What are your thoughts on the fight overall
Here you go, after watching the fight like 3 times and once before bed here is my assessments
Firstly Whoever saying the first fight was a robbery need to kill themselves, Bradley won every round from 7-12 not to mention the 2 first toss up rounds..........Now to the fight at hand
Bradley was beating the ever loving shyt out of Manny in the first half of the fight, Leading 4-2 in my book, Manny had flashes but one solid shot or a flurry where nothing lands doesn't win those rounds......After six something changed though, Bradley chose to dummy or give the perception that he was trying when he really wasnt, swinging wide shots that anybody could sewe let alone a elite athlete like Manny. Bradley decided to toy completely put his jab back into it's hostler and make Manny look good for whatever reason, he was winning the middle of the ring fight but sat on the ropes and invited Manny over without throwing any shots, and it wasn't like Manny caused that change with a punch or something. Looking at Bradley in his corner it appeared as if something was wrong with him, he couldnt even look his trainer in the eye, while Diaz screamed at him over and over in those middle rounds.......But Manny is starting to come on strong taking what Bradley gave to him on a silver platter, even still Manny was missing a lot and Bradley still was diggin to the body..... But I cant co-sign giving Bradley those 7-10 rounds although his defense was sharp, when this muthafukker was playing around and toying just to toy(fukk he thought he was, making the fight hard when you know you aint getting the decision even if Manny relatively looked like shyt in the grand scheme of things. Bradley then came back and won round 11, but lost a close 12 giving Manny the nod.........
Bottom line is I have been watching the sport all my damn life, the vanilla Bradley clearly let up and made Manny look better than he was fighting to ensure that it would be a 3rd rematch, HBO was talking rematch before the cards even came back...........All in all it was a nothing match IMO, all the questions I had didnt get answered, Bradley didnt beat Pacquaio convincingly, Manny didnt look like Prime Manny at all, Manny let up again when Bradley was sitting on the ropes egging him on once again forcing us to question his killer instinct, now we have rematch talks, so analyzing from a non biased POV, this match had more than a tinge of weird shyt going on, now TR can make big Money on a 3rd match......Bottom line is what is talked about the match has shot to do with how Manny dominated, or how Manny razzled dazzled in prime form, no it was about why the fukk Bradley threw his gameplan in the trash halfway after nearly sending that nikka flying out the ring on some Martin Tommy hearns shyt......Manny can skate away without criticism here unfortunately, but Bradley was clearly the story..............
The only positive about Saturday is that Bradley, most likely gained a ass of fans by always fighting to please them, it spite of whether, he's up in the fight or in spite of if he gets ko'ed and lose..............
So good Manny win but Manny won because Bradley allowed him too, this was like the first fight in reverse........Manny didnt dominate one bit, and this fight could have easi.y been scored for Bradley even when he was bullshytting n clowning.......This was a 7-5 fight either way, not no domination....
SN:Anybody still spewing Bradley is a boxer mess can suck my dikk, he's a wild brawler 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, on some Brandon Rios shyt, yes he can box, but when all else fails that tiger shows his stripes instantly with no fukks given.....................
