      To me, it looked like Chaves landed at least as many shots as Bradley.
      I don't give too much credit to CompuBox either. Nevertheless, it's the same "system" which showed Pac winning against Bradley I suspect.

If that's what the rest of the 8 rounds looked like, then no that was not a robbery. I know very well that HBO announcers like to choose a fighter to push in a certain fight and favor him in commentary and unofficial scorecards, whether purposely or just being fanboys, they love doing it. So Lederman's unofficial scorecard and Kellerman, Jones, and Lampley having Bradley winning means nothing to me. Not even Jones who I respect and is my all time fave.
        Pretty much this. Bradley was moving a lot and showing great defence; however, when they engaged, both were getting hit as hard as they were hitting.

        It seems to me, people are either swayed by the commentators or are awed by Bradley's athletic ability, or both.

          It's not a stretch to have given most if not all of the championship rounds to Chaves. Bradley faded, in addition to that. I think alot of people place too much emphasis on defense in judging a fight.

          Just because you're ducking/blocking incoming shots and then returning 1 and done clean:

          Doesn't necessarily mean you're winning outright.

          The same people will give every single round to a Floyd/Broner type in any given situation.

            It was a pretty easy fight to score. Thought Bradley won clearly.

                It seemed that the scorecards were filled out prior to the nights action.

                Here's the stickler they mixed up the Bradley/Chaves and Benavides/Hererra fights scorecards.

                  He won clearly. Julie Lederman only giving him 4 rounds is farcical.
