    I expected Bradley to be dumber, and I expected Marquez to have more power... Bradley was a genius, Marquez... I guess just didn't land, but that's becuz Bradley is a genius

    TIM DESERT MOTHER FUCKING STORM BRADLEY

      I felt Bradley edged it but maybe Marquez genuinely did believe he edged it? It was a close but fairly clear win for Bradley. I mean lets be fair it was nip & tuck and there wasn't a lot to separate them in most rounds.

      I am not surprised he may feel he just did enough. Its not like he was dominated or anything although some seemingly feel he was.

        I mean, this is such an obvious close fight as far as I'm concerned and a Split Decision is exactly what I was expecting.

        Jim Watt is a joke a Nick Halling was even worse.

        Marquez would land a punch and you'd hear "Right hand again from Bradley".
        Where are the excuses? Let me hear em!

          It had some competitive moments, but Bradley won 8-4.

            It was a scoring nightmare. There were reasons to like either guy in many rounds. Clean boxing, Bradley was just better. Marquez is only okay against certain styles; struggles when he has to lead like that. I didn't think TB could resist the urge to engage. He did and all props to him. If it had gone 9-3 the other way, I would have disagreed, but I wouldn't have cried robbery. The whole first half was a swing round.

              Probably because Nancho kept telling him he was winning or the crowd kept cheering. He slipped a ton of those Marquez punches

                That's the new Pacquiao, it's not like he's always been like that. Remember after the 3rd Marquez fight when he said "Be a filipino and support me, I won the fight"?

                Damn I actually respected this dude. First the Mayweather PED rumors and now this. SMH

                  No excuses at all.

                  Better man got the nod.

                  Close fight for sure but Bradley deserved it.

                    Bradley landed the best punches and Marquez was the one that was getting buzzed.

                      What can I say. Bradley had a great game plan. I give him full credit. Made Marquez look bad.
