    Pacquiao isnt bigger than boxing. Let the commission do its job...

    Ok, that feels ******. I figured Id give it a shot, but nah its just as ******ed as it was when people claimed the same thing about the guy who wanted better testing.

    Now we need reform huh... You guys are ridiculous. Funny how your tune changes when your guy is the one on the bad end.

      Pacquiao status stretches beyond boxing and because of this reforms could be pushed through to revolutinised boxing for the better.

        The thing about people telling Pac stans to shut up about this loss is that fans have seen it before. The WBO president and Pacquiao's own promoter said there is nothing that can be done to change the result, so why are people still writing comments like "Robbery! Give him his belt back!". There is nothing that can be done. Even if Bradley gave Pacquiao the WBO belt back to keep in his possession Bradley would still be the WBO Champ on paper and in the history books. All we could do is wait for the rematch. The judges that are being selected are what needs to be stopped. People should be trying to reach Keith Kizer and the NSAC for reform. Not crying out robbery on the internet. Nothing will come of it.
        Or he can voluntarily vacate the belt, and have the people with bigger claim (i.e. Pacquiao & Marquez) fight for it.

            This is bigger than boxing and bigger than the commission, there needs to be a federal investigation into this.

            Get Mulder and Sculley on the case

              - Same day weigh ins
              - Year round drug testing

                  Bingoooo!

                  I don't care what fight brings about positive change; our sport needs it badly.
