I kid you guys not, I was watching on the computer and i kept looking away saying to myself "am I losing my mind", even though I was giving an edge to Manny I kept thinking these commentators are on some craziness. they did the same thing to JMM. Marquez punches Manny in the face and commentators talk about how great Mannys foot work is...lol Tim punches Manny and commentators say "what a left from manny"..its crazy!

We live in a world where the powers that be dictate and determine what reality is. The US government definitely does it, and the sports world has been doing it for a while now too.I truly thought bradley won a tough close fight. If he had opened up more with combos, there would not have been a question.Manny in my mind did not win. At most, it could have been a draw if they didn't think Timothy did enough. With this performance from Manny and Floyd's last fight,I think their fight will be a classic. Both guys have slowed down and are slightly out of their prime. That means there should be more heavy exchanges and fireworks in the ring.
I think Bradley can definitely peak at those guys skill level. He'll never be a draw or make the money like them but he has great talent and ability. He's in a position now where he can become the ultimate villian. He can make lots of money playing that role although he is truly just the opposite. Imagine if he was flamboyant in the ring. Imagine him throwing the bolo punch or sticking his head out daring Manny to hit him. Imagine him showboating everytime he made Manny miss. What if he threw both hands up going back to the corner after every close round as if he had won it. People would perceive this fight much different.Tim has all the skills, but because he lacks a big punch and because he doesn't put on "a show" in the ring, he doesn't get the credit he deserves.I wish him the best because he is a hell of a fighter and a hell of a champion.Its too bad and a damn shame not enough people acknowledge that.Last edited by jvsnypes; 06-19-2012, 06:10 PM.

i am unbiased and i can honestly say i saw nothing wrong with the hbo broadcasting of the fight
in fact the only people i sawed criticizing lampley and crew are well known manny haters. in the past i wouldve said they were scum bags just like floyd . but since ive found religion i will refrain from saying such things and instead i will pray for them
no one in their right mind can say bradley won that fight . and lampley is just a mere man hes not perfect like jesus . even he can make a few bad calls or mistakes in his commentary it still doesnt take away from the fact that bradley lost and did so clearly
too bad the judges were paid off by floyd . i pray they come clean and admit their rong doings

Very good video. People should boycott the HBO announcers until they are replaced because to say that they are a joke would be a gross understatement. They are far worse than that and I stopped listening to them a long time ago. They don't have any credibility with me. The sad part is that Jim Lampley actually knows boxing very well, but for some reason he just chooses to be a cheerleading idiot in a desperate attempt to influence the viewer to believe that something is happening when it isn't, and of course that the people he is biased towards are much better than is actually the case.
Two things stood out while I was watching the video.
First of all that the commentators are completely 100% biased towards Manny Pacquiao and against his opponent. So much so that when he throws punches and misses them all, they go crazy like he is putting a serious hurting on Bradley. But when Bradley lands 4-5 clean punches that push Manny back, they completely ignore it like nothing happened. They're not just biased. They are flat out liars who will ignore the truth and come up with myths to influence you.
The second thing is how sloppy Manny Pacquiao is in the ring. The slow motion replays really illustrate that this guy is nothing more than a wild brawler with great stamina but very poor technique and zero defence. And what's funny is that he gets made to look like an amatuer and miss like crazy by people who have never been known for having good defence (like Shane Mosley). People say things like "Well how can you be happy? This ruined the Mayweather fight!" but we all know that Manny's decision makers weren't going to make that fight happen, and if it did happen, I think we would all look back on it and think "How did I get tricked into thinking that this guy was on Mayweather's level?". People laughed when Floyd said it would be easier than the Marquez fight but I think it would be easier. Pacquiao is so sloppy, one dimensional and lacking in ring intelligence that Floyd would just counter the **** out of him and probably stop him in 8 rounds or less. It wouldn't be competitive at all.
The Pacquiao-Bradley fight was not a robbery by any stretch of the imagination. It was a close fight with close rounds. I think more than anything people are just shocked that Manny didn't get another gift after the Marquez robbery but what goes around comes around and in my opinion that decision was a far worse one than this so nobody should be feeling sorry for him.Last edited by JK1700; 06-19-2012, 06:38 PM.

watched it against Saturday sound at a barely audible level- scored it easy for Manny
IMO for too many people are trying to find justifiable ways to edge Bradley in victory
no sound, different commentators, 1080p, super slow mo, eyes squinted etc etc
if we're trying that hard.....
Here's a 10 min highlight flick of the fight for those who don't get it..
