    It was a robbery. The only posters here saying it wasn't are Floyd's fans and Manny haters. All unbiased boxing fans and 99% of boxing writers, boxers and trainers said Manny won.

    Only Floyd fans insists it wasn't.

      I thought 8-4 Pacquiao was the correct score with 7-5 being for Pac being the worst possible score in that fight.
      End of story. Really all there is to it. As much a robbery today as it was then.

      The people changing their minds about the fight now or at any point are doing so either out of bias or by finding ways to score the fight for Bradley out of argument. You can twist any fight for a certain guy if you really feel like it.

        Yes, Floyd fans like Thomas Hauser and Brian Kenny.

          yes, it was
          fight was 9-3 Pac, 8-4 at worst
          ala Oscar-Trinidad, the guy who had it won knew it, and let up late
          Pac owned, then let the guy have a couple rds at the end
          no way in hell Bradley won that fight, Pac won comprehensively

            I only watched the fight once, but don't see the need to re-watch. I thought Manny clearly won. Not even close. So, yes, I think it was a robbery. One of my neighbors is a big boxing fan; he even fought in the golden gloves. He thinks Bradley won...which makes me question his judging abilities. lol

                So you question a BIG boxing fan who actually has fought in the ring and can notice many nuances that many of us un-trained fighters cant? Interesting.

                  hell yeah it was bad!! i cant believe they even gave pac some rounds.. i mean bradley fought all 3 minutes for all 12 rounds. i cant believe they even had pac winning some rounds. it should have been 12-0 for bradley considering how much he was throwing and landing on manny.

                    He allowed for 1% of the boxing writers having a bad scoring day.
