        Must be a Black dude as one guy stated if you think Pacquiao vs Bradley was 115 to 113 you either need glasses or your bias as hell

Pac just tried to steal rounds in the last 30 seconds but still didnt do much of anything, neither did at all. It's basically scoring a few jabs and some body work(bradley) or pac only fighting 30 seconds a round.
          I wouldn't go that far. Whitaker was winning the points and winning the fight but it was a draw so it's different. Pac clearly won and was robbed.

          Both were terrible but since one was a draw, then it's hard to call it a robbery.

                This is a good point too. Whitaker kept his belt, ended Chavez winning streak and was promoted to P4P#1 in the world.

                On the other hand, Pacquiao lost his belt while Bradley kept his undefeated record and position on the pound for pound list.

                So Pacquiao lost a lot more than Whitaker did as a result of the robbery. And Chavez lost a lot more than Bradley did as a result of the robbery.

                  looks like some people dont understand the difference between a draw and a win?? If pac dominated bradley and bradley got the win, thats more of a robbery then a draw in chavez whitaker.. i dont doubt these same people they think Chavez whitaker was more of robbery then Lara Williams.... SMH

                    For a few people, yes. But to say only black people feel Whitaker was robbed and latinos thought it was close? C'mon bro, that's such an ignorant thing to say.

                    Was it blacks that were openly disgusted about the robbery writing in Sports Illustrated? Were blacks in charge of The Ring ratings that promoted Whitaker to #1 pound for pound?

                    I could be wrong but it just sounds like your using the race card to explain why this fight is widely regarded as a robbery when this clearly is not the case.
