Bradley vs Pacquaio (spoiler)

Post by daffodil » 10th Jun, '12, 19:31

What a joke !

Bradley was clearly as surprised to win as Pacquaio was stunned to have lost. The crowd and commentators showed their feelings about the result in no uncertain terms.

Whilst conceding that Manny has looked slower and perhaps not as convincing in his last few bouts, today he out-punched Bradley bigtime.

Well dodgy.

Certainly wasn't the correct decision

WE had close to 100 people here at the house, there was the Stanley Cup Finals, NBA Game 7 Semi'sas well as the fight. We had the fight on 4 different screens 3 in the house 1 on our back patio.

A Lechon was served &devoured as well as copius amounts of beer & wine by the time the last event of the day . the Pacquiao fight started everyone was in rare form

Bradley comes from less than hour from where we live so there was a huge amount of interest in this fight here

It was apparent by the 5-6th round something was amiss. Pacquiao would demolish Bradley & then after the bell & when the next round started he would not go a after him to finish him off. There was round after round of Paquiao not doing anything for the 1st 2 minutes of the round then only really fighting in the last minute. Everybody was commenting on -TV commentators as well

Anybody who watched the fight would have called it for Paquiao, he had Bradley in a daze 3 or 4 times.

We found out at the end. The fix was in -they were all obviously complicit. A rematch date of Nov 10 had already been chosen

Sad day for boxing. Think we've had our last boxing party
I try to take one day at a time but sometimes several days attack me at once!

Ah well, at least Manny has offered (via SMS no less) to share PP1,000,000 of his winnings with me personally. And all I have to do to get the address for the meet, is deposit PP300 to an account to cover "security".

Champion! :lol:

That fight is really annoying as we can see bradley is really lost in that fight.
