What a piece of unmitigated shit!! The two judges who scored the bout in favor of Bradley 115-113 should be taken to the front steps of the saloon and pistol-whipped. That the third judge scored it 115-113 for Manny incredulates me. What fight were THEY watching?? Fuck, when HBO gave the 6th or 7th round to Bradley (who up to that point had NOT won a round previously) I was surprised. But THAT round was close. The other rounds were NOT close. HBO scored the bout 119-109 to Manny (11 rounds to 1). Hence my chagrin and gritting of teeth big time.
Of course, now Manny has lost this fight, that arsewipe Mayweather may sidestep his bout with Manny by the excuse "he just lost his last fight." Is there a God??
HBO commentator was obviously incensed as he stated "I have never been as BEFUDDLED (now that's a major comment) by this decision and it is absolutely wrong." I anticipate a fire storm heaping scorn and ridicule on the Nevada Boxing Commission.
I understand the intricacies of scoring boxing bouts, but this was so totally obvious.
Whether Manny accepts the offered rematch in October remains to be seen. Boy, was Manny abundantly gracious in his post-fight interview. One ultra-classy cat.
