I think Manny Pacquiao nealy shut Bradley out, so how does he win a split decision? Ridiculous! rematch?

I'm far from a Pacquiao fan but I have to admit he was robbed. Bradley won what, 3 rounds at the most?

When the scorecards were being read the first judge had it for Manny, then the second judge had it for Bradley, I was like, what??? Next the third judge, and new welterweight champion! I couldn't believe it.

I never thought Manny would have been robbed.

On a side note, Manny looks the same. Even though I thought he won convincingly, he didn't look like he made any improvements at all.

A huge step back for the sport of boxing. I am a Bradley fan, but he did not win that fight. This was to give us another fight before Mayweather is ready. Bob Arum was pretending like he was upset, but he happens to promote both fighters. He stands to make a huge amount of money off of these two fights.

Rematch, Pacquioa is going to be so on point, that I would hate to be Bradley, but I guess I'll shell out another $50.00 buck because I love to watch the sweet science. Those judges should be banned by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

Just like what Quepolo3 stated, Arum is making that money. I didn't pay for this fight or will I pay for the re-match. Screw Bob Arum.

Rumor has it, that Bradley is going to fight Marquez before the end of this year. I don't know about Pacquiao, but soon he's going to announce who he is going to fight.

Here's an interesting video I found on YT. I've watched the fight a couple of times, and feel that Bradley had done a lot better than I had originally thought.

this was an interesting video that questioned Jim Lampley's call of the fight, but fights are so difficult to call, they are moving fast, and once you call one thing, the next thing is happening, so I rarely listen to Jim when I am watching a fight. Plus if you are watching a fight with a large group, you cant hear the tv anywayz.

Everyone knows that Lampley is biased. He was that way for De La Hoya, Klitchkos and Pacquiao. That's why Mayweather doesnt show HBO commentators (except maybe Steward RIP and Jones) any respect. He is a company man and props up the fighter that HBO is invested in.

Remember how Tyson went off on them and said he was going to Showtime. He looked like he wanted to kill Tyson.

As far as Bradley, I don't even know if this dude has fought since that Pacman robbery. He should have stayed active. Alot of competition in that weight class.

I remember that Tyson interview, "HBO knows what they did"
