SMH, if Mayweather delayed the fight like Pacman just did, there would be a huge outcry about him being a diva. Unprofessional of Pacman imo.
 
Delayed for the Basketball no? Thought it was the networks decision so more people would watch it.
 
Yeahh he really is. I've never liked Bradley, Kahn would beat him comfortably IMO.
 
Yeah twice, then moved up to welterweight

It was purely so he could be in the running for this fight against pacman, if he lost against Khan he'd never have had this payday
 
feck sake, pretty shit last 4 rounds. Pacquiao really dropped his level of performance, just eased his way through.

Bradley probably won 3 of the last 4..
 
Pacquiao comfortably.

He switched off and into cruise control for the last few rounds though, very boring and think Bradley took a few rounds
 
Not only did Pacquiao win that, he won it comfortably.

Boxings probably the most corrupt sport in the world, for anyone to even think about giving Bradley that fight is a joke.
 
Serves Pacman right though, how the feck did he not finish Bradley off after round 4/5
 
Exactly what Hatton is saying, one punch would have finished Bradley around 5. I thought Manny was toying with him ffs.

How has he threw this away.
 
Bradleys comments there say it all. He knows he lost the fight, and he knows he lost by a distance.

Crazy stuff :lol:
 
I had bradley for 2,8,9,10,11 I thought the first could have went either way I thought they would have scored it to pac for his 30 second burst at the end.

I thought in terms of rounds it was a lot closer than the commentators was making out but I thought Pac edged it on that but I really noticed a decline in Mannys stamina when he was rocking Bradley he really wasn't following it up and only fighting his good stuff for very short periods.
 
From the Guardian

Scorecards: ROBBERY! Bradley by split decision!

115-113 Pacquiao, 115-113 Bradley, 115-113 Bradley

That's a disgrace.

He landed twice as many punches as Bradley and was in control throughout.

Even if you wanted to say Pacman slacked off last few rounds, he comfortably won the first 8 or 9.

No wonder boxings such a joke now, its corrupt to the core.
 
I know man, it's a joke. So annoyed because Mayweather fight wont happen now. He wants a 50/50 split and not a chance Floyd will give him that now.

He absolutely battered him in the middle, I thought he was taking the piss in not finishing him off. Like he was toying with him. But Pacman seriously dropped off for no reason, why did he not finish him when he could. Bradley won 9 10 11 but thats about it. Thing is though Pacman just gave those rounds away, it was barely that bradley won them just Pacquiao gave them away... Was he ever hurt? Nope, Bradley just kept throwing his jab out and Pac threw nothing. So stupid. He obviously thought he was miles ahead.
 
Don't get me wrong I think Pac won but its clearly that tactic of stepping it up for the closing 1-2mins of each round that cost him tonight. Some judges make up their minds early in a round who is winning and don't change it unless there is a serious knock out toward the end.

That is the only explanation I can think of for Bradley winning any of the openning 8 rounds.
