

Yup, same thing. This is a weird situation. It shows how powerful the HBO commentator mind control is. Plus the dumbass pac fans don't make it any easier to see the fight objectively.

Didn't he say he "was going to make a lot of money on the rematch"?

No he didn't, he said that "I'll make a lot of money, but who will watch this sport anymore (paraphrasing a little). The words in brackets "(on the rematch)" were added gratuously by the reporter who probably wanted to insert a little "****e" into it, seeing that everyone reviles Arum, more than the total of any ten others.

I defend him because it's so patently unfair; if he were quoted even ha;f accurately I wouldn't say a word. Being brought up the way I was, that "sportsmanship and fair play" is always the goal, makes it natural for me to do so. But...it's lonely out there, amongst a horde of imbecilic conspiracy crazies and liars.

Yea i still have Pac man winning it but with the tv on mute it really makes the fight seem much closer than the blow out everyone claims it to be.

Maybe if you geniuses took your TV off mute you'd hear that the vast majority of Bradley's lunches land on Manny's gloves. But no yeah, I agree, it's probably best to take one of your two relevant senses away.

Bradley's "lunches" land on Manny's gloves?

[peter stark]

You're all blind mice: Mayweather rigged the outcome. He needed entertainment in jail; screwed Arum; and took the heat off of a possible match with Pacman which he's scared to do.

[peter stark]

gotta agree with ya--dopeys saying that Arum set it up!? What nuts!
It was Mayweather who's laughing his guts out in jail.

iPhone biyatch. Hey brb, gonna go watch this girl sing on Americas Got Talent on mute. Wouldn't want my easily-distracted mind to be influenced.
