WTF is up with ESPN? Why have they had the past 13 minutes of straight commercials?

Everybody, including Bradley and his corner, knew Pacquiao won except for Duane Ford and C.J. Ross, who were unfortunately 2 of the judges in this fight. What a crock of shite. I'm done with boxing.

Some of you guys must have bought into hbo commentators a little too much. Pacquaio was landing more power shots, but its not like he rocked bradley. Bradley was constantly coming forward and the only time he looked hurt was when he sprained his ankle


lol What? I didn't even have the sound on. Bradley was rocked several time by Pacman including when he stumbled and twisted his ankle.

re you joking?


if you are going to play it that way then what about the fact that Bradley's punches did zero damage the Pac?

I'm sorry but you have to be blind to think it was even close enough for Braldey to win on ANY legit judges scorecard.

did you see the fight?
Yes. My only argument is against people saying "No way Bradley won more than 1/2 rounds." I could easily see Bradley being given the last three rounds.

I think Manny won but the commentary/crowd may have made it look more one-sided than it was.

I was shocked by the decision.

But again, corruption favors the house guy. Bradley dominating and Manny getting the decison "makes sense." This doesn't make sense. Manny is a cash cow and Bradley definitively isn't.

I'm a long time boxing fan and this doesn't make sense. I expect corruption but not corruption for the underdog/non-cash cow.

Its so odd that I may watch it again without the sound on to see if the commentary/crowd noise effected how I scored it.

I thought it was closer than HBO was making it out to be fwiw.

I'm not saying bradley won the fight. But u have to admit he never backed up or ran. He was always going forward. I wish I couldve watched n HD to get a better idea. I was in a shitty internet feed

Amen, especially since it was obvious that Manny was taking it easy to start the rounds, especially when it was clearly obvious that Bradley didn't have the power. Bradley "attacked" but it was defensed for the most part.

God, if a rematch happens he will have hell to pay.

how about we watched with our own eyes.

get serious. there is no excuse for this result. manny controlled the fight, landed more overall punches, landed more power punches and hurt him more.
