Who Won Pac-Bradley? Post fight discussion STOP MAKING NEW THREADS ABOUT THIS FIGHT.

[Chris A.]

He is talking about one punch out of a 12 round fight. The first rule in judging a fight is suppose to be "clean effective punching" all the effective punches were landed by Pacquiao. Every time he hit Bradley it backed him up, Bradley's punches did not even make Manny blink!

Why are some Pacquiao fans so obsessed with glorifying their man?

Pacquiao flopped after the 7th. He looked totally fatigued while Bradley put on a brave performance. When you have a close fight decisions can always go either way.

bwahaha that was random as hell. Poor guy was in the middle of a conversation and pac goes ham on the ring post LOL. Dude was like " What the fuccckkk is going on???? "

hahahah Pac was like "fkkkk what you talkin bout"

[RichCCFC]

it WAS a robbery BUT you don't simply give a belt back, the judges vote on decisions and you have to accept them.

He trained his ass off, giving belt back and a rematch would be ******.

I like Andre Ward

honorable man.

The only thing Bradley is doing by accepting something he didn't deserve is tarnishing his career before it even started. Who really thought he won this fight? Who accepts him as the legitimate champion?

[TyrantT316]

Bottom line: Arum wanted a money rematch and made sure that it happened.

Glad I'm not the only one who could see that. People have been scaring me with their blindness and general ignorance. Pacquiao all but completely took Bradley's heart within the first few rounds. Like I commented in a thread that night; even my GF was saying "...what's wrong with Bradley?? Why isn't he trying..?"

I think his "handicapp" had something to do with that. I don't think anyone below 160 pounds is going to remain confident standing in front of Manny Pacquiao with one leg.

I don't understand how anyone could say that Pacquiao took Bradley's heart when he was the one competing on possibly two broken feet. If that isn't a sign of bravery then I don't know what is? It took guts for him to compete with someone of Manny's caliber with compromised health. Also, to the T.S. point, I agree. I didn't see a dominating performance from Pacquiao against Bradley. Sure, I believed he won the fight. However, remember that Timothy was handpicked by Arum and Roach because they thought he would be an easy opponent for Manny and it backfired. In my opinion, the Manny who fought Cotto and Margarito would've KO'd Bradley within six rounds. Additionally, I cannot recall Manny missing so many of his combination punches Saturday night, since moving up to the welterweight division either. He was mostly landing single punches at a time.

I think McCrory is terrible!

I like McGuigan. He's one of the only one's I like.

Don't like Nelson either.

well he picked Froch over Bute :-) in truth it's more of a personality thing I like McCrory for his all round jolly good-blokeish-ness, IMO the other two are know-it-alls

[FeFist]

No he wasn't. Sure he lost vs Peterson but we don't know if he was using steroids in that fight. Bradley was the number 1 guy according to many people, including myself.

Pac schooled him. That's what I saw. lmfao @ competitive fight. I've watched Bradley since pre Witter and dude has his confidence taken away in the early rounds by Pac. This is coming from someone who is a Bradley fan and has talked shit about Pac before.

Out of curiosity how many rounds do you think that fight was scheduled for? Up until Pacquiao stops dominating?

The fight was 12 rounds in the opening 2 rounds things were even, rounds 3,4,5,6,7 tide was in Pacquiao's favor, rounds 8-12 Bradley came alive. It is asinine to make the claim that Pacquiao took Bradley's heart. A fighter with a broken will doesn't find himself in the championship rounds.
