"Late money on this boxing match, Pac was -432 at 2pm it closed -397 at pinny. Lots of late money on Bradley." - Bill Simmons

Since Mayweather/Pacman was never going to happen any time soon, this 'controversial' decision just created a money match out of thin air for Manny

Pacquiao vs. Bradley: Reported Rematch Clause Proves Bob Arum Is Frightened | Bleacher Report

It doesn't matter what Arum thought before the fight. Fact is, Pacquiao won by a wide margin and got screwed.

I'm not even mad though. It was so obvious, that the only thing that loses, is the credibility of boxing as a whole.

Can someone please explain to me how ANYONE saw Bradley taking this fight? Pacquiao did take it easy for the first 2 minutes of most rounds, but still..

This says it all..

"I'll make a lot of money off the rematch, but this was outrageous," Arum said.

Twitter totally blowing up...

Goodbye boxing :okay:

Pacquiao easily won 10 of the 12 rounds. Tell me how the hell Bradley won. What a rigged fight. RIP boxing. Fucking disgusting.

1) Suspicious Manny was "late" to prep for his match & was not alongside Freddie Roach around this point.
2) When Bradley being interviewed at the end of the fight about a rematch, a date was already placed in his head "November 10th" which lands on a Saturday
3) On Bradley's twitter, this picture was posted up May 29th https://twitter.com/Timbradleyjr/sta...398080/photo/1
4) How this was supposedly Manny's "last fight" before taking obligations as a Senate back in the motherland. Last fight, I think not. Money had to play a role somewhere in this.

Now I know why I haven't watched boxing since Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield.

i have a feeling this is it for pacquiao...no need to do it again as there is a chance (very big chance) that this will happen again...

i think mayweather has something to do with the judges result...hehe...

-Went to Grand Villa Casino Scala show lounge... Bouncer said the place filled up since 11 AM WTF

-Went to Hastings Eclipse sports bar... No tables or seats left, just standing. Looking at stupid kids drinking water.

-Phoned wings and asked for reservation... Got it in the patio area... Stupid kids smoking, ignoring the waitress when she and my gf asked them to stop at separate occasions. I fantasized about throwing them out the window.

This fight's results was just disappointing as I do believe Manny should have won.
I'm quite surprised at how both fighters managed to end the fight without much visible damage to the face.

fliptuner 06-10-2012 10:03 AM

I go to a dive bar by my house. Usually 70% full on fight nights. The place is a hole but cheap drinks and free fight = sold.

bob arum is a crook, and mayweather is the best p4p. nuff said

I hope the Las Vegas Boxing Commission looks into this

SkinnyPupp 06-11-2012 08:01 PM

They're the ones who did the shitty judging :lawl:

There is nothing to the corruption suggestions. Shitty judging happens all the time, we see it in boxing and MMA. It just happens... it sucks, but it happens.

That's one reason why MMA is more popular, it has the advantage of the opponents almost always wanting to finish the fight on their own. I never was a boxing fan, but every time I try watching it, I get pretty bored by watching two guys basically spar for 12 rounds. It might be technical and all that, but knowing that a finish is almost never going to happen, it is not very exciting. I know boxing fans get really mad when people say that, so I just want to make it clear that I am not shitting on the sport, just sharing my personal opinion.

soo shafted

bd0n 06-11-2012 11:12 PM

I actually feel bad for bradley, a fighters gotta take a win, even though that one was downright filthy. quite a shame, it was a beautiful display of action and pure class on high display. I dont want a rematch, the sport loses until this overturned.
