that was hilarious how Bradley already knew the exact date of the rematch in November post match ring side interview & he blurted it out.
ooops! lol.

Pacquiao landed 253 of 751 punches, a connect rate of 34 percent. Bradley landed 159 of 839, a connect rate of just 19 percent. On top of that, Pacquiao seemed to land the more powerful shots.
253 vs 159.
159 > 253 in boxing.

Pacquiao landed 94 more punches, for a 61.40 % of the total of the punches. And bradley just a 38.59% of the total of the punches.
It is like a basketball game 120 vs 76 and giving the winning medal to the team with 76.

Rapper 50 Cent said what many people were thinking: "Man boxing is a mess right now [whatever you do] do not watch the rematch its fixed. both fighters are with the same promoters [they're] just trying to get paid twice."
Canadian poker player and sports analyst Haralabos Voulgarisnoted that there was a late surge of bets on Bradley. "Late money on this boxing match, Pac was -432 at 2pm it closed -397 at pinny. Lots of late money on Bradley."

Everyone calling the judges 'stupid' has no idea what they're talking about. Let's see, 6,999,999,998 people thought Pacman won, and 2 thought Bradley won? Obviously not...it has nothing to do with 'stupidity' or being on drugs. Everyone on this planet KNEW Pacman won, even Bradley lol (he told Arum right after the fight that he couldnt beat Pacman despite doing his best), and yes even the judges knew.
It was a simple fix/rig that the judges were involved in to make a shit load of $. They are actually smart because they made much more by doing this than they would've if they just gave a fair decision. Judges can be dumb, but they aren't more stupid than the rest of the world's population.
If you think the judges ACTUALLY believed Bradley won, then you're the one who is stupid.

Find the 10 bettors who bet the most in this fight and there you will have who fixed the fight. Fixing a fight at this level takes probably a very powerful gambler, a guy who bets probably over 10 millions per bet. Each judge have to be paid at least a million to do something like this.

Some dude on covers claimed five Saudi Prince's dropped a combined of $225 Million on Pac-man to win $50 Million. Vegas collected big time if this is true, in addition to all the other regular Joe Blow on PacMan.

Oddly enough this was the one time in my life I've ever seen such a one sided thread where even those than made money on Bradley are sincerely stunned... This conspiracy could provide world SBR peace for at least 2 days...

Last night in Las Vegas the brilliant Filipino Manny Pacquiao lost his WBO welterweight belt to Timothy Bradley in a controversial split-decision defeat.With that Paddy Power has rolled out one of our famous Justice Payouts. If you had placed a bet on Manny to win in a pre-fight outright or on points, that money is now back in your account. We Hear You!

It was a bad decision.
But in the judges defense, the guy that was doing the scoring for HBO was heavily biased toward pacquiao and was giving every 50/50 round to pacquiao. I felt like a few of those rounds went to bradley
Pacquiao did not win 11-1. It was more like 9-3. Maybe even 8-4.
Even the judge who voted for pacquiao scored it 7-5. Pacquiao did not win 11-1 folks.
Bradley won most of the later rounds. Not convincingly, but many of the later rounds were 50/50 and could have gone either way. Even the early rounds, Bradley won the first 2minutes and pacquiao landed a couple shots late. I thought the 2nd round was clearly a Bradley round. I was shocked when HBO gave it to pacquiao.
This is justice for the pacquiao/marquez 2nd and 3rd fights. What goes around comes around. If pacquiao can get awarded a victory when he really lost, he should be able to take a loss when he really won.
Yes Pacquiao should have won. But it was not 11-1 like HBO said it was. Several of those rounds where they were both slugging were 50/50. i think it was a 9-3 fight. Maybe 8-4.
Pacquiao won. But it was not 11-1.

I personally had the fight 6-6. And I had a round that was so 50/50 I couldn't really decide and I gave it to Pac on the benefit of the doubt. I was not at all surprised by the decision and could have easily had it the same way as the judges.

This statement is exactly why Bradley won the fight. He was the aggressor in most of the rounds. He would control the fight for the first two minutes of a round. Pac's rounds that he won, were won on huge punches in the final 30 seconds. I believe it was the 4th where he almost won the fight after the rolled ankle. But Pac just wasn't aggressive.
The way boxing scoring works and I think a lot of people forget this, and the stats don't clearly show this, is that it goes round by round. The rounds that Pac won were won HUGE. The rounds Bradley won were just barely. The problem is that those HUGE rounds for Pac don't carry over. A judge can't say, "well I thought Pac won round 4 10-8 but I'm only giving it 10-9." then in the next round go "wow that was really close, I'm going to give it to Pac because he should have had the last round by 2 pts. So I'll even it out now."
Judges see the fight as 12 individual fights. Because of that, Bradley was the winner.
