    I think this decision along with the allowance of Chavez jr to skip drug testing indicates that something very untoward is going on at the upper echelons of boxing, with Bob Arum playing a central role. Regarding the Pac/Bradley fight, my guess is that Pac has simply lost his interest in boxing and wants out fairly soon and Bradley is the Top Rank replacement marketing item. Bob thought he could kill two birds with one stone by using this fight, which he anticipated being close, to promote Bradley and slowly erode the public's interest in Pacquiao by adding a loss to his record. But the plan backfired when the fight turned out not to be close. Now he has to deal with the fallout (not that he cares about what this type of injustice does to the sport; as long his wallet keeps getting thicker he doesn't care. Typical).
    As much as i agree the sport is corrupt (no doubt), this was no robbery, the rounds Pac won he won well and had Bradley hurt a few times which can be deceptive in a 12 round fight, but if you score it round by round its a close fight, whether u have Pac or Tim winning it was close, i had it a draw, especially look at the last 4-5 rounds, Pac really did very little and was visibly getting tired. I find a lot of times Pac gets given rounds based on reputation alone, anyway thats my opinion. there was a video posted on this threat a few pages ago, now i know anyone can make someone look bad in a cut & past video but i thought it was right on the money, check it out.

      Only the Nevada commission can overturn it and we saw how that went with Abril-Rios. They didnt see "any problems with the scoring for that fight." Matter of fact, has the Nevada commission even said anything about this matter of Pacquiao-Bradley. Now that I think about it they been pretty quiet...
