Do you think Pacquiao vs Bradley was rigged?

[lucky24]

so far everyone has been saying Pac won the match, I didn't know it was tonight or id have watched it but what do you guys think?

Bradley won Fairly

Pacquiao should have won, judges were paid off

[Moloch]

I think it was set up. They're probably gonna set up a rematch to make money. Pacman won all but like two rounds, and even they were close, I can't believe the scores were so close towards the end. All the commentators said he won, Lederman had it for pacman, the crowd knew it was for pacman. Look at what Teddy Atlas said,

"Unfortunately, the scorers of fights are incompetent. Sometimes they're more than incompetent. Sometimes they're corrupt. (Boxing) doesn't have a national commission, like other sports do. Doesn't have a police body, like other sports have. And therefore you get this kind of situation. I'm not sure if it's accurate that Pacquiao was about to leave one of the kingpins of the sport, Bob Arum. His contract was running out. But I think it was. And when that happens, sometimes funny things happen. But the bottom line is, if you're an honest man, if you're a competent person that knows what he's watching, Pacquiao won that fight. Only one man won that fight. And, you know, he doesn't get the decision. It's an injustice to the sport, injustice to the fighters, injustice to the fanbase. It's one of the fallacies. It's one of the problems with the sport of boxing right now is that the wrong guy wins sometimes."

agreed fully

i don't think the rematch will make up as much money though unless there is a good marketing strategy behind it cause there are a ton of pissed off boxing fans right now

[Moloch]

Yeah, but this is just my take on what they're trying to do. Money is still money and the higher UPS are always ready to grease the wheels. I think the scorers were gonna make Bradley win anyway, but maybe they thought he was gonna put up a better fight. One thing I feel almost certain about though, the fight was fixed.

I was thinking of asking this question myself but I didn't know how many people actually watched the fight but of course it was rigged. I just caught the second half of the fight, the part that Bradley supposedly won and I could see Pacquiao kicking his ass then. It was really rigged in my opinion and Manny was a champ the way he handled it.

[lucky24]

yeah lotta people are saying its cause they can have a rematch in Nov now which will generate more money

[Mr_Solo_Dolo]

Well I don't think it was because of that and Manny didn't really confirm a rematch, he was just going along with whatever the announcer and Bradley were saying. I just hope he gets to fight Mayweather but of course that's not going to happen.

[lucky24]

at this point I don't think id wanna see that match

both fighters are getting old

[Mr_Solo_Dolo]

That's true but I still think it would be a classic. I mean I'm sure they could go blow for blow but Manny would eventually take the fight or maybe not because boxing is a corrupted sport.

[lucky24]

im thinking Pac will be given his title back and this fight will be considered a draw with a rematch for Nov 10

[Mr_Solo_Dolo]

I don't think that would happen. What's done is done and the judges are already trying to defend their actions so the lose is still going on Pacquiao's record but if he does do the rematch, he'll get his belt back then.

[hallieb26]

Yeah seriously. It seems like a ploy to get more people talking about boxing. It was total bull, there's no way it should have gone to Bradley.

[MaxwellSmart]

Did you see Pac's previous fight? He won and was the biggest rig I have ever seen. Its about time he got his comeuppance.

[lucky24]

i saw his previous fight

he didn't do great but he wasn't bad either

it was a really close fight but that's not the case on this one

If an online betting site is refunding money back to Pacquiao bettors link then you have to concede to two possibilities. Either these judges were incompetent and should have their past decisions possibly looked at by a panel, or they were paid off by someone, in which case the F.B.I. should get involved (They did just a few years ago when an N.B.A. referee was found to be betting on games and they found a lot of f***ery going on).

I didn't see any way that Bradley could have won that overall. He had maybe a round or two but seriously..whoever the judges were are f***tards.
