Ditto Here.

I enjoy watching the "sport", but decisions like last night put boxing on the same level as WWE. At least when you are watching The Undertaker -vs- Hornswaggle they aren't trying to convince you that the outcome of the match is based on anything other than entertainment.

I have a question.


Is all this uproar about Pacquaio losing because everybody is on his nuts or because it was a legitimate sham?


All I ever hear about boxing is Manny this, Manny that, Manny is amazing, I want Manny's babies.

Last night's decision was outright thievery.

There is no way to really look at this fight as anything other than a clear, decisive win for Manny. It wasn't even close.

I'm not a big boxing fan, but will usually watch the bigger fights. Manny got robbed in this match. I don't know what those 2 judges were thing, but they had to be smoking something. All 3 judges had the bout 115-113, 2 for Bradley, 1 for Pacquiao. How any of those judges had it those close I don't know..I had the fight 118-110 in favor of Pacman, I could see maybe 117-111 and at the very worse 116-112, but that's a stretch, how these three judges saw it 115-113, and 2 of them saw Bradley winning is beyond me...some judges got paid!

grantland had a good article about the fight particularly with a conspiracy theory as to why:
