Comments Thread For: Tim Bradley: Watch The Fight Again With The Sound Off

[indystress]

He's getting all these hate because he is provoking the fans. Casual or hardcore boxing fans (without agendas) know that he didn't win the fight. The people who have seen the fight are not dumb, saying that the people who thinks he lost was because they were influenced by HBO commentating, is BS, 98% of boxing analysts scored the fight for Pac by a wide margin.

He would be better off keeping his mouth shut, tbh. I wish he would. He's just looking more and more like a fool every time he opens his mouth.

this thing about bradley saying he's trained like no other, that he will go toe to toe with pac, even as far as to say he will kill pac...and now for bradley to even think he beat pac convincinly is a joke and my total lack/loss of respect for bradley...he has no integrity at all, zero, period...bradley must fell proud to be wearing a bogus belt that doesnt really mean anything other than "IM A FAKE" champ.

The HBO crew was probably at their worst ever. They commented on punches that didn't even land. Lampley was the biggest cry baby of them all.

Bradley you got beaten by the better man. 99% of the world knows it and so do you. Just accept it and give the title back. Be a man, not a pawn on Arum's chessboard.

[Da Hammer]

Watched it with no sound and Pac still wins. I'll try watching blindfolded next and see if maybe that way i give bradley more than 3 rounds.

I think everyone is pissed because of how lopsided it was. There are somewhat close fights that go the wrong way, but this one could very well be the worst in boxing history. There is no conceivable way to score the fight for Bradley without being a complete fool.

The reason people are hating on Bradley is because he won't admit to losing the fight. Let's be real though, we all know Bradley lost the fight - and Bradley as well as anyone knows he lost the fight. But what if you were in Bradley's shoes? Are you going to give the belt back and miss out on another multi-million dollar payday? HELL NO you wouldn't. You'd milk it for everything it's worth. So don't be pissed that Bradley isn't doing the noble thing and giving the belt back. He's doing what's best for his career.

The boxing world has exploded over this, everyone knows that Tim Bradley lost. The only thing we can hope to do now is make a strong push towards cleaning up the sport. The guys over at ESPN boxing have some great ideas for it.

The first step is overturning this GARBAGE decision, but I don't believe that will happen.

And just to be extra clear to the world: if you had Bradley WINNING, you are a complete fool.

ok so Pac lost the WBO title, big deal, he was going to fight Marquez next whether he won or loss so what difference does it make? Does everybody now go from being angry that he got a gift against Marquez to sad cause he got robbed by Bradley? Arum is a smart man, now Pac is a martyr who got robbed rather than the guy who got a gift against a 40 year old lightweight

Pac didn't get a gift against Marquez. That was a close fight where several reputable people had him winning, including Ledderman. If Marquez got the nod, there would still be plenty of debate.

Bradley got the ultimate gift decision against Pacquiao in which pretty much NO ONE had Bradley winning. If Pacquiao had gotten the decision, pretty much no one would be standing up saying BRADLEY GOT ROBBED.

p.s. even if what you are saying was the case, trying to "equalize" ****ty decisions in boxing with more ****ty decisions is NOT the answer.

I watch the replay with the sound off, tim bradley, manny pacquiao still kicks your a$$. Bradley has every chance to make it right but failed to do so. You will never be a big star like pacman or fmj.

I think that Mexican fighters and fighters like Manny has changed the way people look at a boxing match. They usually give you toe to toe action every round. They put more into their power punches than they do in defense. It usually leads to a well pleasing fight. The truth is, with todays boxing fan, fighters like Muhammed Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Pernell Whitaker, Ray Robinson, and Roy Jones would always get booed. These guys actually boxed. Its not about going toe to toe. Its about hitting and not getting hit. Its suppose to be the sweet science, not the backyard brawl. So of coarse most people thought Manny won. He's an action figher.

Now in saying that, I watched the fight only once and thought Manny won. But I was drunk and heavily influenced by the commentating and fans cheering. But I'm almost certain that when I watch the replay this Saturday, I will change my mind. I do remember Tim taking alot of shots, but I also remember him slipping and bobbing alot of Manny's bombs as well. There were times when Tim would look a little akward when throwing his punches, but there were also times when he looked good. The punches just didn't affect Manny as much as Manny affected him. But Tim still did a great job and I think he could outbox Manny easily in a rematch. Just how dominate was Manny if he couldn't KO a feather fisted champion with 2 bad wheels? Maybe he did win but it still wasn't impressive.
