06.10.12 | I'm right here with you. I've never been so angered by ANY sporting event in my short 20 years on this Earth. Absolutely unbelievable and inexcusable. Is there no oversight in boxing? These judges need to be held accountable and explain their decisions not to us...but to the two fighters involved. Not sure what the process is but this needs to be investigated to the fullest extent of the law.
Big shout out to Manny Pacquiao for handling the situation with class. No lie, I would have jumped over the ropes and punched a judge in the face and gone to jail. It would have been worth it to me. This is simply unbelievable...I've never seen anything like this in the history of sports. |

@snoxall: all you need to know.....pacquiao ABUSED bradley for at LEAST 9 out of 12 rounds and the judges gave bradley the win in a split decision. |

06.10.12 | Basically What Acorn said. Here are a few stats - Pacquiao threw 751 total punches, landed 253 (34%). Bradley threw 839, landed 159 (19%). Power Punches - Pac-man threw 493, Landed 190 (39%). Bradley threw 390, landed 108 (28%). This thing basically looked like a 16 year old fighting his 9 year old little brother. Not once did Bradley even PHASE pac-man. There were 3 moments in the fight where Bradley's knees were wobbling and he looked like he could go down at any moment. Before the decision was announced, Bob Arum, the promoter of both fighters talked to Bradley and he is alleged to have said "I tried hard but couldnt beat the guy."
This is pure bullshit. Fuck Bradley. Fuck the WBO. Fuck Las Vegas. Fuck any official involved with this fight. Never been so heated about ANY sports thing before in my life. I'm a chill dude and watch a lot of sports...this is the biggest travesty I've EVER seen. |

06.10.12 | its's just so blatantly obvious that the decision was made purely to generate the november rematch. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ |

06.10.12 | I'm boycotting boxing for the rest of my life. Hopefully more people join me. When the promoters and commission start seeing their bank accounts thin out like LeBron James' hairline, hopefully they do something to restore sportsmanship and integrity into boxing. Until then I'm done. |

06.10.12 | meh. dude's a homophobe and seems like sort of a shitbag in general. glad to see him lose. |
JJwins
06.10.12 | @andcas Pacquiao did take his foot off of the throttle those last 3 rounds, I agree. He should've gone for the K.O., but can you honestly score that fight with Bradley winning? Did Bradley win the majority of those rounds? If you can...teach me your logic, because I'm amazed by it. |

06.10.12 | "meh. dude's a homophobe"
i know, that is inexcusable, but seriously here......this is the most obvious sports fuck up i've seen in my entire life. i don't know if this will be topped in my lifetime. |

06.10.12 | @Satellite You can have your own opinions, but calling Manny a homophobe is just being ignorant. |

06.10.12 | @bisaya ? he might not be a homophobe but he definitely despises the notion of equal rights for homosexuals when it comes to marriage. but other than the fact that he has some bigoted ideals, i still think he's a good guy. tho i'm sure espn documentaries about sports figures usually paint the person in a good light |

06.11.12 | bad decision but the HBO commentary made it sound way more one sided than it actually was
pacquiao looked pretty sloppy and lethargic compared to his old self |
