Bradley vs Pacquiao
I just can't believe how low boxing has gotten. Bradley did put up a great fight... but that was just plain old robbery. Manny should just retire, screw Bob Arum and Top Rank.

Huge blackeye for the sport, the judges should be hung drawn and quartered...I literally dropped my beer when I heard the decision.

42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot.

If they were going to do a screw job this bad, they should at least have had Mayweather do a run in with a steel chair.

I haven't seen the fight, but from reports sounds like Manny got royally robbed. I don't even know how boxing manages to stay afloat with these multimillion dollar PPV fights and a few names circling. The heavyweight division has been a shadow of what it used to be since Lewis retired and Tyson went away. De la Hoya is gone. Mayweather is a loud mouth. Arum is terrible for the sport. Everyone keeps predicting the death of the sport, but it keeps going.

The fight was rigged. I can not beleive they would give this to Bradley with just one round favored to him. Even the punch stats tells the story.
After Pacquiao retires, I will stop watching boxing for good!!!
Nuff said!

That's totally different. Some of those Marquez/Pacquaio fights could have went either way AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN JUSTIFIED BASED ON BOTH FIGHTERS EFFORTS. The Bradley fight was nothing like that as it was never close and he was out done in every round except the 10th in my opinion.

Fixed (via judges) fights like this don't help the sport of boxing whatsoever.
There's no way Manny wouldn't have won by decision, yet.. he didn't? Even people at our sportsbar who were cheering for Bradley were like "what the f#ck?" when the fight was decided in his favor.
Pac's not what he once was, but he certainly delivered far more scoring blows than did his opponent.. baffling.
