Definitely won, but I didn't see a 118 out there

Larry merchant is an asshole

I won't shell out $70 for Floyd and no bar in my shithole hometown had the fight so I will wait to watch the replay on HBO next weekend, but from all accounts, I hear Miguel held his own? Sad to hear that Sugar Shane is fading fast though. That guy is a class act and a helluva fighter, but when the time comes, the time comes. Hang 'em up Shane. Canelo is a badass though

but shit sure has changed in boxing...what the fuck is up with this?!? :? :fp:

Johnny Tapia. Not even sure what to say...Lived a life none of us will ever see and fought the same way.

RIP. I never say some bullshit that they are at peace or are in a better place because it's complete bullshit and a fairy tale, but in this guys case, perhaps he is.

I kind of hope he loses. Fuck both those guys.

yup...my feed said pung gow won....

Did anyone actually see this? I get home and find out it was "the worst decision in history". According to ESPiN, Manny landed almost 80 more punches and won 11 rounds to 1 yet somehow lost? Jim Lampley told Dan Rafael it's the "worst decision he's ever seen". God I love this sport but it's more corrupt than our political system. I think the WWE might have less scripting than Top Rank and Golden Boy Promotions. I just wish I still lived in Vegas because I had a feeling about this and would have made a fortune.

Bradley says he needs to review the tape to see if he won the fight. :fp:

Unbelievable

ESPN is so awful. They just teased the fight in the intro of sportscenter and thier supposed "expert" host said "Manny pacquaio loses a controversial decision to AVERY BRADLEY" I'm suprised they didn't follow that up with "Devils beat the Sacromento Kings by using their long stick-y things to knock the flat black disc past the goalkeeper and into the endzone".

Mr. Reliable Bob Arum claims that Bradley said to him in the ring before the decision was announced that he "tried hard but couldn't beat the guy".

it was pure unadulturated horseshit, the fight wasnt even close. Pacquiao got screwed with sandy vaseline.
