    Thought intially Pac-Bradley fight was close but rewatched HQ version

    Pacquiao dominated
    Bradley missed practically everything and hit gloves for the most part
    Pacquiao would slip in jabs, straight lefts to counter bradley and because hes so fast its sometimes easy to miss

    You cant win a fight but always backing up, throwing but never landing and getting knocked down twice.
    Anyone who believes otherwise needs to rewatch the fight closely
    The fight wasnt even close

      I had a crappy steam too. I had Pacquiao winning 7 to 5 with two knockdowns. But maybe I'd have to rewatch.

        Yeah I don't remember Bradley landing much, but I had the same problem as everybody else.

          In slo-mo, Pac wins 120-106.

          Nah but srsly Bradley at worst still won rounds 2, 8 and 11.

            I watched with the Top Rank commentary the first time and felt it was 3-3 after the first 6 rounds,then Pacquaio took over won.The next day I watched with the HBO commentary and it wasn't even close,including the first six rounds!!

              Timmeh's wide stance limits his mobility. It's not enough to deal with the fleet footed emmanuel.

              To make matters worse his punches are wide.

              He threw tons but was highly inaccurate.

              In their first fight he didn't have this accuracy issue.

                I find that I see most fights differently live than on rewatch.

                I've even told myself that I should refrain from talking about how wide a fight was after just a live watch, but can't help myself.

                  The slo-mo 3D HD version was better. Try it with the 3D glasses too..

                    Yeah that's very true. I was noting to my friend that his feet are rarely ever set for him to counter punch. Mayweather has a hairtrigger ready for his counter. Bradley tries to do the same counters and it just takes so long for him just to launch his punch.
