I missed it but here's what I posted in the Spec thread when it was brought up.

I missed it, but I saw them talking about it on SportsCenter.

ESPN seemed shocked by the results too.

It's stuff like this that hurts the sport of boxing.

MMA has surpassed it as the premier fighting sport for the past 6-8 years imo.

I kind of want to see pacman knock Bradley out in a rematch though... you know he will do everything in his power to make a statement.

I heard the decision of the bout was due to Pacquiao's contract being set to expire soon?... Some shady stuff still happening in boxing.

Btw, I bet Vince McMahon will be thrilled to see his name trending. He's returning to Raw this Monday in an attempt to drive up ratings and possibly spark their annual "big summer angle" to run with for their 1000th Raw episode next month and Summerslam down the line. As Vince always said, "Any publicity, is good publicity." Personally I think the WWE has gone overboard with the whole twitter stuff on their shows, but that's just me.


I will watch it on Youtube tomorrow when someone uploads the bout. I'm curious to see how it all went down.

Comments from twitter:
Vince McMahon about to come out & announce the rematch will be in a steel cage.

This is worst than when Vince McMahon stole the title from Bret Hart smFh

I'm just waiting for Vince McMahon to come out and stonecold stun Pacquaio and raise Bradley's hand in victory...#RIPBoxing

When is Vince McMahon coming out. He's the only one that could have set this up. Smh

I didn't realize the WWE's Vince McMahon ran #boxing

Vince McMahon finna come out the back and hit PacMan with a garbage can

Saw this one from a boxing fan on twitter just now.

Pac man gets what he deserves finally he is feeling the same way marquez felt when they stole his fights vs pac man


Ouch :-/ ...

Anyway a definite fix occurred there, that's for sure.

Even the GB has some threads about it.

Boxing is such a joke. They do a bad job covering up a fix job. They need to learn tricks from the sport who does fixing better than any other sport.... NBA Basketball.

Pacauiao won against marquez because he threw more punches than Marquez. But this match against Bradley is totally absurd. Even the stats show he thread and landed more punches than Bradley.

Saw the whole fight, Pacman won pretty handily. He actually looked really lazy out there tonight, before and during fight, which might've hurt him, but he definitely won handily. If Pacman really lost that, then I say Cotto beat Mayweather last fight. :lol:

I do not watch Boxing but Twitter was irate last night.

Boxing is a corrupt sport and has been for many years. I am not surprised this injustice happened at all and neither should anyone else.

It's not the first time an injustice with scoring has happened, and certainly won't be the last.

This seedy and corrupt sport just continues to mire itself in it's whirlpool of self-created muck.

the whole world knows that Pac Man won this fight. It seriously wasn't even close. Anyone in their right mind would have judged this a unanimous decision in favor of Pacquiao. There is no way Bradley won more than 2-3 rounds tops. The only thing that Bradley won in this match was punches thrown. Pac man won punches landed by almost 100 punches, landed a higher percentage as well as landed more power punches. Bradley was even shocked at the outcome. He told promoter Arum before the decision that he did the best he could, but he couldn't beat the guy. The fix is most definitely in here. This is a disgraceful day for the sport of boxing and this sport is officially dead to me.
