    In opinion, whoever scored the fight either way is not wrong. Personally, I believe that both fighters did enough to win the fight. So the decision could have gone either way or even a draw with have sufficed.

    Originally, I had Pacquiao winning but after reviewing and unofficially scoring it with a critical and analytical eye I scored the fight, just as the opposite of Jerry Roth's 115-113 score for Manny Pacquiao in favor of Timothy Bradley.

      Good post.

      Pacquiao beat Bradley's ass and even if Tim won, his body language during the ass beating and his response in the post-fight interview with Max sure as hell didn't sound like someone who won.

        Can't argue with what you're saying here.

          I've seen worse, but it should have been a 8-4 type decision for Pac

                Not really. Happens all the time. That's why people study tape in the first place.

                I didn't score it the first time I watched it but I thought Pacquiao won (I did think it was close because I noticed he lost the last few rounds). Next time I scored it I had Bradley winning. And each subsequent time I've watched it.

                  Watching it live with my brothers, the feeling when the fight ended was that Pac should get the decision but may've given it away by doing nothing in the last four rounds. He looked exhausted.

                  Thought Pac won it but wasn't mad when the decision went the other way, I've seen much worse than this.

                    Pac won that fight but it wasnt his best performance. People talk abt how many punches Manny missed, but how many did Bradley missed. Manny defence was on point. Pac should have won that fight thats for sure. It wasnt a shutout like Lampley is saying but it was a 8-4 fight.

                      Definitely Pac won by a wide margin, I scored it 10-2 or 11-1 on fight night, which means I'm up to 6 a clock in the morning and probably drunk. I've seen it again since and I still think it was crystal clear that Pac took it wide.

                      I will need to watch it again though, because a lot of people changing opinion, could it be I was wrong? Investigation needed. You should all just do the same, it was a good fight, so why not?
