[Primera]

yeah no offense but how is arum going to make money off a rematch?

the fight itself was boring. the undercards were horrible aside from rigo

no one is going to pay for the ppv....

[DeadLikeMe]

Yeah, on Primetime.

Prime time was terrible. Worst I have seen on there in terms of bias.

[Capaedia]

I'm a fan of Bradleys, don't really like Manny. But I gave Bradley two rounds and didn't wait around to hear the result because I was disappointed and I didn't think it was possible the judges could score it for him.

Then watching the evening news I found out he 'won'.

Maybe I need to watch it again, but my first thoughts were travesty.

[Hougigo]

lol that's harsh (but funny)

It confused me because they wanted him to stand still and get hit.
Watch a Pacquiao fight with a crowd full of casual filipino fans... it's... an experience.

[Redd Foxx]

Bradley fans, would you pay to watch a re-match? I honestly expected much better from Bradley and the only people I could see buying the rematch are serious Pac fans who want revenge.

[IronDanHamza]

yeah I saw that, Khan was hard to listen to when making comments on Bradley. Thought McCullough called it okay.

Yeah I thought Wayne called it good. Think I had the same card as him. But even he was being way over the top with how hurt Bradley was in the early rounds. They were all insisting he was one punch away from getting stopped and was in survival mode.

Benny Ricardo and Amir Khan were being ridiculously biased though.

[jtiger777]

Then Richard Pryor go and burn up, and Ike and Tina Turner break up
Then I wake up to more bull****
You knew me before records, you never disrespected me
Now that I'm successful you'll pull this s4!t

Round 2: Bradley continues as the aggressor, but 30 seconds in, the patient Pacquiao lands a couple of shots. At the minute mark, Bradley catches him in the middle of the ring and lands some punches of his own. With 1:12 left, Bradley backs Pacquiao against the ropes and gets off three shots.

Judges: Roth, Ross 10-9 for Bradley; Ford 10-9 for Pacquiao

Round 3: Bradley lands a hard right to the midsection to start the round, then the two fighters clinch. Bradley is probing with the left, keeping the right ****ed and loaded. Pacquiao is bobbing and weaving, looking for an opening. With 90 seconds left, he finds it and gets off the kind of lightning-fast shot Bradley fears.

Judges: All 10-9 for Pacquiao

Round 4: The most action in the fight so far with both men mixing it up in the center of the ring. Pacquiao is getting the best of it, and Bradley is cautioned for a low blow. He then clinches twice, forcing Byrd to step in and separate the fighters. Bradley is in trouble with 40 seconds to go as Pacquiao chases him around the ring.

Judges: All 10-9 for Pacquiao

Round 5: Bradley has become much less aggressive, and now it's Pacquiao who is charging forward, his confidence growing. Bradley fakes a couple of punches, then begins backing up again. Pacquiao is trying to cut the ring off. Bradley lands a couple of lefts, but they have little effect.

Judges: All 10-9 for Pacquiao

Round 7: It took Pacquiao most of the first two rounds to get a feel for Bradley, but he's unstoppable now. Even on the rare occasions when Bradley gets off a good punch, Pacquiao answers with two of his own. And while Bradley's punches appear to have little effect, Pacquiao's appear to be taking a toll.

Judges: All 10-9 for Bradley

Round 8: A minute in, Bradley appears to get caught in the eye by Pacquiao's thumb, and Byrd momentarily pauses the fight. When it resumes, Bradley is in trouble. Bradley is just tapping at the champion — and for good reason: Whenever he winds up, he leaves himself wide open to Pacquiao's vicious counterattack. Pacquiao again has him backing up at the bell.

Judges: Roth 10-9 for Pacquiao; Ross, Ford 10-9 for Bradley

Round 9: Pacquiao, patient as always, finds the challenger leaning forward and drives him into the ropes with a couple of shots. Then halfway through the round, Bradley bends at the waist to avoid one punch and Pacquiao nails him with a pair of uppercuts. Bradley gets off a right to the head, but he continues to leave himself open.

Judges: Roth, Ross 10-9 for Pacquiao; Ford 10-9 for Bradley

Round 10: Bradley doesn't have the punching power to KO Pacquiao now, so this one is going the distance. Just inside two minutes into the round, Bradley lands a couple of punches. And halfway into the round, while Pacquiao clinches, he gets off a shot to Pacquiao's head.

Judges: All 10-9 for Bradley

Round 11: Bradley continues showing some fight, first slipping a couple of punches and then backing Pacquiao against the ropes. But he doesn't make much of the chance. The crowd, quiet for most of the fight, begins to shout Bradley's name. Pacquiao shuts that down with a flurry of punches that are mostly for show.

Judges: Roth, Ross 10-9 for Bradley; Ford 10-9 for Pacquiao

Round 12: The fighters touch gloves to start the round. Bradley needs a knockout, but he's not showing sufficient urgency. Pacquiao continues to fight moving forward, and Bradley hits him in the jaw early in the final minute. The round ends with both fighters throwing wild punches.

Judges: All 10-9 for Bradley

DECISION: Roth 115-113 for Pacquiao; Ross, Ford 115-113 for Bradley. Bradley wins split decision.

[jg77]

I knew Pacquiao would lose as soon as I heard the first score, which was 115-113 Pac. I was like no way was the fight that close. I knew he would get robbed.

Bradley fans, would you pay to watch a re-match? I honestly expected much better from Bradley and the only people I could see buying the rematch are serious Pac fans who want revenge.

Yes I would. I expect it to be more competitive next time.... honestly, Bradley played Pac's fight for the first half of the fight. I loved that he went toe to toe... but that is what I thought would be the worst thing to do.
