Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Gets Revenge, Decisions Bradley For WBO Belt

[ironmt]

First, I will like to say congratulations to Manny Pacquiao and his fans on a very spirited and deserving effort. Without question, He was simply just the better man and I tip my hat to him. Moreover, I was more than impressed with his overall amount of passion, zeal and vigor he displayed in his victory over Timothy Bradley.

Moreover, I admit that he proved me wrong. He is a much better fighter at this point of his career, than I had originally given him credit for and because of it I apologize. If any one wants to question whether Pac has the same level of passion, dedication and drive that he once had for a sport, in which he has dominated over the past ten years, then I suggest they witness the fight he fought last last night against one of the top P4P fighters in the world, where he showed lot's of hunger and desire. He was superb.

So congratulations champ and here's wishing you much success in all your future endeavors.

Very nice post, I think many people questioned where Pacquiao was and how much he had left In terms of his career. Last night should leave no doubt In anyones mind. Pacquiao Is not quite what he was In 2009 but for him to give the performance that he did last night at the age of 35 against what many believed to to be the number 3 best P4P In the world In Tim Bradley speaks volumes for Manny Pacquiao.

pac just defeated for me the p4p number 3 fighter in the world, this is the best win for pac or even floyd in a long long time, not since pac and floyd beat cotto has a top fighter been in the ring with the best two

think of this way

bradley would easily beat, guerrero, ortiz and maidana etc, yet he was outclassed by fighter of the decade pacnext up, marquez, time to make the ultimate rematch, it would do huge numbers

This is nonsense to big Pacquiao up. You don't know this for sure ALSO by this analogy what if Floyd fought and beat Khan who most think Bradely ducked. How would that make Mayweather look next to Pacquiao's win over Bradely? People were critizing Mayweather for possibly fighting Khan but isn't Khan the man Bradely wanted none of? How do you feel about this?

I've been gone for a year from NSB and it's really heartbreaking to read all the immature comments. Some even watch the fight over a phone, others even just read it on a round by round article, but were so ultra sure by their judgments. Like WTF. If I didn't watch the fight 3 times today I would've made exactly the same comments. Maybe I was also too critical and was asking a lot from the pacman. I thought he was already gassed out by round 5 and anytime he could be JMM'd again.

But when I rewatched it, Pacquiao did actually fine and it was a good performance at this stage of his career. He was never in trouble except for that right hand on round 4. It was an exciting fight. He beat a solid caliber fighter out of Bradley. If anything, this fight should only add more respect to the pacman, considering every detail there is. Not being blinded by hate.

Kudos also to bradley for actually pushing it. Never saw it coming, i thought he would fight a slick and discipline fight.

Great fight. Great for boxing. I'm happy pacquiao won.

Manny should consider retiring. His 2 wins since JMM-PAC 4, shows he's world class. It takes character and heart to come back from a devastating knockout.

Very few fighters come back at all after a knockout like that. It's rare. It messes with your mind. PAC has shown to be a special fighter, beating a prime and younger P4P guy in Bradley.

For me, they should go straight to negotiate with Floyd. If Floyd doesnt accept, consider retirement. Manny deserves to go out as the champ he is.

That said, I welcome seeing PAC JMM 5, but I'd be fine with him retiring now.

PAC is not the same as the PAC we've seen in PAC-Cotto, PAC-JMM 2, PAC-Morales 1, PAC-Barrera 1.

PAC still wins though. His experience, iq, instincts, carry him.

Yup, it should be Floyd and after that just retire. If Floyd doesn't man-up as the sissy that he is. Then I say, Pac you've done enough. You are a true legend of the game.

YEEES Pacquiao is back! That was an excellent fight. Bradley did well, amazing win for Pacquiao!

[Ham Porter]

I scored it 115-113, in Bradley's favour. I don't have a problem with Pacquiao winning the fight, as many of the rounds could have gone either way, but the 118-110 scorecard is a disgrace; listening to the commentating was also aggravating. It's pretty clear that 9 times out of 10 you won't get a fare shake against Pacquiao; for whatever reason, the crowd seems to go wild whenever he throws a flurry, even if it misses.

FeFisted is so emotionally caught up in his man love of Mayweather that he's incapable of rendering a fair scorecard for a Pacquiao fight.

I didn't buy the fight, but I read he round-by-round coverage on another website where the writer was completely unbiased. He scored it a draw. This sounds like one of those cases where the judges completed their scorecards before the fight took place.

Pacquaio fans have an uncanny ability to ignore facts that don't support their intellectually limited opinions.

It behooves me that you could make a comment like you just did above and have a sig just like the one you have just right below it.

Who's ignoring facts again?

[nycsmooth]

Sorry, this was an average. over-hyped bout...picture either 1 of these 2 vs Leonard, Hearns, Duran @ 147, even Macho...Pac was not impressive 2 me, he won, I had it @ most. 8-4....what was this paid off WBO judge pernick scoring 10 rounds 4 pac??? he'll never fight Floyd, bit Floyd cuts him up & dominates...

[koboy]

You said a whole lot earlier about this fight...how'd that pan out bro? What happened to the glass chin? I thought pacquaio was taking a nap? You were soooo sure of it right? Dude relax, it was a great fight. JMM and Pacquaio are not the subject tonight. Those are both legends in their own right. Give it a rest.

Hahaha. I think hectari means "I told you I was going to say "I told you so" even if I was completely wrong!"
