    After round 5,
    It could have been scored 3-2 Bradley, 3-2 PAC, or 2-2 with 1 swing round.

    I had it 3-2 Bradley and then PAC took over. Tim only won 1 round after that in my eyes.

      Bradley had a bad leg, he was limping in the ring. He was boxing well initially, but he abandoned his game plan & was looking for the one shot KO.

        Half way through the fight, I had it:
        3 rounds to PAC
        3 rounds to Tim.

          His bad legs wee the result of Pac's herky jerky style, just like in the first fight where Tim needed a wheelchair to move.

          The reason Tim abandoned his game plan was due to Pac's adjustment, being more elusive and throwing shots at angles Tim couldn't anticipate.

            Seriously. I was watching a 2010 training video of his, and it's almost night and day compared to today's Manny. He's lost a lot of vitality.

              these leg injury excuses are lame. how come bradley didn't injure his legs against provodnikov or marquez? why only pacquiao?

                yet outboxes marquez who is considered to have a great ring IQ and considered to be highly skilled. hahahahaha

                    Bradley knew he got a lucky break in the first fight. He also knew he had 0% chance of winning on the score cards. He said even before the fight he was going for the KO , yet so many people seem perplexed as to why.

                      Pac is faster than Marquez and Prov. I believe his leg injuries are legit but he has only himself to blame.
