Boxing: A Tale of HBO Nuthuggery (A MUST WATCH) Pac Man/Bradley Reviewed

[Roid Jones]

Sugar Shot Mosley was dodging everything Manny did in their fight also, either Manny's speed and great offense were greatly overrated, or he has completly diminshed from his prime form.

Manny also needs another trainer to add some new wrinkles to his game, I know he loves Roach, but he's is a one trick pony, and with his health issues, he no longer able to keep up with Pac, and beat him into being one of the top fighters. Maybe I'm hard on Roach but Manny clearly has lost his fire, and someone to reignite that flame

No, Manny didn't win he lost.

OK chief

You're welcome, anytime.

You have to remember that reality and your opinion are 2 different things. The reality is that Pacquiao lost a close decision, happens all the time in boxing. Props to the thread for illustrating how HBO helped to build the perception that the decision was somehow a robbery.

That's the end result of a contest, yes, close fights happen all the time, yes. Manny still won.

Yes, I understand that your opinion is the he won. I was just establishing the difference between reality and your opinion.

Well done, now get a fukking clue about boxing.

So let me guess fight metrics was in on it too. Oh wait Lampley probably paid off the guys from fight metrics. smh at picking individual punches to make a video out of. You could do a same one that sided with Manny all the way. I make my judgements watching the full fight.

Calm yourself. Let me guess, you saw what Lampley, Steward, and Kellerman saw and had no problem with how they called the fight? If that's the case, we simply saw 2 different fights. I saw a close fight that really could've gone either way. Neither fighter did much damage or really had control of the fight.

I'm calm but I dont appreciate passive/aggressive bullshyt. You have your opinion as well, we can agree to disagree. It's ok. Just because I think Manny won doesn't mean I believe it was a blow out. That's where I think a lot of fans fall off the cliff.

you don't seem calm, you seem to be sucking your teeth and rolling your neck judging by your tone. You were stating your opinion as if it were a fact, so I just wanted to be clear. This thread is about dispelling the myth that the fight was a blowout like the HBO team tried to make people believe. We can agree to disagree, but who actually won isn't a debate.

You obviously missed the point. The point of the video is to highlight the biased commentary, not prove who won or lost. Those of you who are reacting defensively to the video are telling on yourselves.

If that is all the video is doing I agree. Lampley nuthugs and plays favorites. So what I watched that fight on mute half the time that night and still thought Pac won. I'm not even catching feelings breh.

There it goes again. Proving my point for me ?

Yes, I've noticed how none of the people who are adamant about making it known that they feel that Pacquiao clearly won were influenced by the biased commentary. Personally, I felt the bias watching the fight live but had no idea it was this bad. The bottom line is, the decision wasn't a "robbery" regardless if you think that Pacquiao win or not. He gave a mediocre performance and got the bad end of a close decision.
