This turn out, in my opinion, is so that Bradley can hold on
to the title and then fight Mayweather, who will beat him and silence the decenters
as to who would have won in a mayweather vs pacquiao fight.
I might be going overboard but when every columnist on the
web is saying Pacquiao won that fight, guess what, Pacquiao should have won
that fight. Aside from the suspicion that it was rigged, the judges are half
the fight. Being from an ITF camp I learned this early on. Anyone that has had
to apply a hybrid form to their fighting style knows that, although you feel
dumb yelling, keeeyyyaaaaah!!!! On ever kick you land to the stomach, it makes
all the difference in the world to the judges.
I hope they rematch and Pacquiao get to redeem this
situation. Or I hope Bradley clearly beats Manny, but until then boxing is
going to lose more and more viewers. And for anyone that thinks it’s not a
dying sport just look at the UFC. The heavyweight champion in the UFC right now
is all boxing. He is beating people with boxing and more and more boxing fans
are going to migrate their attention to facts like that and viewership will
shift more than it already has.
Peace.
